Official Jigarex thread

[bern43]

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 mine

Does anyone have a jigarex they are willing to sell or know where I can buy one? SVST, Tognar, and BindingFreedom are all out of stock.

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

[bern43]

Went do the practice mount and it turns out I'm missing one of the green bolts that you use to tighten/secure the plates. Likely got lost when I lent the jig out. Any way to easily replace this with hardware store parts? Probably need to just contact SVST.

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?

[MottN]

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?

Has anyone ever added holes to a jigarex plate, or made a new one out of plastic? I just got my hands on a tyrolia/head plate set to mount up some attacks. While the toe plate seems perfect, the heel plate isn't even close to correct fore-aft, and the widths aren't all right - so it must be for older or lower end bindings from tyrolia/head? 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.

Here’s the plate I got. Does this pattern ring a bell for anyone? It’s not an attack I don’t think (so that would mean it’s mislabeled). Attack plates have always been the same I think so it’s not an attack vs attack2 thing, right? Toe side is toward the bottom in the photos.

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

I ended up using the front plate for the toe piece, which worked perfectly. For the heel I used the paper template and ran it back from boot center. Worked ok, mount was right on. Just annoying. 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.

Attack, attack 2, Peak, Mojo are all basically the same heel piece(although some have tabs and some have worm screws).
That's a mislabeled as tyrolia non demo heel plate no question

[EWG]

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.

I’ve got a bad STH2 plate from SVST before. Hole pattern was incorrect in the heel. Plate got replaced. all good now.

mine too, sounds like I should reach out.
I had been using the plate for initial punches and then manually adjusting from there then drilling with my drill block.

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

Did you look at toes?

Not really. Good call.

Edit: Nope. Still nothing.

[CaliBrit]

I’d be pretty surprised at toe holes that far apart!

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

Though this may be all moot, EWG what’s the hole layout for scale? The proportions look off for the Warden 13 Demo (32mm front & 33mm back by 105mm).
