my Kreg Jig Bit Broke! :( What can I do? Is there a repair or replacement? I've had it 7 months, and was drilling into a 1x4 pine ?

I bought a spare bit at Lowes a year ago, just in case

[Brad Nielsen]

Lee Valley carries them in stock!

 

http://www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=46272&cat=1,180,42...

They list them here for $16.50

(Keep the adjusting collar off the old one as a spare or to use on other bits.)

Considering the cost new of Kreg Products, They should be able to cover a replacement under a materials and workmanship part of any warranty they have without going under.

I had a problem with the bit in my Kreg kit at the initial purchase and Kreg replaced the drill bit free of charge.

What Lowes do you shop at??? For 7.00  my lowes are 15.97

My bit rolled of my workbench and shattered like a piece of glass...I sent it to Kreg and they replaced it for me..
I also found that they sell these bits at Lowe's

Home Depot has it.

you can get a new bit at Lowe's or Home Depot in Tool world in same area where pocket Jig Kits are displayed and

General also makes a bit that is identical in design that works with the Kreg jig
