Elmer Guitar

Love the binding router jig. I would suggest that you make available 2 additional support brackets for the sled. I found that having a bracket at the neck and tail blocks made the whole thing more stable. I do a lot of cutaway acoustics and would like to use six brackets. One each at the neck block, tail block, both sides of the waist and both sides of the lower bout. Are any additional brackets available. If so. I would like to order two more. Just makes the whole system more stable under the weight of the router in the jig. Otherwise a great tool at a great price.

I decided to try the Nut Saddle Sander after trying to sand the bottom of a new PRS string nut by hand and ruining it very quickly. I was able to sand the second string nut in the 2-pack with this tool and maintain a perfect angle between the bottom and the face surface that contacts the fretboard. So I had success on the first try. I consider myself a prosumer in luthier skills. I have some work to do on having patience when working with things like string nuts and fret leveling for sure. I almost sanded too far, but ended up with a great setup. I spent thirty minutes or so practicing the technique for positioning the string nut in the clamp and measuring the results. It's very easy to maintain the square bottom, but for me it took some practice to keep it parallel *end to end* to the bottom surface (with the thumb screws). I used a caliper and I'm sure there's a better way of measuring it more consistently. For the price, I can't think of a way to improve the design that would make this fundamentally better. Maybe a finer thread pitch on the thumb screws for a higher "resolution". It's well built and with patience anyone should be able to achieve excellent results. I skipped trying any of the many less expensive versions (plastic, etc) and I'm glad I did.

So far this seems to work really good. For the money and easy to set up and use it is going to be a worth while purchase.

I'm not a professional luthier I just like to work on my own gear. I just started re-fretting one of my projects that has been sitting for a couple years, and this is removing most of the stress of setting the frets. It is going to save me a lot of time in the process. Tool is easy to use with minimal learning curve. The radiused caul inserts are very accurate and made the setting quickly.
I would recommend this tool to any amateurs out there looking to do their own work.

Definitely would recommend this item

Finally I found the right tool for binding preparation

I am very happy with the purchase. Quality tool, nothing to complain about

It took me a bit to figure out a few things with the gauge, so user error. Once sorted, it works perfectly. I love it and shipping was fast. Thank you!!!

Same quality, less than half the cost, and on sale to boot!

Great tool!

I ordered the Gibson 24.750 template along with the miter box and am impressed with the build quality but I did not receive the template that I ordered. I received the Fender template instead. After contacting the company, they have agreed to send me the correct order once it is back in stock. Excited to start on the next build.

Does the job. Great price.

A straight edge isn't complicated. It just needs to be straight and fit necks with different lengths. This is a lightweight tool that does the job at a responsible price.

Howdy from Texas, I ordered three (3) IYV headless basses direct from the Vietnamese manufacturer during Covid, knowing they'd probably need setting up. Oh boy, do they. I have to lower the single bridges to make the basses playable, and the Elmer router base and Dremel 3100 tool will make the job fun to do. Very well priced, too. Thumbs up.
