Jigs (Vorrichtungen, Werkstatthilfen) are helpers for difficult standard operations, such as drilling angled holes, making specific cuts, or accurately repeating something.
jig to hold a specific odd-shaped workpiece on top of a table saw sled
They can usually be self-made! Please share your jigs if they can benefit others - it's as easy as labeling them with a meaningful name and creating a corresponding wiki page with instructions! Every page in the "Jigs" category shows up on the bottom of this page for everyone to find.
Good to know for adjustable jigs: M6 screws advance exactly 1 mm per turn.
Ideas
Here are some ideas for commonly needed jigs if you feel inclined to make one:
- bench hook
- shooting board
- table saw sleds
- drill press table
- star knob jig - perhaps one for M6 and one for M8 screws/T-nuts?
- or a fancier one for a variety of shapes
- V-block for drilling into round or angled pieces
- should have a long "V" groove and a second "V" on the side, as shown here
