This is a simple jig I made to drill holes to add another shelf to my bookshelf. The f3d files are parametric and you can change the diameter of the pegs and the distance between pegs. STP files also included. It may take a couple tries to get right. Mine didn't match my shelf perfectly, but it's a kids bookshelf so I didn't care.

Instructions: Insert the two pegs into existing holes then drill in the remaining holes. Repeat as necessary. 

Learn from my mistakes: 

  • Print two because the pegs are fragile and likely to break with repeated use.
  • Print the tall version to guide the bit for a straighter hole.
  • Print these bounding rings to help stop the bit at the appropriate depth.

Good luck!
