When I first got my jig i bought the wrong screws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they tell you when you drill to work the bit in and out slightly to remove the chips, but definitely don't remove the bit all the way while it is spinning. The drill guides are hardened steel and warranted, but those bits aren't cheap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryNY Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 I love my k4 I got not too long ago, don't know how I ever built stuff without one. I finally bit the bullet when I decided to do a full kitchen install and needed to cobble together a bunch of pieces to make an island: I pocket-holed the crap outta that thing 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 BTW, I just figured out that Sears sells Kreg...which means probably a dozen or more times a year you get $10 off any Kreg item over $20. They have the Kreg R3 kit, screw kit and the face clamp at the same price as HD and Lowe's. My clamp is incoming(for $2.50 out of pocket!), probably will pick up the kit next! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
