Don't have a clue, but his jig using 13 ply birch, based on a router
/W/ guide bushing and 1/4" up spiral bit works quite well; however,
his hole layout techniwue sucks.
See Fred Bingham's book for a better method.

Thanks, guess I just needed to know the correct term to Google.
Ordering one tonight.

Thanks for the tip and I like home made jigs but when working with fine
tollerances like with having consistent shelves that don't wobble, I'm going
to order the jig

If you want something a more robust than plastic, take a look at the Lee
Valley offerings such as this one.

"Something similar" is to make your own out of a piece of pegboard. It
won't last as long as the commercial jigs but it can be free if you have the
pegboard in your scrap bin.

Then there's always the MEG Products 32mm Line Boring Router Guide that
Norm has used.
