Horizontal Drill

Great solution, Karson.

I admire the way you think “outside the box”

Simple & effective Karson.

I see you’ve found use for plywood made overseas. Good creative solution.

Yes small jig pieces for China Plywood.

It’s simple, it works, it’s cheap – can’t beat it!

Great jig, Karson. Simple and it works. I’ve still got my old ShopSmith but seldom use the horizontal drilling feature. I’m surprised there isn’t one somewhere in that shop of yours. LOL

I agree with Mr. Angle. I would have though that you would have already owned one. :)

Well, it is not a thing of pure beauty, but it looks like you got it to work for you.

I think I detect some MDF and aluminum plate in there also. Good to use up the scrap.

I’ve got a horizontal router, but not a drill. Well now I do.

Need to make the alumimum flashing a little bigger so I can attached it better and some bigger pieces of MDF so I can get the clamps out of the way. But it get it done. What more can you ask of a jig. If I use double faced tape it would change my height. But, then again It would be hard to remove for different heights.

You and MacGyver must be related somehow : ) Great job , Karson !

Ah yes, MacGyver…The drill spins at 1000 rpm until the aluminum heats up from the electromagnetic force field of the drill bit sending a flair into the air at precisely the same moment a bad guy flies over Karson’s workshop in a helicopter. Brilliant! It drills holes, too!

Quite the jig Karson, your in league with GaryK now. I thought he was the best jig maker, you got a few good ones up your sleeve too. LOL
