What is the difference between mdg1000np and std1000dgnp drill guides?

The Big Gator Tools MDG1000NP V-Drill Guide is to be used with drill bits in metric sizes ie mm and the Big Gator Tools STD1000DGNP V-Drill Guide is for use with bits in parts of inches (imperial sizes). Cheers

I'm very confused as to what i'm buying. The picture show one piece 17 hole drill guide. Upon adding to cart I see a 9 hole drill guide.

Hi Nick. I have bought 3 different drill guides by Big Gator. I could safely say from the product description, it accounts for the 17 holes sizes. However I did check out the picture of the product after adding item to cart, is for 9 holes which I do have also.--but is for larger standard hole sizes. Therefore the 9 hole guide picture is incorrect for the product .

Does it damage the drill bits?

NO. Not if using correctly. Drill bit should be inserted completely before drilling. Drill bit should be "free" in guide and not snug. A little cutting oil can help reduce friction. Metal on metal will always cause some wear, so damage and wear to drill bits has a lot do do with how they are used.

Does this include imperial system units or metric system?

Good question!! mDG1000 - Includes 17 metric drill sizes: 3mm, 3.3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, 5.5mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 6.8mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.5mm. The STD1000 is imperial (SAE) 17 drill sizes, from 1/8" to 3/8", in 1/64" increments and the STD2000 - Includes 9 standard drill sizes: 3/8", 25/64", 13/32", 27/64", 7/16", 29/64", 15/32", 31/64", 1/2" Hope this helps. We have them in stock.
