October 1, 200619 yr I bought a half a dozen on ebay cheap so i havent had the need,remember that you have to be able to make a scroll before you can make a jig, the jig just helps if you need alot of identical scrolls.
October 1, 200619 yr 1" x 1/4" flat bar is commonly used to make a scrolling jig. Heat it up and make your perfect scroll, leaving a 90 degree bend the hard way on the stock end to clamp in the vise. Make them in various sizes and you'll always have the one you want.
October 26, 200619 yr scrapman, here are some pix taken from the book Wrought Ironwork. This should explain how to make a scroll jig. Hope it helps.............ken

October 27, 200619 yr I've seen another methog where a fellow cut a spirial in heavy plate and then heated the plate and pushed the spirial out so you "follow the path down the mountain". when done you do havbe to heat and push your scroll back into a single plane however. Thomas
April 3, 200917 yr Hey Valentin, that is probably the most ingenious scroller I've ever seen. Do you wanna give up the story on how you made it? From the pic, it looks adjustable to various sizes of scrolls. Great design.
