When you're building and do not want to see screws on your projects, the Pocket Hole Joint is the way to go. It's an extremely strong joint, and you can use it on any type of project and every screw is neatly hidden away. A Pocket Hole is an angled hole drilled into one board, which then allows you to drill a screw through to another board. The Pocket Hole Jig makes drilling the angled hole easy. Adjustable guides and stop collar bits help with the width and depth of your hole.
To use a Pocket Hole Jig, simply clamp it to your workspace, adjust the guides for the thickness of your hole, and adjust the stop collar bit for the depth. Make sure your wood is clamped tightly into the jig, and you are ready to drill. Place your bit in the guide and drill. Back the drill out to clear away the chips and to prevent overheating.
To join the boards you will need the appropriate screws and the correct driver. To build your piece you want to align your parts and use wood glue to strengthen your joints even further. Drill the screws into the wood, but let the glue dry to prevent any shifting. To finish use wooden plugs if you need to position your holes on the outside of your piece.
For sleek, strong finishes, use a Pocket Hole on your next project. For more information visit

- rey nieto: podrían de favor hacerlos vídeos en español en verdad se los agradeceria. grasias
- 915Mang: Nice job on the video
- 3scape4rtist: +Al Complaint From what i've read, you should use a washer-headed type screw. Drywall, and several other types of wood screws have a countersinking head that, if you're not careful, will drive right through your joint and possibly split the wood in the process.
- John Coonradt jr.5: How do you adjust the guide if the wood is two inches thick
- andruluvsu: Great video, tightly edited, packed with info, wish more were like this
- Peter Martin: A video that provides a beautiful and well explanation of how to use a pocket hole jig, by a beautiful host....Two thumbs up.
- Al Complaint: Ah! thanks for sharing. Thinking i'm buying soon or project
- Lowe's Home Improvement: Nope. It's designed to fit the Kreg bit perfectly. Thanks for watching!
- Lowe's Home Improvement: +Al Complaint using drywall screws in wood can cause problems. Drywall screws are made and threaded differently; they may snap in hardwood and thread pattern may actually force boards apart. Thanks for watching our video.
- Luis G.: Thank you for the video it helped me a lot I didn't know how to use 👍🏿
- Ann Metzler: I learned more in this short video about how to use a Kreg than most other videos combined! Thanks
- securityplus: +sharpstick as a carpenter, I would agree with you, though the manufacturers say their screws are designed to prevent wood splitting ( i guess like aeroplanes are designed not to crash) you may have to start the screw to make a mark, de clamp and then pilot drill. they al;so say that professional cabinet makers have been using this method for years, and i can also tell you the only time this is used by professionals is when attaching a seat to a chair frame or top to a table frame
- URBAN PIKE & PERCH: Wow
- Dane H: Very good video, Thank you!
- Michael Wilson: can you tell us how big the tears were you cried? WAAAAAAA
- Detecting The South with yarddigger & GW: Kreg. Pocket hole jig.
Several products available in the jig line
- George Fear: No. The holes IMO are used for spacing between holes in NARROW stock (less than 6").
- Badmin X: Super JIG & super-super Girl :))
- tirpitz19: Just for strength.
- sharpstick: I am concerned that this doesn't show drilling a pilot hole into the second piece to prevent splitting. It will probably be okay most of the time, but forcing a screw into the end of a plank can cause splitting. Also if the wood is very hard, it might not be able to force its way in at all.
- James Dusch: right? and amazingly short. I hate long, run on, instructional videos. This video is great!! Hadn't used my kreg jig in a while and just wanted to refresh my memory. If you work with wood, you need a Kreg jig....
- Bill Nolfe: Good video.
- keith dehaan: hi , can l get this in New Zealand . And can it be tranlated to metric .
And how much whould it cost , deliverd tothe Kapity Coast.
Thanks Keith
- Laura G Photos and Film: Very useful tool !!
- Korina Delatorre: Right!!!
- securityplus: "self tapping", unless they have a drill tip, is still forcing a gap between grains.
- J Rizzo: +sweetbrandigirl Be grateful, my young padawn
- Bradbury Robinson: +bradburyrobinson Actually, checking my own comment you could be correct. The little end bit of the drill does only seem to sit in the first bit of wood. Maybe the screws are designed for this purpose but it's possibly a valid point that the wood could split in certain instances.
Maybe some people who currently use this could confirm if this is the case?
- WE Hart: This is more informative than the boringly long video on the DVD that came with my Kreg jig I bought yesterday.
- Jordon Frye: This is how one does social media. Props to your marketing team.
- Keith Karma: Finally..a video done right. Straight to the point, fast and accurate with none of the fluffy bullshit that I normally have to fast forward thru. Thank you!
- TERRY Lovell: I have all the KREG JIGS-including the HD (for larger dimensional lumber-2x4 and 4x4) and HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL THE KREG PRODUCTS-also they have an EXCELLENT WEB SITE which ibclude some great plans-if you master the Miter saw and the Kreg pocket hole jig a world od building opens up to you!
- Motor Torpedo Boat: Brilliant well presented video which showed exactly how the jig works. Thank you.
- Alberto A A: Muy bien. Esta intrigado como usar esta herramienta
- sweetbrandigirl: Would have been nice if you told us what pocket hole jig kit you were using, especially since this video was sponsered by lowes. Can you say missed opportunity ?
- Timothy Chokas: Thank you. There are many many options and opinions out there from a vast variety of experience. Not all of us have the opportunity to be trained nor have the tools to learn mortise and tenon, finger joinery, and dove tailing etc. This is a nice tool that works in certain projects where you might not need all of the extra strength. Thanks for the quick useful tip and now all I just have to do is figure out what size screws fit certain size boards. Thank you for your time.
- Huh-wha-huh?: sweetbrandigirl. that is a kregg pocket hole jig.
- Lowe's Home Improvement: Thank you for the positive feedback! - Lowe's
- Lennox: Thank you , but all these videos are super fast , please slow down and take your time ,thanks .
- David Sants: very accurate and clear instructions
- securityplus: +keith dehaan renovator is selling these in NZ on their website renovator.co.nz but you would be better off learning how to make proper joins
- Vagabond Vans: I'm in love 😍. Great video. Thanks
- Ronie Buenaseda: Now I'm learning, tnx...
- kakungulu: Personally, I'm addicted to my biscuit joiner and generally have trust issues when it comes to anything that's not glue+tenon+mortise. However, this looks like a great way to avoid the clamping blues. If I can glue all my work at once, using the pocket screws instead of the wobbly clamps, it's worth the investment. Any thoughts?
- Amanda Broxterman: moo buu on
- davethepak: One of the benefits of using the actual kreg screws - they are self tapping to prevent splitting. They are a bit more expensive, but the between the self tap an the flat head many who use them think the are worth it.
- Al Complaint: Can I use drywall screws instead?
- Last Life Lost: well said
- m Finch: different width boards
- Bradbury Robinson: +bradburyrobinson Seems that it can be an issue but the screws have certain features to minimise this: http://kregjig.ning.com/forum/topics/tips-to-avoid-wood-splitting
- Madcat100: Does the drill bit get damaged by the jig??
- fsbell1: Why are there multiple holes (3)? Different sizes?
- OBServe Garage: To plug Kreg jig pocket holes, simply put a little wood glue in the pocket hole. Then, shove a 3/8" dowel into the pocket hole as far as it will go. Next, cut the dowel flush with a Japanese pull saw. Finally, sand the area and you will never know the pocket hole was there when panted. To fill the next pocket hole, cut the angled portion of the dowel off and repeat the process. You could even use a different species of wood for your dowel to leave as accents in your joinery. Easy peezy,, Japaneezy (pun intended).
