Jigs
A jig is a custom-made or temporary tool used in manufacturing and woodworking to guide a tool or workpiece, ensuring precision and consistency. It acts as a template or fixture, maintaining proper alignment and positioning during processes like drilling, cutting, or shaping. Jigs improve efficiency and accuracy, reducing errors and speeding up production. They can be simple devices, like a template for drilling holes, or complex assemblies that support automated machinery. Essentially, a jig helps create uniform, high-quality results by controlling how and where work is performed.
