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

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.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
