a2z Tumbler Jig
The a2z Tumbler Jig is for use with the a2z Universal Base, as part of the a2z laser jig system. It can be used with any glassware or cylindrical objects.
How the a2z jig system works
This jig works with the a2z Universal Base. The system is simple: the base mounts to your laser bed once and gets centered once — that's the only alignment you ever do. After that, this jig and every other a2z insert locate to that same base and land in exactly the same spot, every time. Switch from tumblers to coins to coasters in seconds, and the engraving files you've already dialed in keep lining up without test marks or re-framing.
- Mount the Universal Base once. One-time setup, centered on your laser.
- Set this jig on the base for today's job. Same base, same position, as every a2z insert.
- Engrave with repeatable positioning. No re-alignment between jobs — ever.
If you engrave many of the same style tumbler this is the jig for you. You can put it on a shelf and bring it back when you need it and the jig positioning will stay the same. If you frequently adjust the supports, engrave many size tumblers and want effortless support adjustment, consider the a2z Tumbler MagJig Ultra.
It is adjustable in the X or Y direction, depending which orientation you use the jig. As the cup will already be centered on the Tumbler left to right from the Universal Base's mounting position, you only have to adjust where the engraving will fall on the Tumbler top to bottom.
The tilt is also adjustable for Tumblers with tapered or angled sides.
This jig mounts to the Universal Base plate magnetically and secures to it in any orientation in 90 degree increments. Alignment to the base plate is very accurate and any discrepancy should be imperceptible. However, if you want perfect alignment you can attach the Alignment Cones Accessory to the bottom of the jig.
Runs on the a2z Universal Base (shown in photos, sold separately) — add the Universal Base once and every a2z insert jig you buy after it clicks in with zero re-alignment.
