I have been a loyal customer
Posted December 6, 2013
I have been a loyal customer of Rockler for longer than I can remember. Their products have always been beyond reproach, with the exception of this one. It ruined a major project of mine because of misalignment of the pattern when reversed to do opposite sides. Save your money. It's too easy to make your own templates that work properly. The only thing you can salvage is the drill bit.
Editor's note: When reversing this jig (as with any shelf pin jig) to the opposite side of the case it is important to always keep the same end down. The most common usage mistake made in use of this jig it to flip the jig end for end when drilling the opposite side of the case. It is important not flip the jig end for end or misalignment of shelf pin holes can occur. By keeping the same end down when doing both sides of the case one can be assured of the same starting point and the proper alignment of holes.

Shelving Jig
Posted November 20, 2013
I own it and use it frequently. The plastic bit holder didn't last long. Cracked and broke to pieces at each screw hole when putting the holder back on the plate after removing it one time. I generally use it now just with the plate by itself. I found if using it with the holder on, it raised the jig off of the work piece (due to the screw heads) and caused some room for tearout and chips to collect under and around the holes, slightly jarring the centering bit and chipping the plate itself. Also the centering bit clogs easily and can throw off the hole it's suppose to center. Over all not a bad jig to have around. I wish these had a wood edge like others on the market.

I didn't buy this yet but the complaints seem petty. Everyone who does wood work knows to have a bottom and a top and a left and right, so you people don't know what ur doing, don't blame the jig
It works well, but there are...

It works well, but there are a couple things you need to know when using it. The black guide bar is made of plastic. You are required to move it from one side to the other when switching the distance from the end of the case where you would like your holes. When moving it, do not tighten the screws too much or it will crack the plastic on the drill guide. I did this by mistake. I didn't even use much torque at all and it still cracked. Also, when drilling the holes, it's easy to drill the hole slight angled unless you use a drill guide or drill press. The drill press option is not ideal because it's difficult to position the jig under a drill press to get it to work easily. I purchased a drill guide and it works great. For those that may think a slightly crooked hole won't matter as long as the holes are all the same distance from top or bottom, it does when one pin it crooked up and one crooked down. The shelf will not sit right on the pins. Hope this helps!

I've used this jig for about five years and have been having trouble with inserting shelf pins. A few measurements shows that my drill bit is slightly under 0.25" and the pins are slightly over. What should be a great jig is marginally useful.
