simple solution to a age old problem

[Steve knight]

had a customer bring me this ornament that had a broken off dowel that held it in place. well I figured this simple jig that held the part vertical and guided the drillbit for accurate placement. took about 6 minutes start to finish measuring cutting assembly and drilling. I just nailed it together since it was a one use job.

it was one of those things that just poped into my head while I was on the phone with the customer.
