Review on 🔧 Lytool Pocket Hole Jig Kit: Portable Woodworking Drill with 8 Depth Settings, 10 PCS Pocket Plugs, 2 Magnet Holes & Adjustable Slider by Sameer Hilton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

More versatile than "other " pocket hole fasteners, but with a few quirks.

TL:DR - Buy it for the price and ease of use. Pros: - This surprised me since I have a "blue" pocket hole tool. The problem with this is that it's big and heavy. This thing is much easier to transport, especially if you don't have a production line - High quality drill bit - Regular hinges on the body, not just bendy plastic. Cons: - The coating on the screwdriver came off after 8 screws - Not sure what the use case is for magnets. They just kept "reaching" for screws, drill bits, etc. The gray adjuster has no positive "stops". I had to use tape to hold it in place and I kept checking the adjustment. Thoughts: - The photos of this item show a metal clip holding the tool. I have found it to be MUCH easier to use a regular bar clamp; View with plastic or rubber sponges. Didn't stick to inexplicable magnets and didn't damage the wood it worked with. In general, I am very satisfied with the system. Compatible with "blue" fasteners. I think the few mounts that came with this kit are a pretty useless lot. You will need more.
