I hit a window of opportunity and made a little more progress on the jig last night. I was able to finish the "upper" step with a regular end mill. It doesn't have as nice a finish as the carbide indexable end mill. Tried different rpm's and depth of cut and they were all about the same. I was able to hit the size though.
This picture shows the surface finish.
Here is the jig in the normal orientation. Still need to add the little slots in the corner. Should be able to start this weekend.
