Kreg Owners' Community

Where is everyone buying the screws for your Kreg joints? Looks like online may be the easiest, I couldn't find them at home depot today and was wondering if any box stores carry them in stock.

Sorry, Hello from Maryland everyone! New user here, I'd say complete amateur at best..................okay maybe not even that. Looking forward to using this great tool!!!
Home Depot and Lowe's should carry some of the basic sets. If you're looking for more, you'd probably have to head to a Woodcraft/Rockler or similar store. If I was to buy, I'd probably head to Amazon or another online store. They usually have large selections.
Thanks Derek, you know the Home Depot here by my work is one of the most unorganized home improvement stores in the area. I'll check the one on my way home to see if they can point me in the right direction. If not, Amazon it is. That's where I picked up my jig.
I get them at Lowe's near my house - they stock about all the sizes that Kreg offers.
Went to Lowes and they had a few in stock. Only had the 2 1/2 in the weather guard type but they will work. Attempting my first project (the workbench) in the coming weeks. Wish me luck.
Lowe's is where I buy the screws. They are less than the woodworking store here. Home Depot in my area doesn't carry any Kreg products.
I was able to find screws and clamps at Lowe's here in Newnan, Ga. I was also able to find large quantities from www.homedepot.com

Not sure where you live in MD but in North Anne Arundel county or Annapolis is Johnson Lumber Co. this where I buy all of my Kreg products.

Lowe's only had a limited selection. I just finished the work bench as my first project, it came out nice. I need to paint it. How did your's come out?

Your bench looks great Nakia! I'm actually still working on mine. I've just been doing a little here and there. I've got both sides put together and just need to connect them. Thinking about paint colors now, I think I'm leaning toward the craftsman motif in the garage.
I'm new to Kreg products and have been looking into this topic. It seems Amazon.com has the best selection and competative prices - just about every size, variety, and quantities from 50-5000 counts. Plus if you already use Amazon and are a Prime member, you get free two-day shipping. I just ordered a box of 1000 1.25" course screws for $16.99. The price beat the next lowest seller by $4 ($12 if you include shipping.) Others are selling the same thing for up to $30 (plus $9 shipping). This is where I'll buy my screws from now on.
I'm in maryland, too. I get most of mine on Amazon, although I have bought some at Lowes. A 1,000 ct box sounds like a lot until you start working on a project. I went through a lot of 100 packs before I wised up and started buying them in bulk.

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…

Not Pleased With Pocket Hole Construction

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…
