    Hi all,

    Been a bit of a break since the last video on the Telecaster project due to the day job and spraying taking so long. Anyway here's a quick video on making a side dot marker jig/measure on the CNC router:

    Its Chris, but thanks - I'll add the CAD to the Tele model download at some point as its a useful bit of kit for any 25.5" scale length neck.

    Nice work Chris. Once you have convinced yourself to put time into a jig to make a better job of it, it is always satisfying to put it use.

    For a long time now I've not used a centre drill prior to a 3mm twist drill and found it holds an accurate position on the hole. For large bits I will centre drill though.

    Did you need all that coolant for that job? I'll happily peck drill multiple 3mm holes with just an occasional dab on the drill bit from a brush.

    Otherwise nice work, progressing well.

    Yeah the coolant was a bit over the top - one of the things on my to do list is sort out a decent tap system for that.
