By popular demand from viewers of my YouTube videos, I am happy to announce the availability of the Paracordist's Monkeys Fist Jig! http://www.paracordist.com/the-exclus...
With my videos and this jig, you can make perfect monkeys fist creations with inserts anywhere from 3/4" to 1.5" in diameter. This jig dissembles in seconds using 5/16" diameter wooden dowels for convenient packing or storage!!

The jigs shown in pictures and videos may have a different hole pattern, or use graphite rods. The graphite rods are no longer offered with the jig available for purchse. When the grahpite rod price increased I chose not to pass that along to the customer. I decided to use the wooden dowels which do not effect performance and can easily be replaced using wooden dowels available from most hardware stores, In my first monkey's fist video, I even used pencils!

I frequently tinker with the pattern arrangement to provide the maximum flexibility in use with different bearing sizes, so your jig may have a recent improvement that make its appearance differ slightly from that seen in photos or videos. Designed to my specifications, this is the only jig I use for all my "monkey" creations. (typically ships in 5-10 business days)
