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.

I currently work as a manager in state government.  I am a weekend warrior, doing everything from sistering floor joists to building dresser tops.  When your poor, but have the right power tools you can't be too bad off.
I live in Alberta and I am running a fertilizer production plan

Hi, I'm Gustav from Pretoria, South Africa.  During the day I'm a junior C# developer.  At night, when I enter my cave (aka the garage) I'm a junior woodworker.

Couldn't find a bricks and glass retailer here in South Africa to purchase my Kreg, so had to order it online from a website.  Currently still waiting for my Kreg Jig Jr to be delivered... and can hardly wait.

Hi just a retired casino security shift manager and am looking forward to using the Kreg system.

Hi I'm Edward.

My daytime job is a Production System Snalyst/ developer.

Writing software from design to implementation.

Other hobbies include metalworking, photography and reading.

Checked out their website.  Frustratingly (for me in any case) - they don't list prices.

I work in a police department evidence room.  My son and I recently completed a project for the department.  A wood shelf unit and workbench for patrol vehicle supplies and an area for repairs or adjustments.  I used the 3/4 plywood and my Kreg Jig for most joints.  Working with my son was the best part.
