joining angled pieces

[Jay Homeyer]

I want to join two boards at a 45. I've cut both at 22 1/2 so that they will make a 45. These are 3/4" boards. I've looked at the video's that come with the K4 but they don't talk about the depth setting or lenght of screw. Naturally, I can do some trial and error, but I was hoping someone would have a technique worked out already.
Thanks

You should find almost everything you need, here.

Good luck!

I've seen this video but what I can't figure out is how to set the depth. Even though the material is 3/4 inch, you don't actually have that much material to work with because of the angle.

FYI - The images (below the video) on the page I linked discuss compensating for the lost thickness.

This is perfect. Now, can I actually find that document on this site so that I can print it out?
Thank you for your help.

I need the same answer for joining 2x4's on a 45 degree angle. Help

It's not directly on point for this particular discussion, but it relates. This is a link to a neat use of the kreg jig.
