A Small Tool Gloat

[MarkE]

I have made a few small projects using pocket hole joinery with a Kreg Jig. One of the small portable jigs with 2 holes. Well, I am in the process of building a changing table/dresser for my Granddaughter using some plans my Daughter picked out. The plans called for lots of doweled joints, something that I have never been very good at making. So I got 'permission' to upgrade my Kreg Jig.

This is the Kreg K3 Master System. The kit came with the small (3") face clamp and Rockler also included the large (6") face clamp. I also picked up the right angle clamp.

Can't wait to start using this system.

Nice!! That's on my list too.....

Congrats on a very nice tool snag, Mark. I'm willing to bet that the Kreg is on many a wish list.

I bought a Kreg K3 Master System when they first came out several years ago and it is one of the best "tools" (actually a jig) in my shop. It is easy to learn to use, promotes sturdy joinery and works like a dream -- for my few money-making projects, it is a real asset. You'll love it!

Congrats, Mark. I hope you enjoy your system as much as I have enjoyed mine. I think you will find it very handy.

Anything to do with pocket screws with the name Kreg on it has to be good. Thank you Craig Somerfeld. I own a couple of the original A-2's, one of which I converted to clamp in the front. Also have two of the K2000's, along with several of the single hole jigs (cheapest way to buy a new bit) and a rocket (two holes.) Last year, at the show, I bought a couple of the drilling guide blocks that fit the K-3 and K-4. I've already figured how to make it into a front clamp. Once you own a Kreg, you will figure new ways for a lot of jobs. I'm currently looking at the mini. Klingspor has the best price on the mini, even before discount
