Gabby, that is great for pieces with large cut-outs, but how about fret work with tiny, lacy cut-outs. You wouldn't be able to see where to center the hole in the aid. Maybe if the scrap wood was cut in two, thru the drill hole. It could be lined up with the small place to be cut and the drill bit held against it. Haven't tried that tho.

  Hi Pat. you can use a piece of Lexan then instead of metal. I like lexan instead of plexiglass cause plexi will shatter and chip easy...

Yes, I like the idea of the Lexan. Hmm, must find out where to get some.
