Coat Rack and Mitten Stand From Old CD Rack

Step 5Drill the Angled Holes

Drill the Angled Holes
Take the board you want to use for the coat rack, and mark 4 equally spaced spots through the center of the board. Using the same paddle bit as before, put the point of the paddle bit down onto the mark. Now tilt the drill down so that the battery touches the ground.
If this angle looks good, go ahead and drill. If it's too shallow, but a board under the board you're drilling into. If it's too steep, put a board under the drill.

Repeat this step to drill all 4 holes. If you use this trick, all four holes angles should be the same. Drill just deep enough so that the hole makes a perfect oval.
