When you design it yourself, there are no instructions!
Handy Tip:
In tight spots, you can use a screw bit in a socket and drive it with a ratchet.

Great tip! On my charging station, I ended up drilling through the outside of the case because I didn't think of that.  I'll know for next time, Thanks

If your Kreg pocket holes are getting harder to drill, or your drill bit gets excessively hot during operation, it may be time to get your drill bit(s) professionally sharpened. Luckily, the professionals at Kreg are here to help you out.
