DIY glueing jig
Hi all,
Just a quick and easy DIY jig for glueing up wallets or anything with a bend in it. Just glue two boards together with something else on the inside corner for support. Then use a hand plane or sander to round over to top edge. I see these around on etsy or instagram every now and again so I thought I would just make one since i'm in the process of making some billfolds anyway :)
Hope it helps somebody!

Hey Matt,
I didn't really pick any particular size, these were literally just 3 pieces of scrap of roughly the same width I had laying around. Cheap pine timber as well. The most important part is the center piece being 90 degrees where you glue the other 2 boards. That results in a 45 degree jig, but it doesn't need to be ultra precise since it's just to impart a bend and not for any permanent angle setting. The length or width really depends on your preference and the space you have, this one was made for billfolds and notebooks for a size reference and fits easily on top of the bench
Hope that helps!
