Very nice use of a Leitz jig borer

I would love to know what model David uses. Those are hard to find.
I wonder- if using a jig borer, why use endmills and drills- every hole cut with multiple tooth cutters
theoretically has some runout- or at least, wouldn't be as geometrically round as a bored hole.
Why not finish the holes all with single point boring cutters?
Ultimate accuracy, especially when combined with a jig borer...
I'm betting that I'm missing something though.
I love the Knew Concepts titanium truss birdcage jeweler's saw he uses too. Beautiful tool,
I researched them further after I saw it here. I've wanted to try a Knew Concepts saw for years.
I can see they are extremely well made.
Loving every installment, hoping for many more. If David wrote this up as a book, I'd definitely
find myself a copy. I'm happy enough to see his work here though! Such dedication in one's work
is really inspiring to see. Makes me glad to be a Purist.
