Anybody use a jig to consistently file nocks in your bows? Tried a search but couldn't find anything.

i use some measurements, that i have worked out over time, as to being good starting points.
i go 11 mm down the back, and 20 mm down the belly, square these lines over to the other side, then have  two diagonal lines that i can file to. you can change those measurement to suit your intended tip length,and  bow length.

I do like Wayne. Seems to me there used to be a build along in the "How To" section.

I use a carpenters square and mark them at a 45 degree angle starting 3/4" down from the tip.

I think I remember Apex Predator has a nice jig that he uses. Shoot him a PM and I'm sure he will send you a picture of it. he has posted it here before.
