O.D. Mike- here's the hand drill jig
Mike asked me to post some pictures of the hand drill jig I use. This is based on a jig Mac showed me.
I think there's 5 pictures all together.
The first is the finished jig. Basically its just a long piece of plywood with a fence on one side. You build a small box to hold your hand drill upside down with the bit level, and mount that against the fence on one end of the plywood.
Then you build a small sled that has a 1/8" nail that lines up with the bit, and you push the sled along the fence to feed the plug into the bit.
When you get 1/2 way flip the plug around and drill from the other end. I have some lines drawn on the fence that show me where the bit ends so I know when I'm more than 1/2 way.
