CatColorado Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 See! Now I know I'm the only one without a gluing jig. Sigh. Earth and Tree is a great company. Someday I'd like to get one of their kits. I felt so bad when Tom died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapchap73 Posted July 28, 2011 Author Share Posted July 28, 2011 The jig was on sale :whistle: I am not ordering I mean encouraging you to get one right now because I am not an enabler in any way. Nor do I want to get back at you at all for the sdk miniatures link you posted a while back. Nope, not me. :nonono: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatColorado Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 No need. Brae got to me, ...and so did Micromark. I finally ordered a jig, it was on sale and included an extra set of 8 magnets for a total of 16. I wish the economy would pick up, this stress spending is going to kill me.

chapchap73 Posted August 6, 2011 Author Share Posted August 6, 2011 Congratulations! Mine came last week; I can't wait to get it all dirty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatColorado Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I was waffling again, but then I thought about how getting my hair cut cost about as much as the jig and I never complain about that... so what the heck. Will your litchfield fit in the jig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caseymini Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Kathryn, another way to look at it is...How many things can you get for under twenty dollars that will last a lifetime???After having mine for over twenty years, I am about to start having birthday parties for my jig!LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatColorado Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 You are right, and I know I will use it alot. I'll have to find a good spot for it so it doesn't get lost or buried. No good having a jig if I can't find it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapchap73 Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 I have not even had time to open the kit any more than to look at the directions :angry: so I don't know if it will fit. I am planning on making(or trying to make) most of the furniture for this house and I know that will fit. I didn't even attempt for my Vermont because I knew I would have crooked everything if I did!

fov Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I bought some Dremel saw blades from Micro-Mark a few months back and now I seem to get a catalog from them every two or three weeks. I swear the last one I got, they sent me the same catalog twice. :o I'm always so overwhelmed looking at their catalogs, my eyes just glaze over from all those tools. I'll have to hunt down this gluing jig... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapchap73 Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 It is item #60304 on the micro mark site. They gave me a catalog as well, and I can totally relate to your glazed over eyes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatColorado Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 If you sign up for their emails, sometimes they send out specials that aren't in their catalogue. Here's the one for the jig plus extras: http://www.micromark.com/Magnetic-gluing-jig-special,10080.html?Ns_md=Email&Ns_sc=Marketing&Ns_cn=11033SAB&ns_pc=11033SAB&Utm_source=Marketing&Utm_medium=Email&Utm_campaign=11033SAB If the link doesn't work, it's item 60304SP2. It's only good for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I line the bottom of my jig with a sheet of waxed paper folded to fit with the edges sticking up so that glue won't stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatColorado Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Thanks Kathryn! Guess what I'm getting for my birthday? Order it now, that code is only good for a couple of days. Of course, they may offer a better special too... it's a gamble that way. I had planned on ordering extra magnets, so this worked out well for me. We're all gettin' jiggy! Sorry... bad joke... I'll go home now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husband ordered it last night for me right when I emailed him the link. My birthday is still 6 weeks away, but he was happy to go ahead and get that out of the way. He says I'm hard to buy for, so he loves it when I send him links and instructions. I'm excited, because now I won't have to go raid the lego bucket anymore!

CatColorado Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Awesome! We'll all have to post "Magnetic Jig in Use" pics. lol I figured I might as well get mine now, because I doubt my family would get one for me. They don't like me using tools for some reason; I think it makes them nervous. My father was not happy when I bought the scroll saw. I seem to remember him saying, "You're going to lose your eyes and fingers using that." I'm not sure what horrors they imagine I could get into with a jig, but that's family for you.
