So, I mentioned I had some questions to ask, and was happily told to ask away..
Working my way from up from the bottom of my list, let's start with question #4,781,632, if that's ok with you all. :)
I have a pile of tools that I purchased years ago, then never had the chance to put to use. One of them being a Leigh D4. I'd like to make a case for the jig, and have that be the first project I make with the D4. Has anyone here made one themselves, or know of a plan ? I would prefer to just follow someone else's plans for now, rather than also design it. Requirements I would like are to be able to store a set or two of the fingers templates, should I aquire any, and any other hardware the jig normally needs.
There is a rumor going around that Leigh's manual has a plan in it. Mine does not, and the kind folks at Leigh confirm this is not the case as well.
There is also a link here (http://www.newwoodworker.com/d4case.html), but that's not exactly what I'm looking for..
I vaguely remember, either a magazine article, or a webpage about one, but I'm not sure. The Alt-Timers I keep hearing about kickin in I guess..
So, to put it simply, call it laziness, or lack of experience, or whatever you wish, I'd like to 'borrow' a plan, if anyone has made something similar.
Thanks in advance !
