Kreg Owners' Community

I told my wife when I started this was going to take a while.  Woodworking is a hobby and I wanted to keep it that way.  We liked the basic layout of the kitchen and the cupboards were solid but oh so ugly with the sliding doors.  Being retired there's not a lot of extra money so we decided to go with refacing the cupboards to start.  I bought the kreg jig after doing the first wall of cupboards.  Made a world of difference, I was able to build the frames in the shop and then take them apart as needed to move to the kitchen then install it.  I already had most of the tools needed so for less than $ 1K I was able to get the cupboards done.  Next is paint kitchen, new floor then new countertop.   Cupboards are white ash with baltic birch panels.

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.
