A decent home-made jig needn't cost a lot (mine was around £25 plus a couple of hours) and that cost is easily recouped in the saving over shop bought or custom made strings. The main issue is whether or not you want to make your own - I enjoy it and am happy with the results, but some I know can't be bothered and would rather pay the extra for ready made.
