Hi all I am looking for the following tooling that I had as a kid and made the stupid mistake of selling back in the day.
i do believe they are long out of production but maybe some of you might have one laying around you want to sell or can give a recommendation on something equal or better.
This is what i had, dont have part #"s
Porter cable door boring jig, it did 2-3/8, 2-3/4, Dills of 1-5/8 and 2-1/4"? it was a great set and easy to use.
Porter cable Hinge routing template set, it was 4 templates adjustable 3.5 4.0 4.5 and i believe 5"? It had bars to hook it all together and i could do 6/8 7/0 & 8/0 doors easy.
and last
Porter cable bevel planer, it was good and I really can do this on my machines, I would buy it anyway for specific tasks.
I guess the local door shop is not doing well and I am getting a lot of requests hang doors, luckily I know this well as I owned a door shop for 10 years?
i am looking to get the basics and see how this goes before I break down and get a Norfield Magnum.
If you have any of these you want to unload, I am interested, Or if you
know of better stuff, I would would like to hear.
Thanks in advance
Glen
Never thought I was going down this path again.

Northfield had a nice jig that held the jamb on the door edge and you routed both at ounce , not sure they still make but lot less than a magnum Designing and building for 50 years

PC Hinge jig-click see all buying options at right
The Bosche hinge jigs are my preference. I've had both. More accurate than the PC, as the jig doesn't happen to be flipped upside down to move from door to jamb. Originally sold as Stanley, they're the same jigs. Unfortunately, they are no longer manufactured.
Templaco Bore master kits (best made) and other templates/tools???
If doing a bunch of the same doors, Templaco will make custom hinge jigs:?
If there are good door and jamb suppliers anywhere nearby, see what they have for fixed hinge jigs.
The Porter Cable 126 Porta Plane, with spiral carbide blades is the best door planer by miles. Also, no longer available, but now that most door people just use pre-hung and split jamb doors, with patience they can be found used..
Happy hunting,
Lance

Thank you Lance
The pc 59381 is in fact what I had and it sounds like the 126 may have been what I had. Thank you for the help and the lnk to Templaco. I do not remember having to flip the PC hinge template. I remember it was pinned to the door and the jamb at the same time and you routed both together.
I will keep my eyes open for the 126, it was a great bevel planer

I’ve got the porter cable kit.? I use the the fixture to bore any custom doors I build but tend to a chisel/router plane for hinges.? I’ve got the PC hinge jig (from a long time ago (steel box) but have never used it.? Any more pedestrian trim job, doors are usually pre hung so I usually only swap to better quality hinges.
This jig is really well designed.
