This seems like an interesting tool. Anyone know anything about it? I haven't found anything except this review.

That would be something I'd be interested in especially as it looks like it would work well for all types of indy links, resin, metal, styrene, MK's, etc. Too bad it looks like it never made it to market.

Doesn't look too dificult to machine..... but a Magnetic Jig w. some good straight edges would work just as well.

I got a buddy who is a michinist and modeler. I bet he'll take one look at it and make one. I'll let him know about this and see what he thinks. I see a new tool on my bench in the near future... "Q"

I think it'd take me longer to get to the hardware store and get the knobs... than Mill it out......
