Description Reviews Q&A

Big Gator V-DrillGuides are high quality, made in the USA, made of special nickel-alloy steel, and heat-treated for durability like drill bull bushings. A 90° v-groove on the bottom of the guides allows for drilling perfect holes in round stock or even directly into corners! Precision ground flats on either side of the v-groove make quick work of drilling straight, accurate holes on flat surfaces. Bore alignment marks embedded into the sides of the guide mean all you need do is locate and mark the hole location, lineup and secure the guide in place, drill, and presto—perpendicular holes with no wandering. Don’t leave it up to “eyeballing,” your eyes have a track record of dishonesty, and your hands are not as steady as you think they are. Just use a guide and get it right the first time.

Infinity Tools sells these guides in three imperial sizes (100-021 through 100-023) and one metric size (100-024).
