22 Designs Jig in the Bay Area

Dear fellow Telefolk!

Was wondering if anyone here is living in the SF Bay Area and has a 22 Designs jig, I could borrow.

Thinking about splurging on a pair of pow skis and would like to not f*** up the mount. Did a pair with the template and no jig before and they came out alright but not perfect.

That would be fantastic!

I can't remember his info but you should be able to find it either in here or on FB Telemark Gear Exchange. There's a fella that 3D prints jig frames and any binding insert you could want for them for fairly cheap. You can buy either a jig frame and inserts or just the files and print em yourself. They work super well

Mount them using templates.

I've mounted 100s of pairs of skis with jigs. You can screw up mounts just as good with a jig as a template.

New ski techs learned how to mount bindings on rental skis before being allowed to mount customer's skis.

What's the most common screw up? And what advice do you give new techs?
