The chuck carrier supports a 1 inch drill bit capacity, and when removed and reversed, accepts bits up to 2 inches wide. A V-groove in the base enables centered drilling for round stock like wood dowels, improving symmetry and placement for dowel joints and precise holes.
Two centered pins stow on the board when not in use. For operation, they thread into the bottom of the base and can be tightened with one of the column caps, which includes a built‑in hex bit. The fence attaches to any of the four sides of the square base, and can be oriented in multiple ways. It reference against the edge of the board and can be reversed for extended range. The fence can be rotated to simplify drilling on vertical boards and, on larger surfaces like plywood, can serve as a leg to provide extra support.
The design emphasizes a robust construction: the chuck carrier moves on stainless steel columns with Teflon sleeves for smooth operation. One column features a machined tapered flat to keep the stop collar firmly in place during use. The hex bit needed to install the centering pins is built into the bottoms of the column caps, ensuring quick setup and adjustments. The included fence adds substantial versatility, enabling precise edge referencing and multi‑orientation use for a range of drilling tasks.
