Does anyone have a suggestion where I can try to buy Leigh Jig second hand?


I was saving up to buy one on Ebay from the US but the collapse of the Aussie dollar has put that one out of my price range.
What was Au$400 on Ebay is now Au$700 :doh:

I got a new Superjig 24 inch from Carbatec in Brisbane for $499. It was supposedly $100 off.

It has to be worth a phone call to Carbatec Sydney and Brisbane.

Yes in Brisbane. The 12 inch was 399 the 18 inch 499 and the 24 inch was 499 (normally 599 if you believe marketing) I was not intending to get the 24 inch but could not pass it up.

I bought a cheaper alternative recently, its called an 'ECT router guide system'. Probably not as good as a Leigh Jig, but its only a fraction of the price and works quite well for what I need..
