16mm Drill Guide STL Models for 3D Printing

Depth gauges sit on the bit and set how far it enters the material, while straight and multi-angle jigs hold the drill body or bit at a chosen angle. Panel and dowel guides focus on edge work and joint alignment, often with bushings for common bit sizes. Dust-collector versions add a port or chamber around the hole, and some guides are shaped for a specific bit shank or extrusion profile.

On the model page, check the stated bit size and shank diameter, the number of parts, and whether assembly uses screws, magnets or press fits. Look at the wall thickness around the bushing and the contact area against the workpiece, because these affect how the guide sits during drilling. The author's material and settings notes, plus photos of real prints, help you judge how the part behaves on your 3D printer.

If you need a different size, try search terms such as drill depth stop, drill jig, dowel drilling guide, pocket hole jig or corner clamp guide. Related topics include dust collection for drilling, Forstner bit guides, extrusion brackets and repair plates that use drilled holes. Adding the material or panel type, like plywood or MDF, can narrow results further.
