This jig does just exactly what it's designed to do. I couldn't have installed my new cabinet doors without it.

Works perfectly if you use it properly.

All components necessary are included, including instructions. Three of the parts are snapped into clips on the bottom of the jig (the 1/16" drill bit, the edge stop pin, and the marking gauge). The 35 mm forstner bit is of good quality and sharp. It cut the holes in my doors nicely. One thing that is not mentioned in the instructions is that it is probably a good idea to put a light film of grease on the shaft of the forstner drill bit. I suggest grease because you don't want oil running down the shaft and staining your wood. When installing the drill guide for the forstner bit into the base, line the tabs on the side of the guide up with the slots in the base of the jig, and them be sure it is pressed all the way down before trying to rotate it clockwise to lock it into position. I struggled with that for a bit before I realized I didn't have it pushed down quite all the way. When drilling, try to insure that you are applying pressure straight down rather than leaning one way or another. If you're leaning, you will be applying pressure to the drill guide. The bearing surface of the drill guide is steel but it's not very thick. If you are applying side pressure, it might heat up and begin to soften the surrounding plastic which will then deform. The above mentioned lubricant will help prevent this. The jig provides 4 sets of 1/16" guide holes for for pre-drilling the mounting screw holes for the hinge. You may have to mark them by pushing the provided drill bit through each hole to mark the wood surface and then remove the jig and, using a hinge, determine which pair of holes you need to drill for your particular hinge. The jig can then be replaced accurately so you can drill the holes. The instructions show using a clamp to secure the jig to the door during drilling. I strongly suggest that you do that so you can concentrate on keeping your drill straight and not have to worry about holding the jig in position. For my hinges (Blum) the mounting holes were not quite exactly correct. But they were only of by .010" or .020" and they worked just fine anyway. Bottom line is I am very happy with this jig.

works as well as the more expensive ones

as with all milescraft products the instructions leave a bit to be desired, they're multilingual and it gets confusing on where to go next, with that said watch a you-tube video and it's a lot clearer.now for the actual review this thing is awesome once you get to use it, practice first on scrap!.once you get the hang of it it's terrific, the best part is it's self contained, everything stays on the tool for storage, it has the Allen wrench you need for the collar, it even has a drill bit for the screws all stored on the tool, that's a huge plus, as for set up it's really easy if you use common hinges the settings are there already need a non standard dimension no problem, a pair of clamps (sold separately but i bet you already have something that'll work) and clamp it to the piece! easy peasy!how long will it last/ no idea but i don't buy milescraft for extreme daily use I'm a hobbyist so it'll last me some time, a pro may keep it on hand for an emergency or to teach an intern

Can leave marks on your wood

Hinge holes get drilled accurately, BUT, there is inadequate support on the back. So if your are clamping it to soft wood it can/will leave indentations on the wood. Specifically, the hinge marking guide is the biggest problem. The jig deforms when clamped there and thus leaves marks on the wood. Just do away with that part of the jig. The whole thing should be simpler with more solid support on the back.
