The Custom Builder Cork Slicer and Checkerboard cutting jigs (MHCJ‐1) are all that you will need to create the ultimate in custom cork and Eva Handles. With these two jigs you will be able to slice cork or EVA into discs of 1/8” or smaller and cut rings into checker board wedges 1/4, 1/6, 1/12 of the diameter of the ring.
Both jigs are designed to be used with the Custom Builder Blades (MHSAWBLADES) which are sold by the dozen, and the Custom Builder Saw (CRBSAW) which will come with 12 saw blades. The blades are 0.007” thick and the cutting surface is 3” in length. Because of the precision cut that is capable with this saw there is a minimal amount of diameter lost when assembling the wedges into discs. This is a common problem with other types of jigs previously marketed which use hard backed blades for cutting the wedges as there is considerably more material removed from each cut and depending upon the number of wedges assembled the diameter of the finished ring can be up to 3/16” smaller in diameter.
