OMG! First, I love you. You explain things so well. Second, you have so many great tips to eliminate all of the mistakes I make! I think I’m pretty clever. I was an architect and can figure out how to build things, but for some stupid reason, I never thought about the guide from scrap. I just measured and marked. And of course had something a bit wonky. And I never knew how pocket holes were made! All is brilliant. I will be looking to you first, if I need to build/fix something!

So succinct and accessible! Thank-you!

[@juiceguentzler]

I’m going to get nothing done today because I am going to get lost watching all of your videos!

Awesome detailed directions! They turned out so good! I got a kreg jig for my birthday but I’ve been scared to try it. Lol. I’m saving this video. Thank you.

[@TheNiftyNester]

Thank you so much! That's awesome. New tools are the best gifts ever. Pocket holes are the easiest way to join wood, so that's a great tool to get started building with. I hope you have fun with it and good luck!

Hi If I don’t really care about the screws can I make this without the pocket holes?
