2060 Hex Freehand Drilling Jig V2
2060 Hex Freehand Drilling Jig V2
Aluminum Extrusion Precision Drilling Jig
This Drilling Jig enables you to precisely drill 6 holes, 20mm apart, at any location of the extrusion, facilitating a 'Blind Joint.' Such joints reduce the reliance on external brackets, resulting in more aesthetically pleasing joinery without compromising on strength.
These are high-quality 3D-printed precision 8020 aluminum extrusion drilling jigs designed and produced by 'The Aluminum Carpenter' to work with all 20 Series Aluminum Extrusions. Additionally, all necessary bolts and nuts are included, allowing for immediate use straight out of the box. Equipped with two magnets, this attachment easily adheres to any magnetic surface, providing an organized storage solution.
These jigs are meticulously designed and 3D modeled, with all fitting and hole tolerances keenly monitored. They are slowly and carefully printed one layer at a time, with each jig print taking over five hours, depending on the size of the jig.
With this precision drilling jig, you can quickly, consistently, and repeatedly achieve accurate hole placements without the need for additional tools, saving you tremendous time and gaining immediate accuracy in your work.
All our Precision Jigs come with Free International Shipping.
Orders will be printed, assembled, and packed directly from our Singapore office. Global shipping typically takes 8 to 18 business days, as per the estimates provided by our local postal service.
How To Use Our Precision Jigs
There are many ways to secure the jig to your aluminum extrusion. In most instances, you do not need to utilize every single bolt and nut. Simply determine the best way to securely fasten the jig to your workpiece. The multiple bolts provide numerous fastening options to cater to a variety of scenarios.
Once the jig is securely fastened to your workpiece, you can immediately drill extremely precise holes into your aluminum extrusion. This enables a wide range of joinery methods that would be impossible without drilling.
For Offset Jigs, you do not need to measure or draw any marked lines on your workpiece.
For Freehand Jigs, measure and mark your aluminum extrusion where you want to place a drilled hole. Align the gap on the sides of the jig with your marked line. The exact center of the gap is precisely aligned with the center of the drilled hole.
Improved Version 2 Precision Jigs
Our Version 2 jigs are significantly improved from Version 1.
- The 3D-printed side walls are made thicker and reinforced with a sufficient number of bolts spanning the height of the jig to prevent breakage from mishandling and overuse, enhancing overall durability.
- We added substantial aesthetic value to the design of the jig by incorporating sophisticated rounded edges and geometrical facial layouts, which indirectly improved the printability of the first layer.
- We also refined the complex print settings for 3D printing the jig by adding additional layers, wall strength, and a complex array of infill methods, resulting in extra wall strength without significantly increasing the overall weight.
