“It will place 4 holes, 90 degrees apart, or 3 holes 120 degrees apart."
If you are like me and don't have a drill press, you can use this drill jig to drill the holes for your fish-eye hooks and riv-nuts. I used 1/4" machine screws for my fish-eyes and riv-nut machine screws. For the actual riv-nuts, I used a 3/8" drill bit and I spent about $20 on the riv-nut tool. I recommend starting the holes with the 1/4" drill bit and finishing with the 3/8" drill bit.
