This is the Lone Buck Guitars Fingerboard Fret Marker Layout Tool sized for the Ukulele. This tool is designed to make the tedious job of laying out fret markers easy and accurate. The clear acrylic layout template is drilled at the top edge with 2mm holes to line up and drill out your edge/side dots. The face of the template also has all frets accurately marked along with 5mm holes for marking out the fingerboard dot locations. There is a centerline etched into the template allowing for accurate alignment along the face of your fingerboard blank.
All markings are etched into the acrylic allowing for long life of the tool. Included (if ordered with blocks) are two end blocks that allow you to set your neck blank up off of your workbench and has adjustment thumb screws for adjustment of the template up and down to align with your fingerboard edge. The template is 4mm thick acrylic 2 1/2" wide (lengths vary by scale) and the end blocks are 3D printed from PLA plastic.
I build these in my home workshop using my CNC router and 3D printing for the end blocks. I made this tool (in a much more crude looking way!) for myself as an avid guitar builder to make the job of laying out the fingerboard frets, markers and side dots easier and more accurate. I figured if I liked it, other builders would like it too. The scale lengths available are 13", 15", 17" and 19". Can be purchased as a set with end blocks or the template can be purchased separately with no end blocks.
Includes the template ruler, two end blocks and two thumb screws if purchased as the complete set. The listing option marked as "without end blocks" come with the template only and no end blocks or screws.
Please note that the photo's of the complete set in use shows the guitar scale. I use this as the standard photo for all of the different models I carry. You will receive the actual scale ruler ordered.
