David,
Indeed. Make the tools to make the tools, or in my case usually make the gadget to take something to bits or put it back together. On my shelves in the garage I have all sorts of odd-shaped 'things' which I've made to do specific jobs, like the pullers to get the bearings out of my Vertical Mill. The bad news is that I can never throw them away, just in case I have to do the job again.
I think I'll leave the woodwork to you and Col, but some info on the jig would be good 'cause I could always make one. You never know, it might galvanise me.
Digital RPM Meter - shock horror. You need one of these - see attached. Of course on my Chipmaster you just dial it up on the Variator. I must get Jamie to generate a couple of emoticons for 'sticking tongue out' and 'putting thumbs in ears and waggling fingers'
