The most clever tool I’ve ever owned

The most clever tool I’ve ever owned
Without question one of the most useful, convenient, well made, clever and seriously speedy tools I’ve ever owned. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!I bought the Kreg single pocket hole (clamp-on) jig and albeit an extremely useful tool as well, it requires a ton of work to position, clamp then drill (then repeat) when building things that require multiple pocket holes in succession.Holy cow this awesome little guy makes ANY pocket hole drilling almost fun! It’s incredibly easy to use and is so well thought out with little depth guides and such that it’s virtually fool proof.I mounted mine to a work bench and it has made my life so much easier and enjoyable when I need one or many pocket holes.The best thing is that with the depth guide you won’t drill a hole too deep. It’s always to the perfect depth.I held off on this tool for probably a year because I thought the price was a little steep but finally took the plunge and oh my god... so worth it.The only part of the tool that’s a little on the flimbsy side is the shop vac hose port. After it fell off (or unsnapped) a couple of times I realized my shop vac hose would fit into the larger opening where the flimbsy plastic piece attaches. (See photo). With the vac setup this way there is absolutely NO saw dust left behind which is so nice as drilling pocket holes does create quite a bit of saw dust.I would recommend this product all day every day. A must for a woodworking shop.
