and A LOT less set up time.


That's what tempts me towards the jig that Josh House is producing. Rod mentioned it earlier. Seems to give great results with a lot less setup (drama) than the jigs requiring a body cradle.

But then there's the chance of doing what Hesh mentioned, failing to maintain solid contact with the dumbbells, that keeps me from selling my LMI jig and diving in.

Richard. Glad to hear this is the one you like. Yep, I'm thinking the standard one is right for me. Even if I do an occasional shallow body I should be able to make it work.

Thanks Richard, I just pulled the trigger and ordered the standard version, plus a new Bosch colt and a bunch of new end mills. Sure hope my wife doesn't see this post !!!

I have yet to decide which type of binding jig I will use...

Ernie, you might be on to something. That would be easier than getting her out of the house when the delivery comes.
