Toolmaking - Jig Maker

A jig maker is another term for a tool and die maker or fixture maker, usually in woodworking or in the metal industries. The standard differentiation of jigs from fixtures is that a jig is what mounts onto a workpiece, whereas a fixture has the workpiece placed on it, into it, or next to it. (The terms are sometimes used interchangeably, but most toolmakers consider this improper usage.) A jig maker needs to know how to use an assortment of machines to build devices used in automation, robotics, welding, tapping, and mass production operations.
