Hi
Which Kreg jig do you own? The K3 has a small hole at the back where the allen key fits into. I am not sure about the other models. Hope that helps.

Consider yourself fortunate that you have the 'old style case'. I purchased a K3 Master System this week and I rec'd the bare bones carrying case like they supply with the K4 system. I called customer service and was informed that the old style - a place for everything and everything in it's place - is no longer available. Baaad!

John,
Thanks for your comments on the new case. I'm sorry you were not 100% happy with your purchase. Just for a little background information, the reason we made the switch is as follows:
1) Based on feedback from existing K3 customers, the vast majority left their jig out of the case permanently after the first use, causing the large, single-purpose, case to simply take up room in their shop.
2) The new case is smaller, more compact, easier to store.
3) The new case holds every piece of the Kreg Jig, just as the old case did.
4) The new case is free of pre-molded plastic which limits your use of the case to securing the jig. By simply using a pliers to remove the few plastic tabs, the new case can be completely flattened and used to hold almost anything.
5) The new case keeps prices down and prevented us from having to raise the price of the tool.
6) The new K3 comes with many features that the old one did not, including an improved clamp, SkillBuilder DVD, Spacer Block, etc.
Based on early feedback, the majority of our customers seem to be pleased with the updated K3, and seem to be happy with the value of the product. I'm sorry that your experience has not been the same. Thank you again for your input. I sincerely hope your Kreg Jig experience is a great one!

I have gotten over my snit. I am adaptable - I have mounted the unit on a a board and simply leave the odd bits and pieces in the case. Thanks.

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…
