Welcome Larry. This site is great for tips and tricks and many helpful solutions. I love the Kreg clamps and the face clamps and right angle ones make your pocket hole joints much easier for accuracy. Kreg just came out with the automaxx and have worked with it and hope to add more to my collection. Enjoy your projects!

it serves many useful purposes---
from building to repairing stuff.
