I don't really do enough coasters at the moment to justify this but wondered out of interest if anyone used a jig?

That's a good idea, I haven't done any coasters apart from 2 samples I had - but this makes it look very easy. Where's my router :smile:

She never mentioned nothing about template. you need this to print properly. but i preasume it comes with the jig...

The template can be easily knocked up in coreldraw etc - just think its a quick and easy way to do the coasters

I guess once it's set up that's it. I wonder about bleed on an all over design though.

well... oncei spend just over hour to do keyring inserts tempalte :) so if you have to do it youself then is not as quick as they say :) but i agree. if they give your template you can print them in bulk in few minutes.

Sounds like a good idea if there was a jig for non-UniSub coasters. I've occasionally done large orders of coasters, and a jig would have been useful on those occasions.

I'd bet that if a jig was available, it'd be prohibitively expensive.
