That is correct, the jig setting is for the piece you making the pockets holes in. The idea is to get the screw to come through the center of the edge of the wood, which is the strongest point. At first is was easy to understand when using two pieces of wood that were the same dimensions. However, when it came to using 2 different dimensions then it got a little confusing. I am now using the charts AND sample pieces whenever there is any doubt on which screw size to use.
Now it sounds like if the pieces are edge joined ,how about face to face like say 3/4 to face of 1/2 inch,like drawer cases.I have not tried but it seems to me it will protrude out the back side. Tell me I'm wrong b4 I go out and run a test on it
Thanks for the chart. Settings worked right the first time I used it. I joined 3/4" to 1/2" using the 5/8" setting and 1" screws with no break-out and enough bite to hold a tight joint.

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…

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…
