Ninth video initiating novice or home machinists to jig and fixture design. Jigs and fixtures are simple and effective tools that can increase productivity in the home shop when identical multiple parts must be produced. More specifically, this video looks at machining a vice held plate jig using a shaper, a drill press and a round column mill. Increase part accuracy and increase the rate of production while using existing tools, why not!!! As for all THATLAZYMACHINIST videos, this video is produced for novice , garage or beginner machinists. You can find all my videos as well as project drawings and course notes on my website THATLAZYMACHINIST.COM

Thanks for understanding that I am a professional toolmaker and teacher but I am not a professional video producer (and it shows). I produce these videos for fun as a little retirement project that lets me give back a little of what was passed on to me by so many amazing trades people most of whom, sadly, are no longer with us.
