Haven't used my Jigarex in a few years. I'm about to mount some Look Pivots. For those that have mounted Pivots is the BSL correct or did you have to go a few mms shorter on the heel to get the forward pressure right?

I end up on the back edge of the middle knurl on mineQuote:

That sounds ok. I'll do a practice mount before to double check.Quote:

Bump cuz i love me sum jiggyrex.
Anybody got a marker plate (for squires) and/or an attack plate for sale? Or for loaning on the front range?
Anyone have a jigarex they would be willing to lend me for a week or two? Somewhere around the seattle area preferable.
I'm interested in making printable jigarex compatible plates a la these from my binding jig:

Back to this - does anyone have an Attack plate to sell - or to loan on the front range?Quote:

Not the end of the world since getting the toe right is key, then I could finish by hand, or even mark the fore-aft on the ski and then use the jig for drilling on those hole point. But I'm thinking of drilling new holes in the plate and making a set of heel holes for attacks. Of getting a piece of plastic - like a drill jig for cabinet pulls - and making a heel plate out of that.
Anyone tried anything like this? Am I an idiot? Do they make attack plates and I'm just not seeing them?
Edit: After looking at the paper templates I'm kind of thinking maybe the rear plate is mis-labeled and they sent me the wrong one. The one they sent has both hole sets for the heel very close together, but it's supposed to have the fronts close and the rear more widely spaced. Baffled.
They sent you the wrong one.Quote:

Looks like a miss production, maybe a demo track? Definitely not the standard AttackQuote:

I have at least one more of these Attack mounts to do - hopefully Tognar can get me the right plate. A little worried the whole run is off though.

Thanks for the info guys. Hopefully I can get my hands on the right one from Tognar.
I’d have loved if it was for the demos. I’d buy that from you.Quote:

Just as a followup, I went through every paper template I could find and didn't see anything that matched this. Crazy.Quote:

Yeah, I was half kidding, but worth a shot out of curiosity.Quote:

Maybe Tyrolia demo toes? They’re pretty far apart but who knows?Quote:

I've always mounted my own fucking skis by hand with paper templates but we're refreshing the whole family ski quiver soon and I'm gonna have 4-5 pairs to mount in one go. That finally seems like it's worth it to spring for a jig to make life easier.
As someone who has had a few issues with the OG Jigarex and the teeth for centering, looks like this version may have solved it.Quote:

eBay listing with three plates. Not mine.

Just bought a Jigarex from VTFreeride. Comes with Dynafit speed turn2 / radical and Plum race plates I don’t need. PM if in need. $20 local (Burlington VT)/$30 shipped for each plate.

I need to mount up a pair of Salomon strive 16 bindings. I do not see a specific mounting plate for these offered by Jigarex. Is it the same pattern as the STH2?
I got an upgrade kit this weekend. Easy enough to swap, but they apparently have 2 “different” arms for these that you are supposed to match up. One has one little “tab” and the other has 2. They’re supposed to match up. I was sent three 2’s and one 1. I let themQuote:

Seems like a small thing, but I think they could take 20 seconds to do that. The drill hole bushings also have a little “play” to them that none of my OG plates have. Hmmm… ?
I’m a little concerned about what the corners being cut. I know it’s just TGR, but a little bit of precision is still in order on binding mounts.
How can you tell if you have the old arms verses the new ones? Mine have green lock dials. Is that the old style?Quote:
