Well guys, the subject line pretty much says it all. I need some ideas on how to start all of these screws straight. Working with metal, I can't ever remember having to place fasteners every 16" on center at 1 foot intervals. My guess is if you don't get that screw or pilot hole damn close to straight it will tweak the work out of square. This begs the question, how does a blind guy drill about a bazillion straight pilot holes? When working in metal I can usually take the work over to the drill-press or if I need to mount something to a frame, I can fab a guide up for that special task. None of the drill fixtures or jigs I have built previously would work for a drilling and fastening project of this size. In our next chapter boys&girls we are going to find out how a blind guy who can hardly spell wood goes about choosing material, so stay tuned.
