Does anyone have one they are happy with and willing to share?

I've got a great Bounding Box Journal that Cowski posted a while back but it's not accurate enough on strange shapes.
I'd love to be able to make an "Exact Bounding Box" Journal out of it but it's above my skill set at this point.

I'm just stabbing in the dark.

TIA for any shares or help.

Thanks Cowski.

I've cruised that one before. The Exact Bbox tool there works but it doesn't write the results into attributes or expressions.
It just pushes info to an information window.

There was another thread you were in some where that probably had what I was looking for.
But the journals were links that are now broken down.

The alternatives aren't any good for me at this point... I have a library and templates already built up.

But I'm having serious problems that I just posted about on this forum.
"Bounding Body" Failures, Progressive Die Wizard "Stock Body" Failures

These tools are unstable and a disaster for hundreds of hours of library development.
