Tools and Hardware Reviews of Kreg Jig K4 Pocket Hole SystemCustomer Review: Nicely made but very poor design Summary: 1 StarsThis thing CAN make very nice pocket hole joints but the markings on the jig are USELESS. I set it up exactly as it says in the instructions with exactly the right screw type and screw length and with the jig set to exactly the matching dimensions of my wood. Then I tried 3 times to make a joint. EVERY time the wood split on the face of the rail (assuming standard rail and stile construction). The pocket hole comes out far too close to the face with the tip of the screw about 1/8" from the face. No wonder it splits. So I then adjusted it by trial and error and got it to work fine by essentially lying about the thickness of my stock. Setting it to 5/8" instead of 3/4" and then eyeballing the depth gauge on the drill bit rather than using the built in guide made it work. I would have really been bummed if I hadn't practiced on some scrap stock firs.
Customer Review: Pocket screw jig (Kreg) Summary: 5 StarsI am very satisfied with this jig and communication and shipping were fast and very acceptable. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Customer Review: holding corners Summary: 5 StarsGreat little device to drill screw pockets. The included DVD was very helpful and full of hints for use of the jig. This is a great tool for furniture making and repair.
Customer Review: The right jig. Summary: 5 StarsThis is a great jig, I wish now Iwould have gotten one earlier, but I did get more by purchasing later on and its been improved.
Customer Review: great tool Summary: 5 StarsMy husband had always wanted to try the pocket-hole jig,and now after watching the video and also one on cabinet making, he has made me a side table, and my 16-year-old son made a table for our deck. It is easy to use and took no time at all to make projects. Now he wants to make us all new kitchen cabinets!!! Great tool.
