Adjustable wheel jig designs
Go_Time Monday, 12/3/2018
Hello All, I have been lerking on this site for a while now and just recently made an account. I have seen a few wheel jig designs and they all look great! So I thought I would share my design for an adjustable wheel jig. It is a super simple design and slides in and out to accomodate any size HW. Enjoy!

Nice work! I need to make myself a new jig. I like that your one side is fixe and you just slide the other.
That’s something I need to work on. I had rows of pencils glued together. Now I just use 2 sets of 2 pencils glued together and line them up the best I can along a piece of lined paper. It’s not at all ideal but I think they mostly roll straight afterwards. Lol. Great design!
Ok... I feel stupid asking this.... but here we go...
What is the purpose of these jigs?
I made this one for castings that won't sit properly in a standard flat top jig.
I love all of these jigs. It has given me some ideas of making my own. Thank you guys so much. ????
Cool, I had forgotten all about this thread. I have updated my jig a couple of times since the original post. This is version 3.0...or 4.0 cant remember. Hope it helps.
This is by far the best jig ive made so far. And the red hash marks really help believe it or not.
Wow, one of these would be super helpful.... I never knew such technology existed!

I took it one step further and designed an outer frame to square up the wheels

You can see the front wheels are at 1.2 inches
As are the rear axles.
If you put a little thought into it, it's pretty easy to design one yourself.
