Re: Kreg jig

I only was able to try it out a while ago, it's quite simple to use. Here i tested it out on scrap.

And yet...no matter how simple an operation may be..if you don't concentrate on what your doing, you end up doing something stupid..

i want to cry..hahaha:mad:

Re: Kreg jig

The Kreg jig is one very very good woodworking tool. What I like best about it is that it eliminates the need for glue to cure or dry. There are 3 or 4 Videos from Kreg and these are available in the net.

Re: Kreg jig

Funny thing is i just finished watching the dvd that came with it..masyado ata ako na excite..:mad:

At least the damage was superficial(no matter how bad it seems). I did not drill all the way through so the body is still ridgid.. i still can't forgive myself though..:(

Re: Kreg jig

You can probably clean the holes a bit and the epoxy it.

Re: Kreg jig

Jay,

Does Vise Grip have a similar clamp like those of kreg? The ones with disks instead of jaws for aligning the two pieces to be joined.

Re: Kreg jig

If you don't need very strong clamping pressure I suggest you get the auto adjusting Lockjaw Pliers with swivel pad. Then find a round plate and epoxy it to the top jaw. What you have now is better than the Kreg Clamp.
