This is a large mirror I built for my daughter. It is a copy of one she wanted from Ikea. This is my first project using the Kreg K4 jig. It is 36" x 73". The boards are right at 7" wide

Mary, It is really a simple build, cut the 45's on each end, route a rabbit for the mirror and assemble with the glue and the K4 jig and screws.  The problem I ran into, was 1) I bought cheap lumber which meant it was not straight or true.  and 2) turns out my miter saw does not cut super accurate 45 degree cuts.  These issues caused the difficulty level to go up quite a bit :).  So if you have straight wood and accurate 45's it is super simple.

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…
