I like the jig, is that home made or purchased? Oh and the tiger is very nice as well, looking to see it painted up.

Very nice Neil.
Betcha that jig will be on the market by next year and at only $150, it will be considered a bargain! Actually it's quite clever. Maybe you better look into copyright procedures.
