Can hardware store hex couplings be used as drill guides?

To prevent the drill bit from doing any appreciable damage to the thread, you might also want to consider 'jobbing' bits - these have a limited flute length, and are designed to be more rigid than multi purpose bits. Of course, this depends on your material thickness and also the flexibility you have in your jig design as to whether you can stand it off sufficiently prior to the bit contacting the material.

That's actually smart advise, thanks. I haven't considered those bits, I am quite unfamiliar with them but I remember seeing them somewhere...

Regards.
