Hello, my name is Tony and I hail from Nebraska.  I am pretty handy with dimensional lumber doing a 100% remodel of our current residence, deck building, chicken coop building and tree house building.  I decided I would build my daughter a loft bed for her small sized bedroom and came across Ana White's site where she recommended pocket holes.  I bought the Kreg K5 master system, some extra clamps and away I went.  I'm hooked.  After this bed I see lots of other plans on this site I'd love to tackle.  Here is a photo of my completed headboard.  I hope to have the rest of the bed done in the coming weeks.  With work, kids and waiting for oil paint to dry the project is coming along a little slow.  Glad I found this site and am looking forward to seeing what all this place has to offer.

Hello everyone, My name is Toby.  I live in central Illinois.  I recently purchased the K4 master,with hopes to do some projects.  I have build experience with framing.  I live in a Brick bungalow that was built in 1920's.  Hoping to be able to build some projects for the house.

OK lets get the formalities out of the way, Tommy TBones, Chicago, IL novice well I did make a mallet in high school. I've been looking for an item for the kitchen that I can not find so I have to build it myself which is why I decided to become a Kreg owner. I'll post pictures of my first project in a few weeks.

Hi I'm Mike. I live in NC and love to do projects on my own. I don't get to do a lot lately because of my to little girls that I wouldnt change for anything . I joined community to learn how to build new things and improve my skills with my kreg kit .

Thanks

Greetings Kreg Community. My name is Derrick. I"m originally from southern Illinois but now reside in Mayfield, KY. I purchased the K4 master system as well as the rip cut. I am basically a advanced beginner when it comes to woodworking and the millions of projects available out there. I purchased the Kreg items to do small projects and once i get more comfortable using them, i will proceed to larger projects. My wife saw several kitchen cabinet projects on Pinterest and decided that i should be able to build her some in the near future. I have done some minor projects such as repairing my duaghters drawers on her dresser. I will definitely be more active on here once i get time to complete some projects and i will post photos afterwards. God Bless!

Hello, everyone. My name is Chris. I purchased the R3 a couple years ago to help with a build and was instantly hooked. Since then, I've picked up several other Kreg products and am always looking for inspiration for new projects.

Newcomer to Community and to all things Kreg.  Just starting into intermediate woodworking. Looking forward to projects that I feel I can accomplish. Working on a miter saw stand. Some pocket holes used with my modifications to the original Family Handyman plans. Will post photo(s) when done.

Hello all. My name is Chris H. from Texas. Ive been on here for quite some time but have never introduced myself. I've owned Kreg jigs for many years now but have never really done anything noteworthy with them outside of some 2x4 projects. I finally had an opportunity to put them to use recently. I built a crib for our son and it came out quite nice. I'll be building a matching dresser and side table later this month to complete the set.

Hi, My name is JK living in North Carolina.

I had no experience on wood working before.

I decided to start learning as a hobby at the end of last year and got a couple of tools including Kreg Jig.

I'm learning a lot from this community.Thanks for sharing all information you've posted.

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…
