I am an avid kit builder. I am starting a new 75 meter QRP rig. Before starting to build it I wanted to make some sort of jig to hold the pc board. I know there are a few on the market out there. None of the ones I have tried fit my needs. So, here is a very simple and very cheap jig. The photos are pretty much self explanatory. The 2 things which make this jig a breeze to use :
1. There is a forward angle that is very comfortable to solder components.
2. The board can be slid into the jig as much as possible or as little as needed so as not to damage the components on the component side of the board.
