Review on Cabinet Hardware Jig Punch Locator - Drill Guide Adjustable Inch & Metric Scales, Aluminum Alloy With Φ5Mm Drilling Hole, Tool Cabinet With Drill Bit And Hand Marking Tool by Dennis Brinson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

DIYer? Then yes.: my feedback

The Voltstorm BraveX Cabinet Hardware Jig Punch Locator comes with 4 guide hole jigs, a drill bit and a marking tool. It also has a zip up carrying case. There are metric and imperial rulers on both rulers.A jig like this is useful for making repeatable measured holes for various things - front drawers, drawer sliders…really anything with a flat surface that you can line up from two sides.This jig has a lot of plastic parts - unfortunately in the key places where you need a solid 90’ angle. If you are careful, you can get 90' but I suggest verifying it. I also believe that through use it will become harder and harder to make it stay 90’. It’s probably not enough of a problem for most use cases but something to be aware of. It is metal where the securing thumb screws are at - this is good as plastic here would have quickly stripped.The included drill bit does not match the whole size on the jigs - it’s not terribly off but it could be tighter.Using the marking tool is another matter - it is significantly smaller than the whole. If you use it, you must be very careful to center it as it could easily make a mark ¼” off.It’s hard to knock the product at the price point. It’s not something a contractor would ever use but it’s certainly good enough for a weekend DIYer.
