I used the micro to repair 1/2 inch drawers in our RV. The glued dovetail joints were coming apart. The drawers are now rock solid. The trick is test pieces first. No glue needed.

<p>I didn't realize there was such a product until I started my latest project (I just posted some photos); the Kreg Jig Custom Storage Unit. It was a project to give me some practice. Basically the Micro Jig allows you to use 3/4" screws with 1/2" material, with no fear of blowing through the holes. Also, the holes are 25% smaller, according to Kreg literature. The price for the Micro Jig Pocket Drill Guide was much better at Amazon than Lowe's.</p> Thanks, Richard, for taking t…tag:kregjig.ning.com,2013-09-09:2900167:Comment:5682832013-09-09T19:02:36.875ZKregRephttps://kregjig.ning.com/profile/KregRep
<p>Thanks, Richard, for taking time to comment on your experience with the Micro. I'm happy to hear that it worked well for you. You're correct that 1/2" ply is a perfect application for this tool. I'll be anxious to see the results!</p>

<p>The Micro Jig is impressive. I used it on the Kreg Jig Custom Storage Unit, with 1/2" birch plywood. Basically, it was a practice project. EVERY hole was perfect. I didn't blow through any holes or poke through on the "other/finish side". And, the holes are smaller. It really did a good job. I'll post a photo as soon as the finish dries. I had a can of 10 year old poly urethane and decided to put it on the unit. I think I'd be uncomfortable using the regular jig on 1/2" plywood. </p>

<p>Richard, Great to hear your project turned out well. I would be interested to know what the difference is between the regular Jig and the Micro Jig? </p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
