Milescraft 1312 DrillBlock- Handheld Drill Guide

Product Information

I designed it to work as a guide in making many projects as in the case of making my router plane where accuracy is critical for attaching all of the metal components.

The Milescraft DrillBlock drill guide allows you to drill straight holes all of the time, on many different drilling surfaces. The bushing block is held at a tight tolerance and allows you to drill a hole 90° to any surface, centred on a round item or even directly into the corner of your project. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too.You could also start with two separate pieces of wood, as long as they are square and the same height. The base body in which they are installed is usually not transparent, and only the stop for the particular application ensures the exact positioning of the drill.

The Milescraft Drill90PLUS™ right angle drilling and screw driving attachment is perfect for drilling those hard-to-reach wall studs and floor joists, as well as a host of other applications. Centre lines for each bit run the full length of the jig, on all working faces, ensuring accurate placement against layout lines on the workpiece. The Milescraft DrillBlock+ drill guide allows you to drill straight holes all of the time, on many different drilling surfaces. In cabinet work, we often rely on holes to be as perpendicular as possible for accuracy, alignment, etc, and even when we do have a drill press it is not always possible to take the workpiece to the machine. mm Ø holes first and then, without using the block, enlarge the holes with the preferred size of drill.Axminster Tool Centre Ltd trading as Axminster Tools is a credit broker and is Authorised and Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Having drilled to a reasonable depth, you can carry on drilling deeper without the guide, as the hole itself will guide you. I use a simple homemade guide that can be made from scraps in just a few minutes and that ensures the hole runs true to guide either pilot holes for screws, twist drills and auger bits and more. However, the 75 x 75 mm base body can also be secured to the workpiece with a clamp if needed or required. The guide block is beautifully finished with a black electro-coating, for wear and corrosion resistance.

All blocks have alignment slots for SAILSetc standard goosenecks and metal bodied ball raced goosenecks to ensure alignment between the gooseneck and the holes. I worked with metal and we used blocks or turned top hat bushes into which we could swop different sized hardened drill bushes. Use of two blocks enables perfect alignment between all the holes - one block is used to hold the mast while the other is stationed for each set of holes. Rubber buffers provide reliable grip, with inegrated V-slot for easy positioning on round material or edges.Credit is provided by Novuna Personal Finance, a trading style of Mitsubishi HC Capital UK PLC, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

The pre-drill bit inserted into the marking keeps the position, so that you can hold the base body by hand alone for drilling. With most drill guides, the drill templates are fixed and often arranged in several sizes fixed next to each other.

Requiring no separate guide bushes, each drill bit is guided within the hardened drill block, precision machined to the tightest tolerances to ensure 90° alignment to the workpiece. Once I needed to drill 4 7″ precise parallel holes on a wall based on a template and was able to do it with pretty good success by taping it to the wall. Insert the bit through the hole in the guide, locate the tip of the bit into the start hole, press the guide firmly against the surface and drill. The bushing block is held at a tight tolerance and allows you to drill a hole 90° to any surface, centered on a round item or even directly into the corner of your project.

Portable and pocket-sized, this guide block will ensure perpendicular drilling alignment wherever you go. I used the bandsaw to rip the trued blank into two but you can saw down accurately with a handsaw and true up the joining faces.
