| Retired Moderator Supreme Forum King  | Joe, are you going to use the Kreg to do the doors or the cabinet carcass? If you are building doors and using a router rail and stile bit then I would not use the kreg on that, just glue them up as once done they are ready to glue. The Kreg is fantastic for cabinet building! Corey

| Forum Contributer Supreme Forum King  | Hi Joe I have just about all of the Sommerfeld sets and the cabinet bit is one of the best I have. You can use the kreg jig on the face frame and the case work but not on the doors  I also have the kreg setup and it works great but I have the older one without the vac. pickup. You can make a small part for the kreg jig that will lift it up by a 1/4" or so then you can use the T & G set the same way Marc shows you how on the video... It's just a spacer under the upright part so it puts the screw a bit higher on the stock. Bj

| Marine Engineer Forum King  | I've got the sommerfield pocket hole jig, it's basically the same as the new kreg jig. The drill bit and the screws are interchangeable between the 2. I got the 'starter kit', it does just fine for my needs- I mean who really needs a plastic storage case.... etc.

| Registered User Forum Fanatic | Just plan on using it on carcas and face frames...NOT on the doors. You guys are the best lookin out for me like that I'll order them up today. BTW...Wife got me a happy no reason gift yesterday. My incra will be here today and a few days ago she was surfing and saw what it can do as far as dovetails. Anyway, she gets home from work yesterday with a CMT 8 bit box set dovetail bits for the incra. Do you think thats a hint!! Too Funny Joe |
