Do You Use Kitchen Jigs or Fixtures to Improve Consistency in Recipes?

[johanvick]

When cooking or baking regularly, I’ve noticed that consistency can be just as important as good ingredients. Things like uneven cutting, inconsistent portion sizes, or shifting tools during prep can really affect the final result—especially for baking or meal prep.
That made me curious about how others here use jigs and fixtures tooling in the kitchen, such as cutting guides, dough thickness guides, portion molds, or holders that keep tools steady during repetitive tasks.

• Do you rely on any specific kitchen tools or guides to keep your results consistent?
• Have you ever tried custom or adjustable tools for food prep or baking?
• Do you think purpose-built fixtures actually save time in everyday cooking?

I came across some interesting ideas while reading about how jigs and fixtures tooling are designed for precision and repeatability, which got me thinking about how similar concepts apply to cooking setups as well.
Would love to hear what tools or techniques you all use to keep your recipes consistent and stress-free.
