"This fixture is almost unusable. The target for the drill bit cannot be seen and there are zero exterior marks/notches/indents by which to line the fixture with the target.

Quality piece of equipment.

"Works as intended. It would be nice if the threaded depth adjustments were matched up to the exact same thread. The same number of twists didn't equal the same distance on mine. Angled drilling was hell without this."
