Hello, my name is Claudio and live near Toronto, Canada. I consider myself a beginner but look forward to learning from this forum. I am a Electrician and enjoy building things.....anything and everything. I believe that if you put your mind to it you can pretty much do anything, provided you have the right tools. 

Here are is a fun project I did with old hockey sticks.

Hello,

My name is Gideon. I live in the Northern Cape, South Africa. I am in the process of setting up my first dedicated woodwork shop. My idea is to specialize in bookshelves. I've seen the Kreg Jig a year or so ago and bought the Kreg 3. Was so impressed that I acquired the Kreg Jig, push  stick, angle clamp and drawer installation helpers.  When my shop is fully functional, hopefully in three months, I'll put all of the tools into production

HI everyone, my name is Verlan and I live in central IA and have been a DIYer and woodworker for many years ( I own my own manufacturing company and cut my teeth on metal years ago.)  I've done big jobs from a major remodel/addition to my house, to flipping houses with my son, to woodworking projects like furniture and cabinetry.  My latest project involves turning a 28 x 28 garage into a woodworking shop.  I've got a nice Steel City 3 HP granite top table saw, along with a Grizzly 15"planer, Grizzly 8" jointer, Grizzly 14" bandsaw, Bosch 12"axial miter saw, Shop Fox oscillating spindle sander and Delta dust collection.  I have a lot of work to do to finish the project, but may post some pics later.  Plus I think I have a complete line of Kreg jigs and clamps from the pocket hole jig, shelf pin jig, crown molding jig, drawer install jigs.  Great stuff

Greetings, Everyone. My name is John and I enjoy finding new projects for my Kreg tool.  For my next project I am interested in different DVD & CD storage solutions.  I look forward to learning from you all and being an active member of the Community.

Hi there.  My name is Allan and I live New Jersey.  I started woodworking as a hobby back in 2005 when I got myself a 12-tool Ryobi combo on sale at HD.  With that, I filled my basement with simple storage shelves, just enough to get stuff from being kept on the concrete floor.  Since then I've had other tools in my arsenal.  But my KregJig K4 Master made building projects much simpler and faster, compatible with my minimalist philosophy.  I look forward to learning from the community and sharing my completed projects.

Hello!  I have not done wood working since my High School wood shop days.  But thanks to a recent retirement I am eager to get back into it again.  I am the proud owner of the the K4 Master System, Kreg HD jig, and Kreg self tapping pocket screw kit purchased last week.   So I will be buying more tools as I figure out what is a good basic home wood shop.  My first Kreg project will be the work bench!!

Greetings to all.

I'm Adrian and I live in Stellenbosch in South Africa. I retired about two years ago and keep busy by working on my vintage motorcycles and giving something back to the local aviation community. I'm a total woodworking novice and my first project was a TV cabinet made out of MDF (or SupaWood as it's called here). Received my first Kreg items yesterday - Rip Cut and a Square Cut jigs. Also have a K3 and Face Clamp on order. I'm looking forward to being able to make more professional looking pieces of furniture.

Regards.

Welcome Adrain

Hope you enjoy the site and look forward to seeing a project soon.

Regards Robert.

My name is Mark Shipley. I'm from Small Town USA ,Illinois and have made my home in Springfield,Mo. I started working with wood in High School. I did the simple things , like the Jewelry box, Paper towel holder, Roll Top Bread Box, And a Dual Channel Light Organ Box with a Prismatic light cover.

I purchased the Kreg K2000 Pocket Hole Jig Kit in 2005. I used it as a toy to build a practice foot stool and end table out of scrap lumber. It Gave me the confidence to attempt to build a coffee table for our living room. It was our center piece for around 6 years.

 

Hello I got my Kreg tool to do some book shelf building, and liked it well enough to want to expand my use and skill with it.

I am glad I found the community, and hope I can add the the growth, and spirit here.

Product Reviews

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…

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…
