Jig for laying out holes at 0.5 and 1.5" from edge

thingiverse

I needed to markup a lot of holes on 1" centers and 1/2" from an edge, so I made this very simple jig to make life easier. It worked well, so just in case it's useful to you, here it is :) There is a slot in the middle with angled ends for lining up with a distance mark as well as triangular notches at each end. The two holes are conical to give good alignment on an automatic center punch, and there is a lip which aligns with the outer edge. It's really very quick to use compared to measuring and punching by eye. Update: sorry, I messed up the title, hope this didn't confuse anyone. The first hole is 0.5 inches from the edge, the second hole is at 1.5 inches, i.e. 1" between centers. Print Settings Printer: Home made Rafts: No Supports: No Notes: Print settings aren't critical. There's some writing on the bottom which probably won't be readable unless you use a small nozzle but it's not important.
