Hi, my name is Glenn, I am from Ottawa ON Canada.

I just picked up a K4 Master system this morning.  I am planning on building a home entertainment cabinet.

Looking forward to getting started!

[Angie Overton]

Hello! My name is Angie. I live in Southern Indiana and I still consider myself a beginning woodworker. I got started in the summer of 2012. Having a blast. Love my Kreg tools. I only have a few so far. But love them. I had a K4 master system. Now I have the K5, an Automax clamp, feather board (which recently started using and love) and the Square Cut. Love them all!

Hey there, Buddha!  You will have to let me know if you are going to do a Kreg demo at your Big Box.   I usually frequent the "orange" box, by I-90 Exit 8 (DeFreestville), as that is very close to the house, or the "blue" box behind Northway Mall, as that's close to my office.   That said, I'm pretty familiar with ALL of the blue and orange locations throughout the greater Smalbany area….

[Don McAllister]

Hello all !  I am excited to find this forum,  live in south west Iowa, run a portable sanitation business(porta-pottys).  Have a small Sawmill and try to use only dead, diseased or trees removed for safety.  Working on building my hobby into a retirement income/activity. My wood shop is an old construction office trailer, 14x50, so kinda cramped but paid for, warm and private. 

[Ken Darga]

Don,

Those old trailers are awesome for a workshop.

[Loren Ozanne]

Hello, My name is Loren Ozanne and I live in East Tennessee. I love woodworking and consider myself upper intermediate.  Worked in commercial and residential construction for several years and am a huge and long-time fan of Kreg.  In a world of cheaply-made, imported tools, Kreg's reputation for quality stands the test of time and thousands of woodworkers and DIYers.  My next Kreg, Wish-list tool is the Rip Cut Guide, and the Deluxe master pocket-hole system. I have had an older version for years - and it works like brand new.   I have also heard that Kreg's customer service is legendary, and am waiting to see if the customer service is as good as I've heard, and as good as the general quality.  I will contact them and see if they will replace the fence for the benchtop router. I must have got a lemon -- Not sure.  I will be sure to comment and update my rating of the benchtop router table when i hear back from them.  

Cheers, 

Loren
