Hi 

My name is Phil, I have just become a member, Haven't purchased any Kreg jigs as yet, but I am interested in getting some at a later stage.

At the moment I am interested in a Home made CNC router table 4'x8' out of MDF material, But can not find a good detail plan of one, with the base and bill of material.

If anyone can help me please email me a link or attach to the email.

Best regards

Hello all. My name is Andy and I live in Arizona. I just got started in building things for my wife and around our house. I love the Kreg tool. Best money spent on a tool so far. I am slowly buying the tools I need to keep building. While some things have not turned out so well, I am learning from my mistakes and keep going to make them better.

Hello, my name is Piotr and I live in London. I am a handyman in a factory. I have recently bought a Kreg Jig and two months ago I started making a desk for my daughter's laptop. I have a passion and determination to create things out of wood which makes it very appealing to me as I like it a lot.

Hello all,

My name is Bill and I live in Michigan's thumb area.  I enjoy woodworking and have succesfully  built my own kitchen cabinets.  I have ordered the Kreg K4MS Master system and am eager to build new bed frames for two twin beds as described in the Kreg videos.  I think that building with the Kreg Jig will be fun and make building projects much easier.  I look forward to seeing your projects and showing you mine.  Can;t wait to get started.

[Kenneth Schumacher]

Hello, my name is Kenneth Schumacher and I live in McKinney, TX.  I recently opened a furniture business "Rustic Oar Furniture Company."  Many of the pieces that we offer use a Kreg Jig - not only does this make the piece stronger and more pleasing to the eye, it also requires you to use less wood by the reduction of braces.  I plan on posting pictures of our tables, buffets, coffee tables and benches as we build them.  Please visit us on Facebook - just search "The Rustic Oar Furniture Company."

Hello and welcome Kenneth,

From myself, the KregRep and the other members of the community welcome to the site.

I know I will be eagerly awaiting to see the results of your work.

I will go do a search to check out your work

Regards

Hi My name is Don l live in Peterborough Ontario Canada. I have always had a interested in woodworking and would love to give it a try. I have made a small cabinet to hold my drill press about 4 years ago. I am retired an need to do something because everyday is Saturday. I've never tried the Kreg system so l am looking foward to giving it a shot. I am not sure what system to buy so any help would be great.

Hi Don,

Welcome aboard.

Glad to hear you're interested in pursuing ''wood working'' tasks.

There's no time, like the present, to get going.

The Kreg pocket hole joinery system is terrific---it sure makes it simpler, easier and faster, for several types of wood joints.  

Peruse the internet, do a ''google'' search, and you'll find lots of valuable info, and plans for projects, and the like, as well as some books on ''pocket hole joinery''.

Personally, I'd suggest starting out obtaining the K4 Master system.  It contains all the necessary products to get you going.   Additional items can be procured, as needs arise.

If you should have any questions, or need additional info, please do not hesitate to visit the forums.

Lots of helpful persons, with valuable information.

There's a ''search'' field in the upper right hand corner of this page, enter a desirable word or phrase, press ''search'' and sit back, and watch your screen fill-up.
