Official Rent Quarterbore's DPH AK-47 Flat Bending Jig - Second Tour

NOTICE!!! This rotation of the Jig at these terms is NOW CLOSED!!!!

I have started a new thread to prepare for a 3rd Roation with different terms. If anybody wants to rent the jig and they are not on the list on Page 1 of this thread then you need to sign up in the new thread here:

http://www.quarterbore.net/forums/showthread.php?t=875

Members as listed below will get the jig as described in this thread before the 3rd Rotation starts!


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My last round of renting my 555th jig just didn't work out so great and it became extremely frustrating for me because people didn't let me know when they got my tools, they don't take care of the tools when they used them, they didn't let me know when they are done, they took forever to ship them to the next person when they were done, they didn't let me know when they were shipped.... or they simply lied to me. I am very reluctant to try this again but I have had at least three people contact me to express interest in renting one of my jigs and honestly most guys where great.

The problem is still that the shipping from me plus any rent plus shipping back to me would cost a person about $56 or more (est $18 shipping w/ insurance + $20 rent + $18 to return). That is just too much money and that is why I was trying to run the rotation as I had done before so, I am going to give this ONE last try.... but before you sign up for this list:

You must agree to the following terms:

1. You will POST IN THIS THREAD when you receive the jig.
2. You will POST IN THIS THREAD when you are done using the jig.
3. You will pay shipping plus insurance for $200 WITH A TRACKING NUMBER.
4. You will POST IN THIS THREAD what the tracking number is as soon as you ship.
5. You MUST subscribe to this thread or allow e-mail from the board so that I can let you know when you should pay your rent and so that you will know what is happening.

As for costs, I am going to stick with the original cost structure...

Your Rent of $20 includes The use of a DPH Arms Flat bending Jig and my grease to do upto five flats. Each extra flat after five I would like to request that an extra $0.50 be paid to help cover the additional wear on the jig. You will also be expected to then ship the jig to the next person as described above. I will try to have two people paid in advance so that the jig can keep moving...

Examples:

You Bend 1 to 5 flats - $20 + shipping to next person
You Bend 6 flats - $20 + shipping to next person + $0.50 in the box)
You Bend 20 flats - $20 + shipping to next person + $7.50 in the box (15 extra at $0.50)
You host a build party and you all do 40 flats = $20 + shipping to next person + $17.50 in the box (5 included + 35 extra at $0.50/each)


Now, if you have someone over to use the jig or two people on the list live close to each other... you can build together or share the tools... all I ask is that you POST WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE and be aware that the person that is signed up here is responsible for my tools.

I will maintain a list here of who is on this list and where the jig is at based on the posts THAT YOU MAKE BELOW telling EVERYBODY where the jig is at....

So, please post below if you want on this list and your post asigns you your position in the line...

I don't know... alot depends on how this goes... Just the same, I am only renting the flat bending jig so if you have access to a press there is no reason to have to build anytime soon. I think I have about 4 or 5 flats that are all bent from testing the jigs that I still have not finished. These are now AK receivers and I keep them in the top of the gun safe so when I want to build I can just dig one out....

It's up to you, but flats are about $15 (or less) so you could order 5 or even 10 and bend them up and just put them away for any future builds you may want to do. With the jig I include everything you need except the press and a 12-ton press will likely do anything you need to ever do and you can get one for under $125.

Either way, if I am still renting the jig you can get it then or I can add you to the list when you have a press you can use.

Ummm, what makes you think I have these? You do know I am not an SOT, right? I do have some info from the Patent Office but it would take me longer to find it then it on one of my old disks then it would take you to search the US Patent Office for Glock and get it yourself...

UPDATE ON THE JIGS

I received BOTH jigs this week Weds and Thursday and bot jigs came back in good shape. I have a surprize for you all in that you will NOT be getting either of these jigs however! I just purchased a DPH jig that I will be sending out for this rental period. The DPH Jig has been shipped and I should have it next week.

I will be selling one of my two 555th jigs. The jig I will be selling is my Jig #2 from my previous rotation and I am looking to sell that for $100 + shipping. If anybody on the list wants that jig you have essenially first dibs (I did offer it to another guy) and first person that says they want it gets it...

I will be listing the jig for sale tomorrow or Sunday (9/3 or 9/4/05) at latest. I will be starting the list on the first post as soon as I have the DPH jig and I am sure that there is no issues with it. I will bend a flat and take some new pics and post directions as the DPH jig is essentailly the same as the 555th jig but I see damage on my 555th jig where guys just didn't do what they should have done. I hope with better instructions my tools will be better taken care of.

QB
