Looking for Boring Jigs

Better qualify what it is I am looking for....

I am looking for the RED colored installation jig , that would do up to 5 inch backset.....

Not the newer version (138) that still seems to be for sale...

Thanks

Here is what you're looking for.

sorry, "Robot Man" just noticed that the auction has well passed.

g'luck searching..

Thanks for those links, but the first one is the newer type that I don't want....

The second one is the right one , but the listing states that seller will only ship within the USA....

Thanks again for trying.

Thanks for all replies , folks...

Guess I'll just keep my eyes open on Ebay and see what turns up....

Much Appreciated.

Do you remember if it hurt when they dropped you on your head when you were a baby......????

Or were you just born with no brain at all.......??

Oh, gosh.... I got mine (one) about ten years ago. I'd suggest

Mine had the 5 inch. I sawed it off many years ago, I never used the five inch. Not then, not since then.

I figure if someone wants the 5 inch backet enough, they can pay for the new tool. Yes, my jig is red.

If you need a jig for 5 inch backset, I would suggest looking for a Weiser #1963 jig. This used captive drill bits rather than hole saws and was much superior to the Kwikset jig.

One note however, the demand for 5" backset installations is somewhere between slim and none these days. I don't think I have ever used the 5" backset feature except to over drill a 7/8" hole to 1" and if push came to shove I could have done this with a course round file. On the other hand, the jig with the 5" backset does sometimes conflict with moldings applied to the door, where the shorter jig would not.

For those of you who have them and the threads are starting to ware out... I've had a couple of mine Heli-Coiled at a machine shop. The repair will hold up for a couple of years before they start to back out and need to be re-done. And the Heli-Coils are stronger that the original metal of the jig.

Boring jigs? Look here..

Peddle your racist filth somewhere else, we don't want it here.

Nah, ask these guys:

email them. Offer them a few extra $ to ship to you.

Loctite the helicoils.

Please don't feed it. It will never go away.

never

can

same here.. cut that sucker off..
