    Not perfect but it would work. Too bad I also would need to buy a drillpress :(

    8) 8) :drool: Is that clearance for internet only, or is it good in stores too? I might have to work a trip to HF in sometime in the next day or so.

    I just stick mine in my bench vise and run it on my Milwaukee Hole Shooter.

    The bushings in these wear pretty rapidly, then they start cutting sloppy. Better than a grinder or fishmouthing with the chop saw, though.

    I like the ones from M-Tech Supply or JD-2. They're about 5 times the price of this one, though. You could arguably buy 2 or 3 of these and still come out ahead for about 5 years.

    I have an Ol' Joint Jigger, and have even bolted it to a CJ bumper to notch tubing while building a cage at a friend's house. (He didn't even have a vise)

    What I have found here in Denver, is that if you make a copy of the internet sale ad and take it to the store, they'll give it to you for the same price, assuming the store carries that particular item.

    I've also found that if you go to the store and they don't have it in stock, they can order it for you and have it shipped to the store. You go and pick it up and save the shipping $$$ in the process. You have to ask though, they won't offer to do this. ;)
