Hey folks,

Before I get started… Andy is cool with me gauging the interest in a vacuum drilling jig used to drill locating pins on fretboards used with Birkonium necks.

The pics below should be self explanatory, complete with the hillbilly depth stop. This works really well for me. The one below is custom to my shape but is there interest in having a universal one that any Birkonium customer could use?

Would be great to get your feedback.

Not a bad idea but he does my fretboards too so I get them already drilled otherwise I'd want one. I've gotten lazy in my old age idunno
