Great News!!!

I finally got the DPH Jig and it looks great! It has the alignment pins and this baby is solid... I am going to bend a flat or two tonight and take lots of pics plus mark up the jig to help prevent some of the dammage that I saw with the old jigs. You will see in the pics...

I am starting the list now and the first two people on the list will be asked to pay. Sorry for the delay but this new jig is well worth the delay.

I used the jig tonight to bend a flat and the jig does a really nice job. I took 140 pics of the process and tools and it will take me some time to go through the files and pick the best and most important pics and cut down the images to a reasonable size and add text... I will try to get this done as soon as possible. The files at this point take up 118MB of disk space!

Following is a photo of the tools that I will be shipping:


Note:
DPH Flat Bending Jig
One LONG Piece of Steel to be used BETWEEN Press arm and Jig
One Short Piece of Steel to be used between jig and hammer when poping jig out of form after bending flat
1 4mm Allen Wrench
1 5mm Allen Wrench
Can of all purpose grease and small brush to apply it with
(Note I will not be shipping my 12-ton press so you will need one to use the jig!)

I have uploaded a bunch of pics of the flat I bent tonight including some side by side pics of my new bent flat next to a 100% OOW receiver that I own. You can browse thos pictures here:

I am #2 on the list. I paid today and I am ready to go. Well, not really...my press is arriving on the 13th :D and my flats should be here any day. The timing should be perfect, since #1 could have it for more than a week right?

Great! I just sent my paypal payment as well!

I did hear from DarkKnight and he will be paying soon. I will send the jig UPS Ground (remember we want a tracking number) so if he pays today and I can get this shipped today I really doubt he will be done before next weekend.

As an aside, if you look at my pics of my receiver you will see some scratches on the flat I bent. This was a new flat for me and it seemed that the steel was a little harder then the tapco flats I have used in the past as it seemed to take more force to bend these. This may be the reason for the scratches but these scratches will buff out and will be covered later.

I think if I was to have helped the jig out by LIGHTLY starting the bend before I put the jig "die" into the "form" that there may have been less marking as well. If anybody does decide to put a little pre-bend of the flat just remeber to be careful on how you do this to ensure that the bend occurs at the corner where you want the bend and not somewhere else... The other fix might be to sand and buff the top edge of the jig to remove the rough edges but as I said before, I never had these scratches with other flats so it may be something with this new flat I tried to use.

SIGN ME UP! For the second round, that is!

I was on the first rotation, and everything worked perfect. I just would like a few more bent flats. I only did two the first time around.
