Event Description
A chat with the man who invented the Kreg Jig!
On February 2nd at 12:00 CST, Craig Sommerfeld (the owner of Kreg Tool Company) will be sitting down with KregRep to chat with all of the members of the Kreg Jig Owners' Community, and answer any questions they have have about how he got the idea for the Kreg Jig, what the company was like at the beginning, how things have changed over the years, and anything else they want to know!
To participate in the chat, simply visit https://kregjig.ning.com/chat on Tuesday the 2nd at 12:00 noon central time. You're more than free to just sit back and listen, but hopefully many will come with questions pre-planned!

Is there a set size of screws for each thickness of boards, such as 3/4" or 1 1/2"? I may miss the chat Tues. but would like an answer on this board if possable.

I am almost done building the small book case. I have one question. When joining boards together such as for the top of that case it is recommended to alternate the "age rings" of the board. OK I understand that. However, there seems to be a bit of "bowing" now that it is together. What suggestion have you got for reaching "far into" the length of the boards in order to keep the joint flat?

Just starting with kreg equip. I have the kreg Jr, right ang. clamp and general clamp. I have ordered the Kreg jig unit from Lowe's about 8-10 days ago. I talked to them Fri. last week and they were going to get one from a store in another city and call me. I've never even thought of using pocket holes for tables or other small things, but have really been plesently supprised how well it works and how easy it is to do. I am retired building inspector from a small city and do like to do small things with my hands now. Will try to sit in on the chat tomorrow. Thanks for a great product. wallace

Product Reviews
New Kreg 720Pro
I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
