Great video! I use a Sminof style joint but have never been super happy with it. I'd like to learn this process. Time to build a jig. By the way I'm using the varnish you recommended and sold my first two mandolins with a nice varnish finish!

Nice video Austin. I'm just about to start fitting the necks on two mandola's. Glad I saw this when I did. I needed to revise my current process.

Yes it does. Also, I can add a shim at the nut end if I want to change the angle.

What angle is the board (angle fixture) the jig is sitting on fixed at?

JimB73C I honestly have no idea! It’s been ten years since I made and started using this jig.(I still use it!) Really though, it depends on the size and design of your dovetail. Do a drawing to determine the amount of taper you want and that determines the angle of the fixture.
