Hi Clark, I try wherever I can, and that's entire vertically laminated capped bridges - not just caps. <G> >If I build one it will be similar to the Renner tool. About twenty years ago, I thought I ought to be boring my own hammers and built a jig that looked disturbingly like the current Renner, only smaller. Too small, actually, and I never worked it out to my satisfaction and pitched it some years later. Some day, maybe I'll decide my jig is too ugly to live any longer and build a Renner-like one too. I don't know if this has come up on the List or not, but I was told the Renner jig isn't calibrated in degrees, but at 100 tics per 90° (I think), so anybody using one had better measure angles with the Renner gauge if they expect to do it by the numbers. Can anyone verify or dispel that please? Ron N
