looks like everyone is using some version of the bandsaw. I am going to play around with that and figure it out. Rockfish, i will do a search for the pics

Build a small v-block. Start by marking 1/16" off the center of the jig and then take it from there. You can also save a blank and the next time you make that particular plug drop it in the v-block line up of the blade to the lip and adjust from there.

I find it tough to do with the square ends on as almost every bandsaw drifts a bit. Plus if the blank isn't squared with the ends you have more of a problem.

Nobody calls me Lebowski. You got the wrong guy. I'm the Dude, man.
