🔧 Milescraft 1325 PocketJig200 - Enhanced Pocket Hole Jig Kit for Precise and Efficient Joinery Review

FIX: After tightening less than two dozen screws, the tips of both screwdrivers broke off. I didn't even have that much torque on my drill and they just fell off. This is pretty bad stuff. While I'm sure Craig's version is better overall, it's a lot more expensive. I would like the drill guide tubes to be clad over a longer distance as I had a lot of plastic shavings in the first few holes I drilled. The latch on the jig could be a little stronger, but it holds. The instructions that came with…

To use the Pocket Screw Tool, here's what you need to do. 1) Install jig 2) Fix jig in position 3) Install stop block on drill bit 4) Drill 5) Allow wood dust to come out 6) Clamp workpiece (this is not the work of jig) 7) Screw in pocket screw This jig has all of these steps correct done except the dust is gone. There's nowhere for the dust to go except pull the drill all the way out. Not comfortable and room for improvement. I didn't have any problems with the Torx T20 screwdriver either. The

Very disappointed. Bought because of the great reviews. Mine arrived a few weeks ago and I haven't tried them yet. The packaging, fit and finish of the product looked good. However, when I tried, one of the drill guides was so tight that the included drill bit/drill did NOT fit the hole! The other was tight but ok. To finish my project I literally had to ream this hole open. metal and plastic! Terrible sits on that left side hole. So tight that even though I thought I'd drilled it enough, the…

Not as good as the Kreg R3 Jr., this pocket hole gauge is also 33% cheaper. It's up to you to decide whether it's worth saving a few euros. Don't get me wrong, it does everything it's supposed to, but not very well. First, the case is overly large and bulky compared to the Kreg. You'll have to disassemble all the pieces to put them back in place while you can leave the drill collar on the drill in Kreg. Second, the screws have a torx head, which isn't a bad thing in itself, but makes it…

This works as intended. If you have the patience and aren't doing a large project that requires lots of countersunk screws, this will work for you. BUT. if you can see multiple projects in your future. or you really like working with wood I suggest that you either save your money and buy a KREG JIG K4 set or if your budget allows. K5 kit is amazing. I have 2 sets of KREG JIG K4 and have made some beds and tables. bookshelf and more. If I had to use a Milescraft Pocket Jig kit or a Kreg Jig R3 I

I used this for the first time last night. My daughter wants a stage for the corner of her room. So I take measurements, take wood and start cutting. Then I quickly understand how I will collect all this? I realize I haven't opened this set yet, so I decided to give it a try. Instructions: not clear. Do yourself a favor and check out the 5 minute YouTube link that shows the kit's features and how to use it. Much clearer than written instructions. I write to earn a living and there just wasn't…
