Question about drawer slides. Used to install them with a 1/4-inch spacer block for years. Switched to a jig I made from scrap plywood last spring. Way more consistent. Anyone else build their own jig for this?

That jig from scrap plywood is a great idea. What kind of joinery did you use to make it square and sturdy? I always find that's the tricky part with shop-made jigs.

Notice how the best tools are often the ones you make yourself.

Your jig idea sounds way smarter than my old spacer block method.

Right? So much faster. Did you use dados or just glue and screws?
