Grand damper jigs

Jig, or piano itself. Eyeballing doesn't cut it here.

  When I re-felt a set of grand damper heads, I always use jigs when gluing on monochord, bichord, and 2 trichord pieces. The jig aligns the front and back pieces so that they're perfectly in line with each other- -this makes regulation much easier. It's hard enough to do an A-1 damper job normally, but to try to do it when the front and rear dampers don't line up on some damper heads is near impossible. Is the use of jigs common among technicians, or am I the odd ball out there?
