Nice looking outfit. I like your center track that would make it very easy to adjust.

Nice job Mike. Where do you get the T-track (blue) from? I've been looking to build a new wrapper but can not locate the track and hardware.

PS Forgot to mention that I really like the addition of the magnetic strips to hold the blades. I have one on my wrapper and it really helps keep track of the razor blade.

Ellis, I actualy made it, but a friend and new builder had to teach me how to use my router and give me a LOT of instructions on woodworking!!I like the magnets a lot. Basically, I scoured through the pix here and stole a LOT of ideas!!

Awesome job Mike! We learn something new every day if we let ourselves. Don't we?
Stolen ideas? No such thing where ideas and photos and info is as freely shared as here and other sites I frequent!

That is a wonderful jig. On the blue channel piece, am I correct that a t-nut rides in there? Does the metal piece sit in a straight dado cut? Lastly, did you cut the blue channel to length or do them come already cut? That is a great looking job.
