The BEST way to drill shelf pin holes. Better than KREG???

[@lmhorton911]

This is awesome but my shelf is already built. It's a cherry wood closet armouir that has a glass top. It was my daddy's I want to add doors but really shelves more than anything. If it was not alreasy built this would be perfect! I love it thanks for doing this! 🎉🎉

You can actually take this apart and use the sides inside of the cabinet to drill shelf holes. I've had to do that a time or two when I've forgotten to add them before hand.

im working on building a closet and needed to make the holes perfect for my needs ordering now thanks

[@ReeseCustoms]

Awesome! This jig will make it super easy to get the holes done quick

Just bought this two days ago works great.

[@ReeseCustoms]

It really speeds things up, big time!

very nice work

Looks really cool. I was looking at reviews and how to use the kreg one I bought probably 7 years ago... and finally cracked open the package. I came across this video. Of course, now the link you provided is no longer available. But something to think about down the road. Do the plastic holes have tear out problems?

[@ReeseCustoms]

I've drilled literally thousands of holes with mine and so far the plastic holes have held up very well.

Great job

We have a TV cabinet. It has one fixed shelf at the bottom. We want to put adjustable shelves in that space. The problem is that the back board at the rear of the cabinet is attached. How do you attach the tool to drill the rear holes if the tool cannot attach to the back of the board?

[@ReeseCustoms]

I used this in a similar situation. What I did was unscrew the plexiglass part, and hold it in place, drill the lowest hole you want, and put the stopper/alignment piece in, then drill the highest hole you want and put the other stopper/alignment piece in. Those will hold it steady, so then you can drill all of the rest of the holes. Hopefully that makes sense.

How long did it take to do all?

[@charlestroglen3098]

That is super helpful

[@ellentroglen1184]

Very smart

I'm in a little bit of a weird situation of needing to add essentially a third row of holes down the center of a 12" shelf. Would there be a way to accomplish that with this jig?

[@ReeseCustoms]

Yes, ypu could take the bottom stop off of one side of the acrylic template, amd set it to stop in the center of your panel. So one edge would align the jig up, and you'd be drilling holes along one edge, then the center.

I use "Library standards" and clips. As a former librarian, I can attest they'll hold up over 300 lbs. of books (4 foot long 3/4" shelf) and NEVER "let go" or punch thru the shelf or break-out of the sidewalls. Shelf pins can't claim that.

[@ReeseCustoms]

I'll have to look them up, sounds interesting.

It does appear to be one of the best jigs. But as a wood worker, building that jig wouldn't take more than 30 minutes. Save $70 and teach your subscribers a fun and very easy project. Ps, 30 minutes is if you have a donor board for the hole line up already

[@ReeseCustoms]

I considered doing that, and foot what Rockler wants for theirs, I would have, but by the time I laid everything out, bought a drill bit to fit, routed plywood to make a means of making it adjustable, or either purchasing extruded aluminum, etc, it made more sense to buy this. Now I could offer laser cut acrylic templates of just the hole pattern for sale for anyone wanting to make their own... that's an idea.

Make a jig yourself. Takes 1 hour at most, and use a plunge router. Simple, fast , repeatable and cheap
