    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!

    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.

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

    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.

    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?

    • @Anikasdiylife
      @Anikasdiylife  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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

    • @Anikasdiylife
      @Anikasdiylife  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      In that case I would recommend the Kreg720. I have a video about if you want to check it out

    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.

  • @larrywitt6822
    @larrywitt6822 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    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?

    • @Anikasdiylife
      @Anikasdiylife  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you want to be flexible with the thickness, take a look at the Kreg 720. I have a video about that too

      Unfortunately this one can’t be. The Kreg 720 is the one you need to be able to do that.
