Good one redlite

I know it's frustrating Ross, but you are a craftsman and can fix your mistakes and will always learn from them I'm sure.

I have seen those kinds of jigs for sale all through my career and always resisted buying any of them. I make my own from scraps of hardwood and sometimes drill them out ahead of time on the drill press. I must have drilled tens of thousands of hardware holes in the past 40 years and made my share of mistakes, they can happen even with a jig if not paying attention. I have had to order replacement doors because of mis-measuring door and drawer front sizes plenty of times but never from mis-drilling hardware luckily as many times the hole can be tweaked and covered by the handle etc.

better luck next time

	The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely. 1984 was a warning, not a guidebook! It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
