also the design of that one was that you needed to build two of them. one for the larger pipe and one for the smaller pipe and I didn't want two jigs taking up space when one could do it.
if you already have made one I would suggest going out and getting a chunk of MDF to use as the backing plate to give your tube a truer surface to run on. you will notice it in your cuts.
