Each guide is heat-treated for durability, allowing a tight tolerance. The guides work great on corners and round and flat surfaces. 100% American-made quality steel and a Lifetime Warranty on every guide!

NEW PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT! The Standard V-DrillGuide 33/64″-5/8″

LOUISBURG, KANSAS – Big Gator Tools continues to expand its drill guide line with the introduction of the new Standard V-DrillGuide® (33/64”-5/8”). This drilling accessory allows users to have the precision of a drill press for a fraction of the price without losing accuracy. The Standard V-DrillGuide® (33/64”-5/8”) is expected to debut at the 2021 National Hardware Show October 21-23 in Las Vegas, NV.

This drill bit guide is the 6th drill guide by Big Gator Tools and the 4th standard version. This marks the 10th tool designed and patented by Big Gator Tools. Manufacturer Part Number: STD3000DGNP.

“This new Standard drill guide has 8 hole sizes, and is the largest Standard version available going up to 5/8”,” said Bruce Rooney, Owner of Big Gator Tools and designer of the Standard V-DrillGuide® (33/64”-5/8”). “It’s like a portable drill press, very precise. Drill straight, every time.”

The portable Standard V-DrillGuide® (33/64”-5/8”) is easy to use: position the drill guide on the material, clamp, and drill. It can be used on various surfaces.

Use on round, corners or flat materials. Can be used on metal, wood, plastic & more!

The Standard V-DrillGuide® (33/64”-5/8”) has 8 holes that will not be worn out because of the rigorous heat-treatment process we use for the steel tool.  These holes are smooth, unlike drilled or reamed holes. The hole sizes and hole alignment marks are permanently embedded onto the guide to allow quick and explanatory drilling sizes. The 8-hole sizes (1/64” increments): are 33/64”, 17/32”, 35/64”, 9/16”, 37/64”, 19/32”, 39/64”, 5/8”.

All of our various V-DrillGuides stand out in the industry and are considered innovative due to the 90° “V-groove” design that runs through the entire guide. The “V-groove” is found on the bottom of the guides that allow users to drill on round or cornered material. The bottom also features a flat base to allow users to work on flat surfaces.

All V-DrillGuides carry a lifetime warranty and are 100% USA-made. Time and money will be saved by drilling a hole once with perfectly aligned holes on wood, plastic, metal or other surfaces.

Big Gator Tools Wins a 2018 Pro Tool Innovation Award

Judging for the 2018 Pro Tool Innovation Awards was completed this week and Big Gator Tools received an award for the Metric V-DrillGuide (10-14mm). A panel of judges made up of tool and media professionals from across the United States and Canada weighed in on entries from top global manufacturers.

Here’s what the judges had to say about Big Gator Tools – Metric V-DrillGuide (10-14mm): Big Gator Tools takes their Pro Tool Innovation Award-winning design to another level with an expansion into metric sizes. The guide plus a clamp or two set up perfect holes without a drill press, even on corners and round workpieces. They back their build quality with a lifetime warranty and it’s a Made in the USA product. At $30, it’s a lot cheaper than a drill press and a heck of a lot more portable.

Hundreds of power tools, hand tools, fasteners, and accessories were judged, and winners were decided based on industry innovation. Winners demonstrated achievement in any combination of the following: innovative features, advanced power delivery, groundbreaking ergonomics, technological advancements, and value. The Pro Tool Innovation Awards recognize best-in-class products that are truly ahead of their time.

This year, over 60 different tool manufacturers submitted nearly 300 tool entries in dozens of categories for a shot to win a 2018 Pro Tool Innovation Award.

“Manufacturers are consistently improving their tools. Each year, however, some exceed the norms and develop products which truly deserve recognition. Business owners, builders, contractors, and tradespeople really need to understand which products can help them work smarter and more efficiently,” said Clint DeBoer, Executive Director of the Pro Tool Innovation Awards. “Often, they can also save a lot of money in either material costs or time-savings. That innovation goes straight into their pocketbook.”
