Drilling Ends

When you are securing the end of a board and
you can position the Deck Jig past the board

a wall), use the center drill guide (1) for superior
strength.

Drilling 45° Decking

deck board.
Then drill using the dashed line as an alignment
guide.

When you are creating a splice at the center of

For correct hole placement, align the edge of
the jig with the splice, as shown.
