I must have been a good boy, Santa did bring me the Axminster de-luxe pocket hole jig I wanted!
After an initial 'play' it looks like a great piece of kit, fast, simple & very accurate - and the joints are incredibly strong, even without glue.
Works very well in MDF, no 'splitting' out when making up corner joints.
I reckon the 1 1/4" screws will be the most used, seem perfect for 18mm PAR and MDF.
Highly recommended.

OK, I've seen the photo:
What does it do?
Makes a hole in your pocket?
Similar to
Yes but what does it *really* do :-)
It's a jig for drilling holes in wood at different angles, minus the drill mind. He'll prolly use it once in a blue moon.

It enables you to make joints in wood of all types, but without the need to clamp while the glue dries.
It can be used to replace the mortice & tennon, the half lap etc.

It's far more than that if you have any woodworking knowledge & some imagination.
You are having a laugh. I've already used it!

But it fails when making draws and cases using 3/8" wood. :-)

It's a piece of "Kit" ! Allows you to make reproduction Ikea or Mfi like furnishings with sawdust wood (MDF) Every craftsman cabinetmaker should have one. ;(
