Cochese Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I think higtron's solution is the best. In fact, I think I'll make one up soon. I think I'll eventually get the LR32 set...when I have nothing else to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric. Posted January 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Sell some Green stuff. NEVER! It's not that I don't want to "build jigs" anymore...I don't want to build another shelf pin jig. I have in the past, and the holes get reamed out, making them worthless garbage. Yes they only take a few minutes to build, but I don't feel like doing it anymore. Call me lazy. It would be a fair assessment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not on the drill press, it doesn't matter how screwed up the hole gets or even what size it is to begin with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick LoDico Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I have this system from Lee Valley. It contains metric and US bushings. A bit cheaper than the others. http://www.leevalley.com/US/Wood/page.aspx?p=32251&cat=1,180,42311 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a fair assessment. That's why you use your router to drill your shelf pin holes no tear-out clean bottoms and, the jig has 1/2" holes to receive the bushing for spacing. Drill the 1/2" holes with the drill press and fence it's perfect every time repeatable and fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
