how to kreg jig dave stanton woodworking screw diy k4
Just picked it up on clearance at hd. Now I need to build a workshop in my living room.
I've owned this jig for a couple of months and never knew the allen key had a slot on the base to store it. I've been keeping it and the accessories in the box it came in. You learn something every day. Thank you.
My pleasure!
Hi Dave I have had a Kreg jig for a long time now and I love using it. I would not call myself an expert in woodwork but even I started using the jig and had no problem understanding how it worked. If anyone needs an explanation of who to use the jig, I would be too worried to let them near tools of any kind.Having said that your video is very simple to follow as it always is so keep up the good work and don't forget to give Barry a dog biscuit now and again
Thank you for this! I bought this tool over a year ago and never even took it out of the Box after seeing this video I'm going to use it all the time.
Glad I could help
Great video I've been using this pocket jig since 1993. Can't count how many projects I've done over this time. Enjoy !
Nice work!
Thank you for this video. I have been wanting this for several years and now have the confidence to go get one and use it.
You are so welcome!
This guy explains things so well; is fun to listen to and helps build confidence in his viewers. Just discovered him and subscribed instantly. Great channel! Thanks!
I appreciate that!
Kreg Jigs! Better than sliced bread!!!!! Thanks for the demonstrations!
Dave, fantastic video could not have been any better! Easy to understand , described in a logical step by step "guy" way ...best Kreg video on youtube !! Thank you for saving me time and energy!!
Great video! Thanks for a great reference to com back to. I started building my cabinets and at this point I’m four cabs built( two tops-two bottom) and once you get the knack for the Kreg jig it is a dream to work with!
Glad it was helpful!
G'day Dave,
I'm just about to buy my first Kreg jig and have found this video invaluable.
Thanks for posting!
Good to hear James! Every now and then I create a video that people find useful. Let me know how it goes for you.
This is the absolute best video for using the KJ4. Even better than Kreg's. Thank you!
Thanks Toni!!
What a great easy to understand detailed video on how to use the K4 Kreg Jig - thankyou Dave
My pleasure Raj Majithia !
Awesome! My 2 year old loves to play Cornhole so I decided to try and make him the boards myself! I wanted to figure out exactly how to use a pocket hole jig before I went ahead and bought one. This video was perfect! Thanks 😊
My pleasure marissa chavez !
Thanks David, just opened the box, read owners manual, ok but your video was great help moving forward with my project of garage shelving. Cheers
Glad it helped
Great walkthrough. I've had a couple of differnt brands and models of jig on my list while trying to make a decision and the deminstration here excellently highlighted several features that make the extra few dollars seem like an investment in ease of use. I ended up ordering the K4. Finally getting a little more serious about building up a workshop and this is going to be super handy building a few things to get me started like a vertical panel cutting station/cart and a few cabinets in castors. I'm looking forward to checking out some more of the channel i the future. Really nice clean space you have there, great to see.
Thanks Mr Mukura! The K4 is a nice jig.
Thanks so much for the info on the KREG SYSTEM. Just purchased one , and feeling it out this weekend . Guess Ill retire my biscuit joiner now . !
My pleasure B.C.Junction Embroidery,NJ !
Great demo video Dave. Also, you can use any dowel (correct size of course) to fill the holes. Glue in a short section of it and then use your pull saw to trim it close and then sand smooth. This way you can use any wood species that you can get or make dowelling for (think long plug cutter). Cheers.
Indeed you can!
Excellent video ,as you explained It i did it step-by-step and along with your video and I had success been in the carpentry field for quite a long time but I've never done a pocket hole believe it or not always been Framing and Roofing and Siding that type of thing. My name is Ray and I'm glad I found you, your videos are extremely informative
Thanks for explaining this jig so well and all the options available. Subscribed instantly.
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks so much for saving me the agony of reading the manual:) nicely done.
Glad to help!
Thank you so much for such informative video! I just got my set yesterday and I'll be trying it out today for the very first time. I'm a very new beginner to woodworking so I'm learning as I go. I'm so excited to try my jig today!! 😁😁😁
Thanks Martha! Send me some photos of what you get up to.
jesus! that's the nicest shop I've ever seen
Thanks for the compliment John Bishara!
Thanks for the easiest how use use video I have seen. Simple.
Thanks Chris!
Kreg makes great products, I own many of them and use them in my wood projects, make cabinet building very easy!
From personal experience, Kreg's customer service is excellent.
Yes they stand by their products.
Loved the video, thank you for explaining this. I know it will come in very handy since I had a friend of mine give me a k4 the other day and I am excited to get to use it :).
Thankyou Maceofblades!
Thanks Dave for providing an excellent step by step video on how to use the K4 jig. Unfortunately I didn't get the dust collection attachment with my jig but I did find one on Thingiverse.
Thankyou Anthony McNair!
Thanks for the video Dave. About to re-model my pantry and my Kreg K4 will be getting a good workout on the cabinets.
Hope it all goes well for you Rohan!
Super newbie here. But with your help, I got it. Thanks dude
My pleasure Johnathan Schultz !
Thank you so much for the video. Very detailed. I really needed that since I picked up my kit a week ago and started looking for videos that can explain it in great detail on hire to use it. I also like the different dimensions you've covered. It lets me know that I can do more then a 90 degree angle with the wood using the pocket hole. Again, Thanks.
My pleasure La Toya Heard !
Thanks for the great instructions, ready to build my wife's desk.
Any time!
Nice demonstration David. Thank you.
Thanks Robert!
Thanks! I got a k4 off Facebook marketplace for cheap, I have other tools, but wanted to try it on occasion, your demo was great!
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for this. I've used my K3 on a couple of projects and they've worked out great, but I've got a project coming up with at least 350 holes to build some frames - lots of identical holes. Looks like the K4 and its clamp is going to save me a load of time (and its wider hole options). And I'd like to sneak a plug cutter in - just because I want to play with it.
Glad I could help!
Great video, great audio, thanks for the lapel mic, perfect! Love ur voice!
Thanks Stephen, glad you enjoyed it.
Lol, Dave said "a hole" ... Sorry, couldn't help myself...
Well done Dave, another great, informative video! I picked up another brand pocket hole jig called Massca. I really like the aluminum construction of it. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it
nice tutorial, love to see you with the cam on yours headphones :) Thanks for sharing David
Thanks Daniel!
had my K4 setting 4-5 yrs under the bench, decided it was time to get schooled. Lol
Excellent clear instructions! Very easy to understand. Thank you!
You are welcome!
It is amazing how simple this system is and you can only but this on TV shop here in Australia. This system has been uses for many years now in the USA. I can get this on ebay but why can't we find this in Bunnings yet. It would be good to be able to go to a store to purchase these and the screws as needed rather than rely on TV or ebay for delivery.
Great video thank you.
Hi Tony. The system you are referring to is known as joiner jig and the product is not up to standard. The drill guides are not hardened steel and the clamp is more like a silicone gun. You can walk into any carbatec store in Australia and buy Kreg stuff, even on their website.
Thanks I shall keep an eye out.
absolutely great video
Thanks for the compliment!
You are amazing!well informed.i enjoyed watching your instructions.thank you.jim UK
Glad you enjoyed it
fantastic tip Dave!
Thanks Spicy!
I don't know if you know this but Kreg linked to this vid on their facebook page. Good one Dave always love your clear and informative vids.
Well there you go! Thanks for letting me know John!
Wonder about full 2x4” dimension lumber. Wasn’t milled to 1.5” x 3.5” probably from EU. Old scrap project and materials so no choice while I’m working in the sandbox. Ahhh, got to the part where you mention thicker wood. I’ll check Amazon to see if they have this. Thanks.
Great video Dave. Explains the K4 jig better than I have previously seen. Where did you get that screw selector wheel. I haven't seen that before.
Also, Kreg has released the plug cutting jig and drill bit, but you can only buy them direct from Kreg in the US at this stage - and the freight they quoted me is completely ridiculous. Carbatec does not carry them, and is not planning to at any time in the foreseeable future. I recently purchased a Haron plug cutting drill bit from Bunnings, and am looking at making my own jig to go with this to be able to make my own plugs in the same timber as the job I'm working on.
Hi BM. Thanks for the compliment!
I work as a part timer at carbatec and I know for a fact that they are getting the plug cutters. Don't know who you spoke to but may not have been informed. We can expect them around June. I purchased the screw selector wheel at Carbatec as well.
great review owned a k4 jig for 3 yrs now and never knew i could use it with angled cuts or thought to ..lol the pluggs are great too
When ever there is a need there is a way. Thanks for commenting Joe!
***** ALWAYS!! & that is very true sir! Very true🍻
Wonderful help. I noticed you shelfs in the back ground. Did you make them. I need to make some to hold all my NEW Festools.
Thanks Thomas Bridges! Yes, I built everything in the work shop, including the building.
thanks Dave for that explanation easy to follow. Subbed to your channel
Awesome, thank you!
G- day mate Awesome tutorial, And great wood shop
Glad you enjoyed it
David..You are the best in training..... Thanks.
I appreciate that!
Great Tutorial. Great Clean Shop.
Thanks Garviel, glad you enjoyed it! I also have a 1 hour livestream every week if you are interested. ruclips.net/video/KWE3YFrFPgw/видео.html
Dave, you should check out the Porter-Cable pocket hole jig. It's amazing. No adjustments!
Looks great but twice the price of my K4. Think I will stick with the Kreg.
20 seconds in...he said "A hole"..🤣🤣🤣
Not long after "screw it"
Wonder if this gets demonetized.
Joking guys great video!
They review and check context. It's fine.
I noticed that also !!! Funny stuff.
Thanks for the video David, I bought a k4 last November and I haven't opened it yet cos I didn't know how to use it. How do I connect a 45deg 2 x 4 to a 90deg stud on a wall?
Hi Rebop Kwaku Bah! Through the edge.
Hi Dave ... I am new to wood working great video! Do you need a pilot hole for the receiving end timber? many thanks Ethan, Perth
No pilot hole required.
Just out of interest what drill were u using? It looked like a Festool branded drill, but not one I recognised?
Hi Mark. It is a Protool. Festools other brand name. Discontinued about 18 months ago. The festool system is interchangeable with Protool pretty much, as far as the drills are concerned.
I didn't know that! Thanks for the video.
Great review Dave. Tossing up between the K4 or the new K5. Have been offered a deal on the K5. I want to build wardrobes so several tall and wide pieces. IYHO would the K5 be the better bet? Thanks.
Thanks Two Rivers Workshop! Yes to the K5, easier to work on larger pieces.
Do you also glue the joint? I have bought one - a K5 set.... Still waiting for it to arrive, but am very happy to have watched this video, so when I get it, it I will look like a know what I'm doing. ;)
No need to glue but if you did, the joint would have the extra strength. I use glue if I am making a seat or table top. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for making this video.
My pleasure!
I've never done any woodworking before but I've been watching a few videos now and am a bit inspired to take on a little task of building myself a storage cupboard for all my electronics bits and pieces. Looking at this jig because it seems like it could be a quick way of getting it done. I was just planning on making 4 sides, plus a base from 18mm x 119 board joined with pocket holes and then attaching them to a pocket holed frame. Then making a top for it from 44mmx94mm boards joined with pocket holes. I basically have a cheap mitre saw, a drill and some sandpaper. Does this sound feasible to you? Is PSE(?) wood accurate enough for this sort of thing? I don't have a planer or thicknessery thing. Oh and I have almost zero working space too. Nothing like a challenge, eh? Any words of wisdom appreciated.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Particle board isn't too expensive so have a go and enjoy yourself, learn from your mistakes. Use some glue on the joints as well and don't over tighten the screws. Note, they must be washer head screws, not countersunk. I find kreg's are very reliable.
Thanks, will give it a go :D
Excellent explanation. Thank you Sir :)
Keep watching!
I learned two things, where to put allen wrench, and how chart works... cool
Hi Dave, great video thanks. I've just bought the K4 mainly to use with wood, but occasionally I will be building cabinets out of Melamine faced Particle/chip board. Will pocket hole joinery be Ok for that
I do it all the time. Check out my videos on how to make drawers.
@@DavidStanton Hi Dave, thanks for the quick reply.. Great video again, but will the system be Ok for kitchen cabinets in Melamine faced chip board. I also watched your video on the Festool 500 dimino conectors. that seems a better solution, but more expensive. I have the festool Dimino 500, but I have not tried the conectors yet.
Keep the great videos coming
Thanks Dave, I bought one of these today and I'm looking forward to my first project, I want to build a workbench of a similar size to the one in this video and I'm interested to know how you chose the locations for the t-track that you have - thanks in advance.
I have to think about that one for a bit. I might do a 5 minute segment on my live show this weekend if you are interested.
Sounds great, I've looked at so many benches and I'm a little lost on where to start, I don't have space for a very large bench at this stage and don't really need to 'bolt' anything to it... I do have two sections of t-track I bought and I'm thinking something like you have is a good layout for a smaller benchtop :-)
very complete and detailed. well done.
Glad you liked it!
What brand and model is the small drill you use to install the screws? It looks very handy but powerful.
Hi Garrett Alarm Depot! It is a protool.
@@DavidStanton thank you for replying back to me.
If I'm connecting a 2x4 to a 3/4" piece of plywood do I set my jig and drill bit to 1 1/2"? Plus I would use a 1 1/4" screw right?
It is not recommended to do that joint. But, if you were to screw the 3/4 " to the 2 x 4 then you would set the jigto 3/4" and the screw would be an 1 1/2". I hope this helps.
Thanks no problems 😁 Love your vids 👍Wish we had ancient history here in the 🇺🇸 but I do hunt in the woods near my home it’s a park and there is some old US history in the area revolutionary war era items there but the terrain is similar to where you hunt ⛏ I love the slight of hand 🤗Lol!
Did you predrill the piece of wood the screws go into the second board?
Hi scott singer! No.
great stuff thank you so much and luv the channel
Glad you enjoy it!
I see you've painted the jig to highlight the measurements that's exactly like I did. I don't now why they don't do that when they make them at the factory
My jig is an old one. They do paint the numbers now Aaron. Thanks for the comment!
Excellent video sir! Subscribed
Thank you Aaron Talley!
Thanks for the video! Curious for the end grain to face grain join if you pre-drill holes in the second piece of wood (the one not getting the pocket holes) or if you just screw straight into the wood. Thanks!
Only drill the timber that is being connected, not the receiver.
@@DavidStanton thanks! I tried that and got a gap between the pieces since the bit didn't go in cleanly, but I'll try again :)
Good job on video editing.
Thanks for the compliment Edward Padilla!
The squareness of the joint depends solely on the squareness of the cut on the peace that buts into the side of the other piece. Has noting do do with the kreg jig. Just though I'd point that out to save any confusion.
Thanks Richard, I did say that in the video just after I put the square on the joint.
Hey Dave just been been to the Brisbane timber working with wood bought the greg k5 at carbatec is ther anything I can do for you with regards to any affiliate program just let me know cheers .ps it was great.
Great that you had a good time at the show and also that you picked up a Kreg jig. I am very happy with mine. I have affiliate links listed in the description boxes of most of my videos. Just click the "show more" button and they will reveal themselves. Thanks for thinking about me!!
How is that clamp fixed in your workbench? I work mostly by myself and I always struggle with keeping pieces straight while putting them together. I’m always looking for a way to hold them, could you tell me how to do that with a clamp where it holds it level.
Hi Lisa Sluder! look here. ruclips.net/video/5lpPb-ttP9M/видео.html
Hi David, would you use a pocket hole on chipboard
Same as any softwood, must use the course screws but not the micro screws...their head is too small.
***** cheers
Nice demos! Is that really your every day workshop? It's way too clean!
Yes, thanks
Parabéns pelo seu trabalho, quanta habilidade e carinho no que faz, esses dispositivos da Kreg são excelentes, pena que aqui são MUITO caros, não que o produto não valha, mas acho injusto o valor aqui!
Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Obrigado pelas amáveis palavras. Espero que você esteja seguro no Brasil.
Thanks for the help, Dave
My pleasure Richard Foltz !
the jig with the clamp handle on the side that you drill is much better for doing pocket holes in panels. you dont need to find a way to reach around to the back everytime.
Thank you for the video David 😁👍
Have you ever tried using non button head screws to drive them in to the pocket holes?
with success?
No success. Countersink wood screws split the timber.
The Kreg system uses their own sized screws, that work with the dial you show. Do you only ever use their screws, or have you dared use other sizes with success as well?
Other *brands
I use the kreg screws because they work for me, never failed and never snapped.
Hi Dave, have you produced a video on how to create the table you’re using in this video? Thank you b
No, not yet.
Ok thank you. I did look but couldn’t see anything 👍
Nicely done mate
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice video David. Where did you purchase the screw length chart? I would like to purchase one as well.
Hi Bud. Purchased from Carbatec in Australia. Thanks for the compliment!
Thanks for the info. David.
What kind of fixed clamp is that you are using on the work table?
It is a Kreg bench clamp. Thanks for watching!
That bench clamp is pretty slick.
great video dave,,going to get me one tomorrow,,,i like your drill driver,,,what kind is it
Hi Jeff, thanks for watching! I have a few but I think you would be referring to the Protool drill, the larger of the 2 units in the video. Maybe it was the little Festool CXS driver? Those 2 drills are my "go to" units!
Oh man! I need one of those round disks showing the best size screw to use. Where do I get that?
Which country do you live in?
USA
Online here. amzn.to/2xlSsAH
.
G'day, Would it be possible to make a picture frame with mitres? Say out of 90 x 20 mm timber. Basically asking if you could use the jig on a 45 degree mitre.
Sure can.
David I was just wondering what kind of camera you used on your headphones?
Hi GooGooProof! Sony action cam.
Wood filler is a good choice if you're out of plugs.
Question, I’m trying to make a box using 1x4 knotted pine which is 3/4 inch. I set my jig and file bit and made my holes however I used 3/4 Kreg screw but it dosnt go in enough and a 1 1/4 is too long do I need a 1” screw? Thank you
Hi Kitchguy! I use 1 1/4" screws for 3/4 finish wood. It is either your jig guide block is not set at 3/4" thick and or your depth collar around the drill is not in the right position.
@@DavidStanton Thank you, when setting the bit collar for 3/4 does the tip of the bit need to be at the 3/4 mark or just at the bottom of the tip?
Hi Kitchguy! Watch my show on the weekend and I will explain it better for you.
@@DavidStanton will do thanks 🙏
Thanks Dave 👍
Very welcome
Kan man købe denne i Danmark ???
How would you clamp a 6 foot length - Can you show us please ? Thanks
I might try to do that on the live show this weekend?
Can some experienced wood workers give me some advice on what they tools to start with. Other than saws, drills and drivers. What are some must haves? I am going to make work benches, interior barn doors. Function over form.
My short list is for hand tools. Saw stools to support your work at a comfortable level while you are making the bench. A good combination square, marking knife, No. 5 hand plane, block plane, 1/2" and 1" chisel, crosscut saw, sanding block, triton super jaws.
David Stanton thanks
What did you use to drive the screws in?
Hi Jorge LeRoy! The robertson 2 driver.
