KREG KMA3200 Shelf Pin Drilling Jig

Product Information

Almost every shelf requires two rows of shelf pins. So why not have a jig that can do both simultaneously? Great article. Have you ever heard of a 3/16″ shelf pin jig? The cabinets in my house were custom made and the trim carpenter used 3/16″ shelf pins. I want to add a few holes here and there but I cant see anything other than 1/4″ and 5mm for jigs / self centering drill bits. Would love some insight… Again, thanks for this article!

The first reason to like the jig is its simple drill bit that isn’t spring-loaded. After drilling thousands of shelf pin jigs with spring-loaded mechanisms, the freedom of a bit and collar is welcome. Building an external barn door is a great DIY project.

High Visibility: But for a project with high visibility to the inside of the cabinet, you can skip holes if you have a good feel for where the shelves will go. A shelf pin jig is a handy tool that allows you to drill precise holes for shelf pins in your shelving projects. The jig typically comes with a set of removable bushings that allow you to adjust the spacing of the holes, so you can customize the jig to fit your specific needs. Hi Scott, appreciate the question. 3/16″ is a rare size in a shelf pin! I have only seen a 7/32″ shelf pin drill bit, and a more common 5mm bit is slightly smaller and closer to that 3/16″.

Hardened-Steel Drill Guides.Unlike thin and flexible guides, the hardened-steel drill guides of the KregShelf Pin Jig ensure each and every hole you drill is perfectly straight and true. Plus, all Kreghardened-steel drill guides come with a lifetime warranty. For DIY’ers and construction professionals, this compact, budget-friendly jig has several features of more expensive jigs. But at a fraction of the cost. One of the significant challenges of a plastic jig is the drill requires a chip-clearing bit. This, along with the Kreg jig, makes solutions like this attractive, as you need a simple drill bit with a depth-adjustable collar. Or, you can use the existing holes to mark your hole location centers, measure and use a brad point with a depth collar (skip the jig). Cheapest for just a few holes, just more time in layout.
