Does anyone know of inlay jigs that will accept 1.5” rings? I have the ones from Mudhole and don’t have a lot of use for 1.25” stuff. I just got a quote from a machine shop to make some and the cost is way too much.

If you want one you will have to go to a machine shop , an bring what you have an see if they can make what you want ,
you might need to go to a large shop , because of what they will need to do the job , all shops don't have what they need to do what you want ,

Yes thank you. I took them to one shop and was quoted $700 for the set. I’d consider it if I was still building professionally but I only wrap for friends, family, or myself anymore. So I’m not going that route.
