[QUOTE="SiKBOY, post: 82031, member: 1362"] I've used the zeiser system before and the plates are exy but you can always recycle them a few times before there are too many holes drilled through them. It works okay except when dies are on weird angles, you have to trim away a lot off the side walls of either the die or adjacent teeth to get the die out. You also have to make sure the working area is close to the edge of the tray or else your porc brush won't reach the die. I've gone back to the old trusty dowel pin system. It's cheap, set the pins on any angle you want so it draws without any interferences and you can trim the land area to desired after basing. It's not so accurate but I always use a secondary solid uncut pour for more accuracy. If you are lookin for an idiot proof system, the zeiser is better than the dowel pin. I wouldn't trust the dowel pin with a rookie/trainee. Too many things can go wrong. [/QUOTE]
