<p>Porter Cable's pocket hole jig while a good tool is overpriced and over complicated for a simple pocket hole joint.</p>
<p>I have many Porter cable tools, but this is not on my list. Kreg did it right!</p>

<p>Porter-Cable makes some great tools, for the industry.</p>
<p>Don't knock it, if you haven't tried it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Speaking of over-kill---</p>
<p>one doesn't need a semi-trailer truck, when a pickup truck will suffice.</p>

From what I can tell the things main claim to fame is an automatically setting depth stop based on the material thickness. Not worth $200 to me, maybe to some.

Looks more like a camera than any tool for woodworking. Maybe they are taking photos for plot maps to figure out where to put the pocket holes, you think? They will have to do better than this to beat Kreg Tools even if it is intended for the big shops boring numerous holes an hour, Kreg still has them beat by reliable tooling in the form of air clamped and drill powered multiple hole per seconds machines and not something that I would be embarrassed to have in my shop.

Porter-Cable almost always makes good tools but having seen this one in action, it seems almost over engineered. For Pros doing hundreds of pocket holes a day, 5 days a week, it will work very well but for "the rest of us" it seems over kill.
