Inexpensive and simple tool for marking and drilling when working with wood

click fraud protection

When assembling wood products, precise marking and drilling is required. It takes a long time to make some types of markings with a simple square. And drilling strictly vertical holes without equipment is not always possible. I propose to look at several convenient devices, using which, you can do the work better.

Multifunctional marking square

Material: plastic. Size: 210x60x72 mm. Allows: to mark parallel lines with millimeter precision. Mark a block for sawing it under 45 g. Quickly mark corners at 30, 45 and 60 degrees. Drill calibration (find out diameter). Link for those who are comfortable looking at aliexpress.

A convenient square for marking straight lines along the edge of a board or bar. Judging by the reviews, the plastic is flexible, it won't break accidentally.

The following inexpensive striping tool:

Plastic marking of the middle of the edge of a board or bar up to 60 mm wide. Two colors of the product to choose from. You can also make markup lines parallel to the edge of the bar (fixed indent). Size: 10x5.5x4.5 cm. There is a magnet in the leg for fixing on an iron stand (will not get lost). Alternative

We do this: we apply it to the bar or the end of the board, turn it relative to the central hole until it stops - the hole will be exactly in the middle. We insert a pencil lead and lead along the bar. The line will be exactly in the middle of the bar or end of the board. And further along the line we drill holes.

But to drill holes exactly in the center of the bar or the end of the board, it is better to immediately use the following device:

As in the marking device above: apply, turn and the place for drilling will be exactly in the middle. The set includes three bushings for different drill diameters. There are drill stops for the drilling depth. Three colors with three configurations each. There are even wooden dowels in one of the kits. Drills with a diameter of 6, 8, 10 mm. Probably slightly larger bushings. Alternative link on aliexpress.

Miter hole set:

The device itself (a body with two holes), which is clamped with a clamp on the workpiece. Three wood drills (6, 8 and 10 mm), replaceable sleeves and a wrench. The body is made of metal, its size is 6.5x3.8x1.8 cm. The set includes limiters for drills to the drilling depth. Alternative link on aliexpress (6 complete sets to choose from, there are even dowels and a clamp - as options for ordering).

The device will come in handy for those who decide to make wooden furniture with their own hands, a swing, a bench in the country. Yes, and for repairing old furniture it can also come in handy.

They seem to be simple devices, but they can save time, make repair work easier, and increase their accuracy when assembling something. They can also be useful in furniture production. Who uses these - write your review in the comments.
