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.”

NEW PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT! The Metric V-DrillGuide® (10-14mm)

Big Gator Tools has now launched a larger metric drill guide that goes up to 14mm! This drill guide has a Lifetime Warranty and is made from hardened alloyed steel throughout the entire guide.

This drill bit guide, called the Metric V-DrillGuide® (10 – 14mm) is the 5th drill guide by Big Gator Tools and the 2nd metric version. This marks the 9th tool designed & patented by Big Gator Tools. Manufacture Part Number: MDG2000NP

Our V-DrillGuide® is a handy tool that’s portable to fit into awkward angles and allows you to drill straight. Drilling straight at times can be challenging or “eyeballing” it just might not work in your project. Let’s be precise!

The Metric V-DrillGuide® (10 – 14mm) has 9 smooth holes: 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14mm.

Use the drill bit guide on corners, round or flat parts. Time and money will be saved by drilling a hole only once with perfectly aligned holes on wood, plastic, metal or other surfaces. All of the drill guides feature a 90° “V-groove” design that runs through the entire guide. This “V-groove” is found on the bottom of the drill guide and ensures perpendicular alignment on round and cornered material. AKA: it works fantastic on corners and round edges! The hole sizes and hole alignment marks are permanently embedded onto the guide to allow quick and explanatory drilling sizes.

Easy to use: hold the drill guide on the material with the “V-groove” side resting on the drillable surface, clamp and drill. Drill Straight – Every Time!  

Quality tools for quality people is a value we uphold. This drill guide is 100% American made and will last for generations to come; we back that idea by offering a Lifetime Warranty.
