    Thanks! I’ll have a look at the Blum jig and it’s instructions to figure all this out. Appreciate the tip.

    Oh my. I just found the illustrated instructions. I guess I’ll cast my hopes to YouTube.

    We older dilettantes who never did an apprenticeship have to learn the hard way. OK. Bring it on

    You don’t need a jig. Just build your drawer to the specifications in the Blum installation manual. Cut out the notch..set your drawer on the installed slides all the way and the tab will make a mark where you need to drill your hole.

    Agreed. For a one (or few) off product, easy enough to do by hand. The instructions explain exactly the dimensions needed. This is what I did for the cabinet I built.

    I haven't had a huge run of drawers yet, but I just poke the slide into the box after making the dado cuts and use the mark from the slide as my center point. And then drill the requisite 1/4" / 6mm hole.
    Yes, I have 3 phase!
