Axle Compatibility
Customers have generally positive feedback regarding the Pinewood Derby PRO Driller Tool's compatibility with axles. The tool allows for easy alignment and drilling of symmetrically aligned canted axles, providing a snug fit. However, some customers noted that it drills axle holes higher on the body than traditional kits, requiring attention to bottom clearance.

Highlights
Quality
The product was very high-quality and will probably last forever.
I love the fact that the guide gholes are on both sides, i dont have to drill, reposition, repeat 4x.
After drilling one side, we flipped, lined up with the pencil mark again and drilled the opposite side.
We dabbed a small amount of wood glue to the axle before inserting the final time, because the holes seemed to be getting loose... Read More
Price
Less expensive than the pin bending jigs, and allows you to use straight pins.
For a couple of $$, i managed not to teach any youngsters any new four letter words.
Even though i was reluctant to spend $20 on this, i now wish i had bought it a few years ago!
A bit pricey, but if you are doing multiple cars or have multiple kids, this is a useful item.
Competitiveness
We lost to competitors who used turned wheels and raised 4th wheels.
Boys won 1st and second place at their pack pinewood derby as well as 1st and 6th at the district race.

I can’t imagine being able to drill if the basic holes accurately without this or a well equipped tool room

To move on to trying to drill the canted holes and rail rider configuration without this fixture would surely have me tearing out my hair

If i could give one suggestion on the next super deluxe model have clamping ability built right in though i understand doing something like that would probably make this specialized tool cost prohibitive for most people

Did not improve performance of any of the cars it was used on

However my daughter and i cut our car bodies down to 1434 tall and this tool will not drill a raised wheel in a body that thin
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Not hard to use but recommend clamping as others have said which helps to keep the block stationary especially for a younger child trying to do the drilling
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The drill bit fit perfectly and when set up correctly drilled a straight hole
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This made inserting the axels easier though they were still snug as not to wobble
