This is exactly what I needed. I am trying to mount a 2x10 using Amazon bought hardware and I tried making a sled for the drill with the long bit (12”) and the angles were just off. Thank you so much for posting this! I’ve watched 10s of videos but this one solves it.
Love how simple this is. I've got to drill 10" holes into an oak shelf. With this method I can drill the holes, then scribe the back to match the wall and chisel out space for the mounting plate to be hidden. One thing, surely using the metal drill guide on your bench would be better to create your jig and it's as hard to carry as a square
i finished my shelf and went to drill the holes with the exact same shelf hardware you have and was like fuck this does not fit under my drill press i cant believe theres a video for this exact problem ty bro

Did you have to use a router so it flush mounts to the wall. To make up for bracket thickness
You could use a router or a chisel.
