Hello,
I am wondering if anyone has used the jig on 3/4 x 3/4 stock. I'm looking
to make some grill panels for some speaker cabinets and need them to be
removable and small.
Thank You,
Jim Shelton

You may be able to do it but I'm guessing there is a better way then pocket screws for something that size. Do you have a picture of something like what you are trying to do?
hi, nice box, I've done some speaker boxes and the best sound came from that of 3/4" MDF, also, glue your joints because of vibrations, I hope this helps
Hello Ben,
This picture is of a box just like mine except the tweeters, they are built with 1/2" (13 ply) Acuaro plywood .
I have folded horn subs built from the same wood light and loud no vibration. Anyways I'm looking to build the grills now

Jim,
When installing screws in plywood, you may experience splitting between the laminated plys,
because the plys are being forced apart.
Make practice pieces from scrap to see if you're getting satisfactory results.
With some joints and their location, it will be beneficial to add glue.
Add glue to joints that will be subjected to stresses; such as vibration, twisting, turning, torquing, or the like.
When using pocket screws, a minimum of 2 is recommended at each joint, when space permits.
If one is experiencing splitting, go to a smaller diameter screw---in some cases, this will solve the splitting problem.
Some joinery methods, when using screws, will require a pilot hole.

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…

Several months ago, I purchased the Kreg K4MS so that I could build the Lego Table as outlined on the companion "buildsomething" web site which exclusively uses pocket hole construction. I have considerable experience with conventional…
