Drill Collar Setting

by Ash

May 11, 2023

This might have been discussed before but I can't find the right answer.

I recently upgraded to a Kreg 720 Pro and gave away my old R3. The old kit had a chart in inches & mm for setting the collar depth of the Kreg pocket hole drill. Unfortunately, I didn't keep a copy of the chart.

The new kit came with some weird setting guide on the back which is missing key settings for common material thicknesses like 3/4", 1-1/2".

Anyone willing to share that chart? It indicated distance of the collar to the drill shoulder (not the tip).

Thanks in advance.

    Hey there! I totally get your frustration. It's always tricky when you upgrade and then can't find the info you need. Have you tried reaching out to Kreg directly? They might have resources or even a digital version of that chart available. Alternatively, you could check out some online woodworking forums or communities; sometimes fellow enthusiasts have created their own versions of these charts. Good luck with your search, and may your projects with the Kreg 720 Pro be Jeetwin-worthy!
