I received the jig last night and it appears to have arrived intact.

Thanks QB!

I finally got to look at Jig #1 and it needs some repairs... These juigs are rugged byt after 10-people used the jig things are bent. The bottom plate will need some serious help as the two ends are bent upwards so that the center part of the bottom plate now does not remain flush to the jig. What this means is that the bottom of the flat I just bent required quite a bit of hammer work to get flat.

I will see if I can get a replacement plate... Until then there will just be the one jig out on rotation.

Another option I have is to put my 1st jig back out without the alignment pins... That jig has very little use on it but it would require people to measure their flat to center it in the jig...

I welcome any oppinions on the 2nd option.

Or you could send me the broken jig and I can make a new base plate for it.


I have both a mill and lathe and lots of 1/4 CRS lying around.

I second that motion. I also have a lathe and a mill, I just lack the material...

Point being, QB is lending us his personal tools, we can at least help maintain them. And this after how badly it went the first time.
