Review: Sturdy - Seems to be a solidly built tool.
Review: This tool does not work with 2 3/8 hand rails. - This tool does not line up with the specs that come with the Zipbolts , the holes end up at the lower 1/3 of the 2 - 3/8 railing instead of dead center. Also, the tool moves all over the place even after you use a vice to help it stay still. This tool is a total waste of time and may end up costing you money.

### ⭐ This tool does not work with 2 3/8 hand rails.
*by J***K on March 24, 2024*

This tool does not line up with the specs that come with the Zipbolts , the holes end up at the lower 1/3 of the 2 - 3/8 railing instead of dead center. Also, the tool moves all over the place even after you use a vice to help it stay still. This tool is a total waste of time and may end up costing you money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I definitely suggest this drill guide if you are trying to install zipbolt hardware
*by N***B on February 8, 2020*

This made installing the Zipbolt hardware really easy. Without question worth the money - it helps reduce the risk of making tiny mistakes that end up costing you a lot of time. I really like the little pins that dig into the wood and hold everything in place.
