Thanks!  I'm planning to check out Lowe's today but I may look online as well.  Guess I'll save the 1 1/2" screws for my projects with 1x's

Hello DR and welcome to KJOC!

I saw your chat message and yes, you have to set the drill guide and the drill bit to 1 1/2" and use 2 1/2" screws for a good strong joint.

My HD has never carried anything Kreg-wise. I usually got my screws at Lowe's, but those were limited to 50 or 100 count boxes. So I started ordering screws from Amazon in 1000 count boxes for 1 1/4" and 2000 count for 2 1/2". You do save money when buying in bulk and if you planning to build projects using 2x4's then this will be a really good buy. I use the 1 1/4" a lot for 1x projects.

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.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…

Not Pleased With Pocket Hole Construction

Several months ago, I purchased the Kreg K4MS so that I could build the Lego Table as outlined on the companion "buildsomething" web site which exclusively uses pocket hole construction.  I have considerable experience with conventional…
