Lousy Bits

I have two screw driver bits.  One I got with my Kreg Jr and the head is too small for the screws.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
