Default Where can I get a "drill guide"?

I remember having one of these at one time but can't find it in any
stores anymore.

It's a guide that you attach to a hand held power drill that helps make
90degree holes and holse in the center of the board edge. Some of them
have guide bars that slide down to guide it.

I've looked at Home Depot and Lowes and can't find one.

Thanks in advance,
Tom P.

check out places that sell stuff for sheet metal work on aircrafts, its
something you need in the aircraft building industry. Also google it as
well I am sure you will find something.

I have a Craftsman drill guide. The base is cast aluminum and it has
steel rods with a dowel rest--very useful and cleaver device, although
today I use my drill press instead. I still use the cast base on my
drill press for holding & drilling dowel rods.
