Thanks

Rare as hens teeth........

Used to be used by shops that had large wheels loaded with lots of jigs to get all of them at the same angle.  I have not seen one in a long time!  Not to say someone doesn't have one lying around.

Good luck on your search.

I used to have a couple of them to set the jigs on my tables (24 jig LW table and 12 jig RW table).  I never really cared for them.  I do a lot better setting the jigs one at a time with shafts in them.  The gauge get them close but not perfect.  Just my 2 cents.

I agree with Dino, altho I have found a way to set the jigs that works quite well.  Thomas, give me a call.
