Has anyone tried the Trumpeter handrail jig? Looks like an interesting tool for a small price.

I have that set. It's great for making field applied hand rails. If you want to replace grab handles, you will need a different tool.

Thanks for the response. I am looking at replacing the handles on a T-55 engine deck with wire.
Do you have a suggestion for another tool to look at?
