thanks for your reply :)
Nice updates, i too got the very first batch and am liking my tool a lot.
Would be nice to have upgrade options. My handle life does not shut properly not sure is it’s an issue for some
Also there is no option to rout 2”inch holes and recess from what I can make out if I am mistaken then guide needs to be updated
I purchased the jig back when it first launched and I really wish I could buy the upgrades. Are there plans to make those available?
I am part of the first batch that received the pioneer in november 2023.
And honestly I totaly love the product and also those upgrades are most welcomed. I will have to buy the upgrade since for me they are mandatory.
Will we get a discount for second purchase? :D
Only thing I do not agree with is the advantage of a clear plate. Will it really help in usability, most plates are aluminum and I have never had a problem with visibility, maybe I am missing something. I would be more worried about long term durability with a clear plate, at least if it is acrylic. Polycarbonate should be ok I would think.
Good work on the updates, keep chugging along.
Thanks!
What a shame, I would have loved to see at least one thing in your list from my feedback about the jig.
Hi, what’s up with the shipments?
Love the idea of clear parts for added visability during operation.
Only slightly concerned about clear materials durability, polycarbonate would be good, acrylic would be bad.
Looks even better and more functional.. also thanks for update has regards shipping.

Awesome news. Thank you.
I can relate to all the improvements, obsessing with details, and the “that could be done better” mentality.
P.S. I actually really like the “*not final color” color.
