Description
Drilling Locator Drill Guide for Straight Holes, Woodworking Locator for Carpentry Projects
-
Crooked holes are a thing of the past: the drill guide keeps every hole perfectly perpendicular without a drill press
-
Works with the drill you already own: the 0.64 inch hexagonal shaft fits corded and cordless drills and impact drivers alike
-
One tool for edge, T, and L joints: the woodworking locator is built for edge, surface, T-shaped, and L-shaped joints
-
Drill wider than the bit you have: set the bit down and turn it to open holes up to 2 inches wide
-
The fence expands with the job: guide rods let you extend the fence on all four edges of the base
A hole that wanders off-square ruins a joint before it is even assembled. This drilling locator lets you drill perfectly perpendicular holes up to 2 inches (5.1 cm) in diameter without needing a drill press, so straight, accurate holes happen even on a vertical board. It is built from durable materials that resist rust, small enough to carry job to job, and works just as well indoors as outside.
The 0.64 inch (1.6 cm) hexagonal shaft works with both corded and cordless drills and impact drivers, and the two centre pins store on the body when not in use — one of the column caps has a built-in hex bit that screws them into the base to tighten. The bit capacity is 1 inch (2.5 cm), but standing the locator down and turning it lets you drill up to 2 inches (5.1 cm) wide, with centerlines laser-carved around the opening to keep you on target. A pair of guide rods lets the fence expand in any direction, since the rods are drilled and tapped into all four edges of the base — handy for edge, surface, T-shaped, and L-shaped joints, quick furniture assembly, and other DIY carpentry. As a portable drill guide small enough for a tool bag, this drilling guide goes wherever the job takes you, indoors or out.
