Free Hand Guard (dust collection)
Hi. I'm wondering if anyone has used the Woodpecker Free Hand Guard for dust collection on their bench top router table during pattern routing. How effective is it? It's adaptable to any router table. Continue

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…

HI JOE , how are you making out with your HF Jig , hope it is working for you , JIM !!
HI Joe , welcome to the community , I noticed on your profile that you do not have a KREG Jig, the K4 or K5 are both good depends on what you want to build !! I have the K4 master set and it work,s good for me , as I have drilled many pocket holes in the last few years and have never drill a pilot hoe in either board !! Make sure when you get your jig you also get a face clamp and a 90 degree clamp and you should not have any problem,s , clamping is very important to get a good tight joint , I also have a good selection of bar and pipe clamps that will help !! Have a good day and happy wood working , JIM !!
