If the center section is actually bent it may be garbage. You cant mill the base falt again because that would change the distance from the bottom of the receiver to the top rail bends. Send me some pics and I will tell you if I can fix it. As for steel, I planed on milling down what was needed anyway.

received jig on 3-30, everything looks ok, i will tig weld the locator pins back in if there is no problems with me doing that. i will also replace the washers that go under the caphead screws, they are pretty messed up.

i will let you know just before i am done with it, to get next persons address.

thanks again...........

ps.
did you get the drive screws yet ken?

I did get the drive screws... thanks! I also have no problems with you tacking the pins if you are sure but you have to be careful not to build up the material of the flat will not sit flush to the bottom plate and it will bend the bottom of the receivers out.

I think I would rather epoxy or a hi-strength loc-tite myself as these pins are only to center the flat... there is no requrement for strength there and the only worry would be that the pins get lost.

As for the other jig, I got hit hard at work with a short notice project and I have not had time to bend up a flat and test the other jig. I hope this weekend I can do it...

The jig body that looks like it is bent has about a 1/8-inch bow to it... I have not took photos yet as every night this week I got home well past dark.

I also got another pelican case so if my first DPH jig with the bottom plate from my second jig will work (I assume it will) I will be able to ship this jig out. I hope that I can get it out on Monday but I really don't want to ship until I am sure it is working correctly...

Quick update as we need to head out... I finally got some time to take photos and to bend up a flat. The lower plate with the alignment pins from the first jig works great with the body of the second jig...

I bent up my flat in under 20-minutes with taking a few photos to provide more detail on how I bend my upper rails. The final flat is as nice as any flat I have ever bent...

Everything is square, the bottom recess for the Mag catch looks great, the top rails are nice...

I also received the Pelican case for the jig and I need to cut some foam so the jig and extras have a home like I did for Jig #3 that some of you got to see.

I will have this jig out on Monday to mightyt11.

The other jig really is beyond hope I am afraid but I will fight with that more later.
