This is a precision 3D-printable drilling jig designed to make the cabinets assembly with Euro screws (confirmat screws) fast and accurate. It allows you to drill perfectly centered holes both in the edge (cant) and the face of the panels.
Key Features:
Three distance options: Pre-set holes at 25mm, 50mm, and 75mm from the edge for versatility.
Bearing-supported: The holes are sized at 13mm to press-fit a standard bearing.
Precision: Designed for a bearing with a 6mm inner diameter, perfectly guiding a 5.5mm wood drill bit without damaging the plastic jig.
Dual-purpose: Works for both the panel edge and the side face.
Drill Bit: 5.5mm (standard for Euro/Confirmat screws).
Printing Instructions:
Material: PETG or ASA recommended for durability, though PLA works fine for occasional use.
Wall Loops: 4 or more for structural rigidity.
Infill: 25-40% (Gyroid recommended).
Orientation: The provided Bambu Studio file is already optimized for the best strength-to-accuracy ratio.
*Real-World Results (DIY Success)
I designed this jig to build my own furniture and save on professional carpentry costs. Although I am not a professional carpenter and only do woodworking for my own home, I managed to assemble the entire furniture set shown in the photos in just a single day using this tool.
It takes the guesswork out of alignment, making it possible for anyone to achieve professional results on a DIY budget. If you want to build your own cabinets and save money, this jig is for you!
**Note: The 13mm holes are designed for a snug press-fit. You might need a small clamp or a light tap with a mallet to seat the bearings perfectly.
