Description of π Kreg KPC1020 Personalized Plug Cutting
Creates plugs that fit standard-size Kreg Jig pocket holes. Positive stop collar ensures perfect drilling depth to produce accurately sized plugs. Open design and enlarged inside diameter provide clearance around plug for easier drilling. Special fluting reduces heat and friction for better plugs and longer bit life. Multi-tooth cutting tip Shears cleanly to produce smooth, consistent plugs.
I tried 4 different pieces of wood and couldn't find a single dowel that looked good and didn't warp. They can be used, but you will need more glue and sawdust to fill them.
Just bought not knowing it also requires special tools. This attachment is only sold as a set (head and attachment) so DO NOT purchase the attachment separately (like I did) unless you already have the attachment. Other attachments (for XL and smaller plugs) are sold separately and all three fit the same attachment.
Most of the tutorials and how-to videos I've watched for cutting pocket hole plugs say that faster drills and slower feed rates result in cleaner cuts. They stress the importance of corded drills, not cordless ones. So I looked for the best drill I could find for the job. I've found that corded drills aren't necessarily faster than battery-powered ones. However, the fastest drill I could find, the Bosch GBM 6 RE, is truly corded.
