Little man with the brush will be a shop tech in no time with skills like that. :yourock:

I, too, marked the centre of the jig. Measured to confirm for the first few mounts, now I just eyeball because it's been consistently accurate. Agreed regarding the time savings and ease of use. But,...

I'd disagree, at least for installing inserts - eyeball test is easy to check alignment (if the track has skipped a tooth, it would be easy to tell) and clamps take 2 seconds. I also find the jig...

Hm, I'm in the same boat as scottyb, though I always try to remember to double check alignment and always clamp the jig down to ensure no/less movement

What issues have you/people had in regards to centring/other issues? Curious, as I have used jigarex to mount all our skis and haven't run into an issue, yet, and want to keep it that way...

Gf's Praxis BCs (174?) with inserts for fks and radicals done Tuesday evening, 184 Freerides with holes for radicals, inserts for fks and radicals to come later (hope to use this weekend, no time to...

2) Try forcing the screw in - assuming...

Yep, filled them a while ago with epoxy and a wood dowel (couldn't find dowels of exactly the correct size, but they are close). Didn't get around to it last night - softball, ya know - hopefully...

That be a sweet setup.

When installing helicoils for BF inserts, how does one proceed? Redrill, retap and install? If so, what size do you redrill for? Or, do you just retap the existing insert hole using the helicoil tap...

My issue is not with bit 'walking' or 'wandering' - I'm not a dummy with tools (though no professional). I noticed the error with the templates prior to drilling and did my best to compensate when...

Mounted my own skis for the first time last night - radicals on the new lotus 120s. Damn, it took a lot longer than expected - was up until 2am. Used jondrums deluxe install kit. Worked well, but I...
