Guide: Portable Drill Adapter for Hand Tools - 0 to 60° Angle with Protractor & Drill Chuck Key

This is for me that tool that I wish I had so many times. I use my drill press on wood regularly but there is always one instance where I’d like to drill a perfect hole where my drill press will not reach. This is that tool and it works exceptionally well. The craftsmanship is solid.

If you need an efficient manual vertical drill jig, this is perfect except for the outrageous price tag. But you have the cash want a quality piece of equipment buy it

This is the best drill guide I've found. I like the fairly smooth up/down operation. I love the limit knobs on each rail, and the limit knob on the drill attachment portion as well. Yes, the bearings in the unit are smooth and transfer energy from the drill very well. But mine tightened up on me. I don't know if I tightened the drill bit onto the chuck too tightly. I just firmly snugged the drill bit on there with the key . . . not sure. But I had to loosen the nut on the top to get it to spin smoothly again. It has it's issues, but still the best one I could find. Curious how it holds up over a lot of use.

I purchased this tool to drill out thick walnut shelves we milled up for floating shelves in a kitchen. It worked flawlessly and we were able to use it with a forstner bit to perfectly center our holes. It made mounting the shelves a breeze onto the brackets which had 4 solid poles sticking out. I will find other uses for this for sure. I've been a remodeling contractor for 25 years and wish I had this tool many years ago. This is a real review from a real person, not one that got a free tool.

Rockler drill press adapter os very well made
