You're welcome! No big deal, really. I bought 50 sticks of basswood from National Balsa, 1/4" X 3/4" for a total of 200'. They don't make it all that precise in terms of dimensions, I guess because they supply it to people who don't have precise size requirements. I ripped it all to slightly less than 3/4" and then ran it through the drum sander to get it to .140", the same size as the width of my flat top rip blade. After that, I made the spacing jigs. One for the "Square Dance" and one for the "Asa-No-Ha". I learned after the "Asa-No-Ha" that I should have made the width 1/2", so it's pretty thick. The "Square Dance" project I made from 1/2" wide pieces. It looks better with the smaller width sticks.

Thinking back, if, by jig, you mean the ones that guide the chisel when making the Kumiko pieces, yes, that took me some time. I made a double set out of some 8/4 red oak I had laying around. Kumiko was an itch I needed to scratch, and I pretty much did that with these two projects. I may do more at some point, now that my arthritic knee pain has eased up from cortisone injections and I can stand in front of the equipment. Plus, I have a bunch of remnants.
