Since inxs was so helpful in finding several plans for tube benders, I thought I'd ask about frame jigs. Has anyone build one? Have any good links or plans? Pros and Cons to different styles?

- on this site is a photo of a jig - no upper mount but you get the idea if you wanted to put one in

That's a good idea for holding the motor mounts in the proper location. It would be good to keep that installed if the frame is going to be powder coated if they send the frame through an oven to burn the old finish and grease off. Using a junk motor works too.
