What they say

Hide

If your holes keep coming out crooked, don't worry. I got you. Let's get after it. All right, so I just got done welding this frame for a tabletop, and I got to drill quarter-inch holes. Well, I'm not very good at drilling a straight hole through metal. So, I got this Speedtool drill guide. And a lot of times you guys see it used on wood, but you can use it on metal, wood, and PVC. It offers an all-aluminum construction. It comes with two pivot pins located in the top, and you can screw them on the bottom. I got the pivot pins locked in here. Now I can put this on my workpiece, rotate it, and this will always be center. This helps when you're working with thinner material like I am here. Also, on this drill guide it includes a built-in depth gauge, so I can I can set it right here, and it'll stop me there. So, I got my hole marked, punched, taking a quarter-inch drill bit, just chuck it up like you would any drill. Comes with a chuck key. Tighten it down.
