I have no experience, but my first thought was to wonder how well a

Same here -- which caused me to wonder if you can use a router instead of a drill...

For what it's worth, I have the BeadLock Basic jig. I tried it exactly
once so far, about as quickly and carelessly as I could muster. Still,
it made a nice, tight, well-aligned joint that feels strong even without
glue. (This was a test. I would of course glue any real joint). I have
thoughts of a coffee table using that jig should I manage to finish my
current project with my sanity intact.
