Just wanted to give a shout out about how great the quality of this jig is! Before I got my TX Pro, I was using a 3d printed jig that I bought on eBay (one that has a paperclip in it) and the TX Pro jig is a million times better! Slides in easily and it works every single time!

Say what you want about TX, but they made a a great jig! Honestly can't say one negative thing about this jig.

I would recommend this jig to everyone!

Reason why I purchased the pro cause the jig looks high quality but slowly regretting as it is taking forever to ship :cry:

Beautiful or not, in my opinion what matters is what the mechanics of it are. Their jig contains actual copper pins, not a shoved in paperclip or wire that can damage the switch eventually.

Not all eBay Jigs are crap. Here's mine:

The plastic jig is fine. I did have to replace the wire they used. It was too thin. I used a copper wire pulled out of a Ethernet cord. It's just thick enough to hold the bend shape I put on the ends so it's perfect. Doesn't put too much stress on the rail pins. Their jig looks nice too I suppose but the one I got now works just as well. :D

Agreed, I could be wrong, but I think since TX uses copper pins and not a paper clip is the reason why the jig works every time (for me at least)... but I could be wrong

That is nice looking.
