Default Drill guide

I have a problem drilling the hole for a woodworm screw perpendicular to
the blank, causing the blank to wobble.

To help me, I made a drill guide. It is bell-shaped with the bottom
diameter about 4 inches. I made the height enough that the drill
protrudes 3/4 inch making it a drill stop also. I hollowed the bottom
around the central hole to allow for chips when drilling. It works for me.
