Butt hinges a jig needed?

[Graham Orm]

Put your hinge in place and draw a circle with a very sharp pencil or fill the hole in completely so that when you remove the hinge you can see the complete outline of each screw hole. With the hinge removed take a very sharp bradawl and mark the centre. Find a piece of dowel or make something similar and drill a hole in the end with the pilot drill. Glue in the the blunt end of the pilot drill. You now have a lightweight and delicate pilot drill that you can screw in like a screw driver.

Not a very nice complaint I am told.
