| Jigs and Fixtures This area will be directed towards the art of designing specific jigs and fixtures. Bob and Rick say, "if the specific operation is to make more than one piece the same size and shape then chances are you need a jig and/or fixtures." |

| Registered User Forum Geek | Anyone have any plans for making a fluting jig that I can use to flute my vases that I turn on the lathe. Not a fluting jig that you can cut flutes on a straight spindle, I use one of them often. Mitch |

| Registered User Forum King | Hi Mitch. Not sure I understand the difference. Are you talking about doing straight flutes or 'barley twist'? If you're looking for a straight flute jig, there's a way of mounting a router on an angled base to present the fluting bit side on to the leg while mounted on the lathe. Otherwise, you might need to go for one of those devices that mount a router over the turned work piece and are then hand cranked along while the piece rotates. Bj will point you in the right direction if this is what you're after.
