Binghams drilling jig ?
« on: December 08, 2011, 09:29:00 PM »
I have access to the eqipment to make a drilling jig like the one Bingham sells. Does anyone know the deminsions on this jig. I noticed there is 4 holes. I would assume one set for the limb and one for the riser. If someone has a better set of plans I would love to have a copy. I probably won't be making more than 4 or 5 bow so a simple jig should work. Thanks, Don

Don, why don't you just buy my old one (half price) that I don't use anymore and save some time and $$$? It has been used for about 20 bows, $30.00 tyd.

Don if you have milling equipment why not build a better one. I built one and used drill bit sleeves and they work great. Do a search here and I think you will find pics of several.

Don, I will get you the dimensions later today for the bingham jig. With little effort you can make a better jig. The bingham jig I have came to me and the scribe marks were something like .050" off and that makes for a nice lightning bolt shaped bow. I had to grind down the edges and re scribe new guide lines.
