1/2, 3/4, 1-1/2 Presets....and anything in between? I'm planning on buying this for a project working with a product that is 1-1/16". Good tutorial, thank you.
If your jig is going to be fixed make sure to clear the dust of the previous board when drilling multiple boards, accumulated dust can displace the board by roughly 1/16 of an inch and in some projects that could be problematic. A dust port would've made this the absolute perfect jig for most cases. Thanks for the review!!
I cannot wait for the 720PRO to come to Australia but even this 520 looks like it is a major step up from the K5 Master System. Thanks for the awesome review Anika.
Thanks for the video. I wonder what happens if the thickness of the wood doesn’t match with the preset width of the tool. Can you drill holes anyway? Thanks
Great video thanks!.. I will start binge watching you videos on pocket hole jigs. I’m the low key DIYer, meaning when my with gives me projects.. I mean “when she inspires me to create”..lol. My question for time reasons... what model would you recommend for my use that is cost effective?
Thank you! I would definitely recommend this one because it’s a great jig with all the features you want at a great price point. If you want to upgrade it at a later date, you can buy the docking station.
Thanks for the review...is there anyway to use this for 1" material? I see the presets for ½, ¾, &1½ but nothing for 1". I want to buy this thing but if i cant get all the sizes it doesnt make sense to buy...please let me know...have a good one
Very good Anika, excellent explanation, I already subscribed to your channel, thank you from Brazil. Muito bom Anika, excelente explicação, já me inscrevi no seu canal, obrigado do Brasil.
You didn’t show how to take the black piece off the piece that you use to put the holes in the wood. How do you take it off to adjust it. That’s what happen to me I couldn’t adjust it.
I'm really disappointed that there are only 3 stops for board thickness, otherwise I would go with it. 1/2, 3/4, 1-1/2 Presets Is it possible to set it for other thicknesses?
I just purchased this and I was intimidated to try it out, but then I found your video and now am encouraged to try it out. Thank you so much!
I have watched a lot of videos about pocket holes and I finally understand how to use one!! Thank you so much for this video
You are so welcome!
This is the best instruction I've seen in youtube for pocket hole for beginners

Good tutorial, thank you.
Thank you so much for the thorough and informational review. I'm looking forward to buying and using this jig very soon.

Thank you! This is a very good tutorial! I just purchased the 520 for 85.00 at Lowe’s during their Black Friday sale
Happy building!
Just purchased this today I'm glad I found your video.
Have fun building with the jig. Be sure to check out my website for more resources

Hope you enjoy it!

Thank u so much for the plendid tutorial.
Great detailed demonstration! Thank you this encouraged me to purchase and start a small project. God Bless you
You are so welcome!
Great video sis 👏
I'm a carpenter by trade and I enjoy the way you explain the kreg jigs better than the guys just my opinion thank you
Such a cool tool! Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!

Fantastic. Nicely done
Great video, thanks! The link for the tips wasn't available, was hoping to check that out.
Thanks for letting me know. I have fixed it. Here is the link - www.anikasdiylife.com/kreg-jig-for-beginners/
Great job on the video!

Awesome review
Very educating video
Can you use it in 2by4 lumber?
I love your channel. You make power tools less intimidating. Thank you for such awesome content.
Thank you so much!! I think everyone can use power tools and build what they want!!

In that case I would recommend the Kreg720. I have a video about if you want to check it out
@@AnikasdiylifeThat's a real bummer! I guess I'll get the Massca m2, better price than the 720 and smaller.

If you want to be flexible with the thickness, take a look at the Kreg 720. I have a video about that too
How do you take the jig off the holder?
You did it off camera
I found out later that its actually not supposed to come off. Mine was a preproduction piece.
Can I use whith a 1.5 cm board ?
which kit should a begginer buy the 520?
520 is a great starting point but if you have the budget, I would totally recommend getting the 720.
Can it handle an HD guide ?
It cannot.
If a board isn’t one of the three thicknesses, can the jig be adjusted?
Unfortunately this one can’t be. The Kreg 720 is the one you need to be able to do that.
Does it have a vacuum attachment?
This does not but the Kreg 720 does.
A question , is the tool come with cm measurement ?? 🤔
I believe not yet but it will. Please check with the Kreg website.
I just got mine yesterday and it came with millimetres instead of inches.
@@PeeVee1979 that's very cool
Best dewalt cordless dcb996
Is there a metric version of the drill
Yes. I believe the metric version is available in areas where the metric system is used.
Is it possible to use this Kreg jig with 2x4?
Yes. 2x4s are 1.5” thick so you can use it with that setting.
Good nice vido
Thanks
