Stan Thomison and Mark Kett donated this fine End graft jig! Its valued near 200.00 so the starting bid will be 1/2 of that. The images show the very jig you will get should you win, there are 2 images of my jig showing how it works. Using this jig, I can cut and install an end graph in less than 15 minuets total time, including set up! This is an awesome opportunity to get one of Marks jigs at the OLF auctions.
Also included but no pictured is a template for making the matching end graph.

THANKS GUYS!

END GRAFT JIG AUCTION HERE

Wish I could take some credit and build them like Mark, but can't even come close or have the vision. Mark is a truly gifted builder of guitars and vision for the jigs he creats, and how they are supposed to work. He does them to do process in line of order and most time for several functions in a set. I just buy them. We do talk on phone some in the process as to what need is, and what I am looking for. He did the same really excellent work on the m&t, neck and fretboard jigs also. I hope to have him in time, build all of the jigs needed to build and some haven't thought of yet. Could I build them in time and do the work, probably. Waste alot of time and wood trying to figure it out, absolutely!!! No the golf clubs not included. I love the Taylor driver and fairway "burner" The iron's I played so many brands over the years, but these Evo's are what I finally liked the best. I never thought I could or would like any better than the original Cobra's, but these are longer and straighter for me. Besides, they were free, as I won them in a city champonship, using a set like them for 3 days of tourney

Not to step on any toes, but my compulsive editor's mindset forces me to point out that that there is a jig for routing end grafts. I'm not entirely sure what data one would present on an end graph, but I doubt it'd relate to cavity at the butt-joint of some guitar sides

Is this jig designed to be used with a collar? If so, how much larger is the jig's template than the final cavity? IE. what size router bit vs what size collar? How do you make the wedge to fit?

template guide I think is 1/2 with 1/4 bit. I will verify that with Mark, but think that is right. Lance may know, he has used it.
