Heh, story of my life. I was asking for a friend (no, really!) so I'll just pass the bad news along. Thanks anyway.

I took your PDF, remeasured everything several times over with a metal ruler and feel pretty confident about numbers I've put into the PDF. I noted which front holes go with which bindings as it is noted on the jig and where the center line is at 190mm. I'm attaching that image below (my pdf was too big for the forum after edits). Is this now enough to be a functioning template or turned into one and can someone do whatever needs to be done to it for it to function as such if not?

I can adjust this easy enough and convert it to a template. Did you print the PDF and put your jig over it to visually align holes?
The 134mm radius you added in lieu of 139mm arc drawn is impossible if the other 134mm radius remains. Did you verify the vertical dimensions? What is your margin of error for each dimension? Generally, I would first wonder why vertically and laterally binding holes wouldn't be to the mm or at least 0.5mm where a radius would be to the nearest 0.1mm.
An alternative approach is to set the jig up on a board or ski with paper on it and punch with 5/16" punch or drill bit or draw holes with a 5/16" pencil or pen. Then you can measure directly on the paper.
Are there any mag coupons for Binding Freedom floating around? I need to place a rather large order for inserts and some Jigarex plates and a coupon would be nice.
Yeah PM Rontele he can hook you up.
C’mon that joke never gets old.
Try SlideWright for a Maggot discount.
Many thanks for this template! I successfully mounted a pair of Atomic STH2s using this template last night and the holes were all bang on. I was a little nervous when eyeballing my boot length before mounting, so I did a test mount on plywood and it turned out just fine. I ended up moving to the 330 bsl line for my 325mm boots, and I'm still almost at the rear of the binding's adjustment range, so the test mount was a good idea I think.
Is there a beast 14 template out there somewhere?

From what I can tell, the Beast 16 and Beast 14 have identical patterns - thus the Beast 16 template should work fine.
There's one on BF's site:
http://www.bindingfreedom.com/paper-tempaltes/
[Direct: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0Sn...t1dnFPcEE/edit ]
As always, a test mount, on scrap wood, first would be good, or at minimum, lay your binding on top of the template and verify that it looks good (screw holes are where they should be), and has approximately the right spacing for your boot.
Beast 14 toes are totally different from Beast 16 toes. Heel pieces are identical, IIRC.
My bad then. I thought I saw pic of a beast jig that had the toes and heels of the 14/16 marked as identical. (i.e. Red was Beast 16 / Green was Beast 14, and was the same sets of holes for both.)
[But, as always I can't find the post now when I need it - I thought it was in this thread...]
Ah, I did find it, and yup, I'm wrong. https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...42#post4344942
But the post below that says the Radical2 and the Beast 14 use the same toe appears to be correct.
There's this:

[But how much can you trust me now, eh?! :) ]
I think I'm going to combine the radical2 toe template with the beast 16 heel, and just line it up using the bindings and my boot. Thanks for the help guys

Just picked up some new junior 4FRNT skis and need a paper JUNIOR BINDING TEMPLATE for some 2017/2018 Tyrolia AC's. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks in advance!
I mounted my New HOJI yesterday with a Template I found on here for the STH2. I double checked the scale and it was scaled correctly. I put the 335 line of the template on my mount line. Problem I'm having is my 335 bsl boot requires the binding to be all the way back in the adjustment and once the FWD pressure is set it's maxed out. Shouldn't I be in the middle of the adjustment area?
It's my 7-8th time mounting bindings my self. 1st time having a problem. Wondering if I should re-mount them at 345...
Question for the collective...
I have skis with Pivots and I'm wondering if the Fritschi pattern would play nice for the same BSL, both on the line.
Anyone know, or have templates for both handy and can check?
I'd rather know if a definitely NO before pulling the Pivots and eyeballing. Thanks!!
Mounted some sollyfit plates with the paper jigs. They are $$$
Howdy--
First post--and can't figure out how to search this thread yet. Just picked up a pair of Blizzard Cochise skis and 2016 Look Pivot 12 bindings. Does anyone know what binding template I should use:
Thanks!
Look Pivot axial (PX) Look Pivot axial II
Just use the FKS paper template from this thread. However, since you seem unable or unwilling to bother looking at the templates to determine whether either template you mentioned matches your actual binding's hole pattern (they don't), I'd strongly advise doing a test mount on a scrap piece of wood first.
Do yourself, and your new Cochises, a favor and read through some of this before proceeding. And don't worry about searching this template thread, just read a few pages of it til you get the idea.
Good luck.
Sorry I missed this. Two of the toe holes will be close (Pivot vs. Vipec/Evo/Tecton) if you mount for the same BSL at the same location.
I don't have a problem with this and mounted with inserts for the same BSL, at the same location for both bindings on my Quixotes.
When I get to my laptop laptop later in the day, I'll upload the overlap pattern I drew.
