Kreg Owners' Community

Just thought I would start a discussion on woodworkers real jobs. It would be fun to no if there are lots of professional people using Kreg Jig along with people  like myself a retired  construction worker.

We build the entire 737 fuselage here and ship it by railcar to Renton for final assembly. If the tanker goes we expect to build part of it as well.

Your job sounds like what you do is keeping planes in air.Boeing is hiring like crazy out here in Seattle area and if they get tanker it will be more and more on payroll.

I am a retired CFO that never had the time for much of a hobby.  But now that I'm retired I should have the time.  I do but have two homes, one in Florida and the other in RI and can't have two woodshops.  But this problem I can handle.

I've been a software engineer for 30 years.  I manage the software engineering department for a large cabinet manufacturer.  We have over 200 workstations on our network and many CNC machines and two robotic systems on the shop floor.  Keeps me very busy!

Fabulous and i cant even figure out sketch-up

Working in accounting and being female and a KregJig owner don't seem to be such  odd combinations when reading the replies to your query. We bought an old house (1940) in TN and have many projects to get it ready for our retirement in 2012. The kitchen cupboards are the original built-in and are all slightly different so making sliding shelves will be an adventure. I'm looking forward to some fun projects and learning from all of you!
Very impressed with your craftsmanship, I love the fence design very much Something like that would keep my chickens out of our flower beds hint hint

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.
