Yes, with use, the holes will become too large and you’ll have to get a new scrap of pegboard. It’s not a big issue if you’re creating a custom piece for each cabinet project.

I love the idea, and plan to adopt it for a large shelving project.

I’ve done it both ways. If you have a sharp drill bit you’ll hopefully get cuts. Sometimes the jig or clamps can mark up the painted surface.

I finished building my bookcase but I keep wondering… do I drill the holes before or after painting?? I’m leaning toward after so the paint doesn’t fill the holes… suggestions?
