Pocket holes, ahh, pocket holes… Oh how you make things so easy.
As you’ve probably noticed pocket holes can be found in the majority of my plans. This is because it is a quick, easy and strong method of joinery to butt two pieces of wood together. To accomplish this you’ll need a pocket hole jig from Kreg Tool Company otherwise none as the Kreg Jig. Below, I’ve put together a table to compare the different options offered by Kreg. Enjoy!
