Revised our fretboard clamping jig today. We've been trying to come up with a way of clamping the fretboard and making sure that it doesn't shift around during the process. So here's what I came up with:
        

Basically a same idea as last time with some changes. Once side has fixed blocks that will come up to just below fretboard height. The other side has cammed clamps that rotate and pinch everything into place.

Neck glued up


Fretboard on, pinched tight into place.


Simple clamping caul, this time its just 1/2" plywood. The last ones were 3/4" and radiused to match but honestly the 1/2" ply bends just about right on its own.
