Description

I needed to drill another two holes in my drywall to install another two sockets /outlets.
The main piece can be used as a drilling guide by itself however I wanted to add the possibility to add another outlet right/left from an existing socket. Therefore you can use the drop in to center the guide around an existing hole.
The standoffs provide support for a 6x2mm magnet, you can glue that in and use stabila pocket magnetic level to align holes properly. Both versions of the level work - mind polarity before gluing the magnet permanently. 
The bottom of the drilling guide has a groove to put in a silicone bead and make it less slippery on the surface.

After printing glue the pin inside the bottom of the drop in. You can then use it as a center punch. 

This drilling guide has following dimensions: 
68 mm hole diameter
71 mm spacing
250 mm length
110 mm height 
5 mm thickness

my preferred cyan glue: https://amzn.to/3URA89Q
