The best Ipe connection kit I have ever used

This kit is amazing. Drill the perfect holes and simply glue with the included applicator, insert the plugs and wipe away any excess glue with a damp cloth. After you have greased the boards, the end caps will blend together nicely.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • bad guide

Misleading packaging

Other suggestions, packaging or description should be clear that the drilling tool is not included. According to the packaging and description, the bit is on. This is a screwdriver, not the one in the photo. You must zoom in on the listing pack to see in the circle that the tool pictured is not included. This caused an unnecessary delay in my project.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things

Quick and easy: Plugs

System worked great. There is no measure of the correct depth of screw hole or screw set. A simple drill, screw, glue and cork. I only wish it was 3/8 plugs as I'm working with an existing deck that uses 3/8 plugs. I like the look of the larger plugs.

Pros
  • Use with PRO-PLUG wood tool (sold separately)
Cons
  • Folded

Misleading advertising on the packaging.

I am very disappointed that the box clearly shows a countersink bit, but ATTENTION BUYER, none are supplied! You'd think with the Pro Plug System you get what really makes it a system! It's NOT worth it without a beat.

Pros
  • Makes driving IPE decks quick and easy
Cons
  • Drill Bit Pack

Misleading Photo and Manufacturer's Description

NOTE: The "bit" provided is NOT a Pro-Plug, it is a standard threaded fitting. I would pay extra but the distortion of facts was VERY annoying. Above all, the photo next to the description is annoying, obviously with the aim of misleading. If you make a good product (and apparently you are), then don't bother your customers with misleading advertising. Assemble a kit that includes all the parts you need and charge $50.

Pros
  • (1) PRO-PLUG Glue Nozzle and (1) T-20 Star Nozzle
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging
