Description
A self-indexing shelf pin drilling jig for Waypoint Living cabinets (64mm / 32mm system spacing). I made this during a kitchen renovation when my new upper cabinets didn't have enough shelf pin holes to position shelves where I actually needed them. Rather than eyeballing it, breaking out the laser level, or building a jig from scratch with separate stops and clamps, I designed this simple one-piece solution that uses the cabinet's own hardware to do the positioning work.
Place the jig against the cabinet wall, insert two shelf pins through the existing holes to lock it in position, then drill through the third hole to add your next pin location — perfectly aligned and exactly 64mm above.
No clamps, no tape, no measuring. Printed in ~15 minutes with about 10g of filament.
⚠️ Important: Mark your drill bit with tape or use a depth stop collar before drilling. Cabinet side panels are typically only ¾" thick — it's easy to drill too deep and blow out the other side. My worst nightmare is this “15min print” turning into a “15 hour fixing project!”
Let me know if you have any questions. Hope it helps someone!
