Kreg Pocket Hole Jig Recommendation

Nice!

it a lot. The Paslode is almost 3 times the money...but that's all there was when I bought it. ( Butt joining countertop particleboard.)

wood, it pulls both pieces together...to the point where glue has squirted out high enough to hit my glasses. You won't be using it overhead, cuz that mofo has some kick to it.

MDF is REAL cheap hereabouts!

Actually, I agree with you 1000% ... just doing a little chain tugging whilst throwing a ball back (for the hundredth time) to my 19 month old grandson, who will be leaving to go back to England in the morning [ :( ], so in need of the diversion you so generously provided.

Thanks! ;)

An investment in any of the Kreg kits is worthwhile. I have been using pocket holes for years since the jigs became popular and the common denominator is: get a good plug in drill. I work primarily with hardwoods - oak - ash - etc. and a good electric drill will go a long way with making pocket holes.

I have a Kreg and like it, but if I didn't have one I'd consider one of these.

The difference from my Kreg is you can adjust the height, making it easier to handle different widths.
