The VERSA Jig
The VERSA Jig is designed to be the Blacksmith's companion. This one tool can and does replace a shop full of individualy fabricated jigs. This is a perfect tool for high production shops in need of dependable repeatability as well as for the hobbyist who would rather spend time making forged items instead of custom tools.
What's included:
- A New version of our original hook manufacturing jig
- 4 inches diameter X 1 7/8 thick with a 1" X 1" X 2" Bolt on hardy shank ( can be unbolted and replaced with any configuration that you want )
- Approx Two inches thick gets the working face of the jig high enough off the anvil face so your hands and tongs have room to perform their task with comfort and safety.
- Perfect for doing Demonstrations
- You can clear your bench of many single purpose jigs and just grab this one jig to do most any hook / bending encountered in the average shop.
