Does anyone know if this drill jig or similar is available?

I'm researching and a jig and reamer seems like good idea. From what I've read sweep seems to be a bigger issue than incidence. Either way, there's vary little room for error drilling the rear spar. A jig would hopefully prevent drilling a crooked hole and busting an edge distance.
There's still lots to do but this is one operation I don't want to mess up. My rear spars are trimmed per plan and I put a flush rivet in the skin where the spar may touch. Hopefully all is as it needs to be (fingers crossed). Planning ahead.
