My
first round of renting my 555th jig just didn't work out so great and my
second round of renting my DPH jigs went better but I still learned that the jigs are not lasting long enough to pay for the jig before they need to be replaced!
For this third round of Rental the price is being increased to $30 from the $20 I asked in the 1st two rounds.
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 $300 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 $30 includes The use of the 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 - $30 + shipping to next person
You Bend 6 flats - $30 + shipping to next person + $0.50 in the box)
You Bend 20 flats - $30 + 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 = $30 + 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 ($300 see below).
The value of these tools is $150 and if the tools get lost or damaged during this rotation the person that that has posession of the tools shall be responsible for the $150 + $100 for the case + $50 fee for me to get new tools ($300 total). This is why I say that you must pay insurance and get a tracking number... if this is a problem, please don't sign up!
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...
