I was working on a project where I
needed to drill some angled holes into
some material so I wanted to figure out
if there was an easy way to do that
okay so this is the piece that we made
you can see how it turned out the hole
is now the bottom before the hole comes
out is cut off on an angle which is the
45-degree angle that we cut and now I
can take this piece this is a piece I
want to drill a hole into and I'm going
to place this piece on top of it and I'm
going to clamp it down a couple clamps
here
okay and then so now that time they're
securely and then arrested on here too
let's do scrap boards to just support it
to keep it up to the clamp to clear full
of the table and now I've got this drill
though so this drill bit is the same one
that I was using to drill this hole
initially so now I just go ahead and
drill through the piece that I drew
before
okay so but after take that piece off of
there Steve
got nice angle total in there see how
that turned out
so what's really cool about this is how
this piece will guide the drill bit the
whole way it doesn't let the drill bit
drift while it's getting started on the
board it just drills wherever it's
located at so I think that turned out
pretty good so I liked how that piece
turned out so well that I decided to
make another one and this time I ran
several sizes of holes on here and they
ran around all down on the same
centerline and I even put two copies of
the quarter inch size since such a
common size so now I'm going to there's
all the drill bits I used to do all this
hole I'm going to cut all through this
piece in one pass and that way we can
make a jig for all these different sizes
that would pass
there you go
ready to use okay so I've got this new
version of the Jake here all set up to
use and another thing I did before I use
it is I ran a line down the bottom where
the holes come out of the jig and ran
them up the side of the jig
so now if you want to position the holes
on your part that you're going to cut
into drill into in a certain location
you can do that so I'll subscribe to
line where I want the holes on the board
and so now I just line those two lines
up and I clamp it like that
okay so now it's all lined up so I know
exactly where those holes are going to
come out so now depending what size hole
I want to drill I've got these four
drill bits that they use to make these
holes so let's say I want to coordinate
all this one here and go ahead and drill
through that hole
got a hole and it comes in right where
the line is so I was able to drill the
hole right where I wanted it so I think
this Jake turned out really well and as
you can see it was really simple to make
and if it wears out which it will
eventually I can really easily make
another one I hope you've enjoyed this
