I bought this jig a couple months ago and as a 1st time pocket hole maker/user ever, I already feel like a pro. This is one of those "best things you ever bought" items. Good video. . . .
C8 Vetteman. Thanks for your comment. I agree it is a super helpful tool. You may have given me a video idea. Lol. I'm glad it has helped you with your woodworking projects. Thats awesome. Thanks for watching and commenting my friend. 👍
I just picked up one of these and agree they are fantastic. I have used the other brands too but the innovation and ease of use of the Autojig puts it ahead of the pack. Thanks for the video. Subbed. Cheers 👍
This is a cleverly designed jig. If I had to dig deep and list one gripe about this jig, it can be irritating to remove and replace the allen key from its holder. Otherwise it’s an excellent jig. Thanks for the demo.
Great review Mike. I would love to see a side by side comparison of Armor vs Kreg vs Massca. I believe you have the Kreg so a Kreg vs Armor would be doable maybe. I really appreciate your content and glad to see your channel has almost 900 subs. You will be over 1000 soon and then over 10k before you know it. Keep creating and inspiring. Now, go make some sawdust.
Thanks so much Married Man. In fact I do have a head to head video coming up. Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm glad to see your channel growing as well 👍. We both will be there before you know it.
Thanks Jason, I plan on using it for some upcoming build videos. Also thinking about doing a head to head video after I use the Armor a bit more. Thanks for watching. 👍
I have this jig and it is awesome. But about 50 holes in and I am getting tear out. I am using Ryobi drills with their bit. The first 20 holes were super clean but then the fraying/tear out started happening on the right side of the holes. Any ideas what could be causing that?
I've noticed some taer out as well. Especially on the side where the opening is bigger. Ie. For close together holes. I'm not sure what causes that. I have the 720 and the mascca M2 and they do it too. I'm thinking it may be the pine I've been using. I get much less with hardwoods. Sorry I couldn't help you out. Thanks for the comment. 👍
Trust when I say it holds up. Been working with it for two months now and with their screws. Best part to me is that auto collar adjust for scrap woods. To beats buying extra 20 pocket hole drill bits for different drills
sweet Keenon. I'm glad it's holding up for you. I'm sure it will work for years to come. I love the auto adjustment with the collar as well. that makes it so much easier. thanks for watching and your feedback.
excellent review. I'm sold on it . heard that kreg jigs are an epic fail. need something for beginners to learn and seasoned workers to have fun with. question.... the material you used to make your jig holder level for 2x4; where can i buy some? thanks for the review.
Thanks Michael, you can buy it at Wal-Mart for $4 I also have a video on bench cookies and theirs an affiliate link there too. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Id definitely go with Armor but i like the Massca alot... im considering buying rhe quick release from armor and using it with a Massca M2... the only reason i like the M2 over the Armor is the all aluminum body. Great Review Mike
Thanks Tom. I haven't tried the Madsca yet. But I'm impressed with the Armor so far. Thanks for your insight. Now it looks like I'm going to have to try out the Massca M2. Lol
Good video one of the people I subscribe to woodworking garage Richard is his name did one I left a comment and suggestion about color coding the collar of the bits to match the screws, he reached out to them and they said it never occurred to them but may use my idea in the future, for a temporary fix just put some nail polish to match the screw color then you don't have to adjust for thickness.
@@Woodcraft716 no problems if they end up doing it that would be very cool to know it was my idea, the only small downside is having multiple bits but I think it outweighs having to change the setting
Barry, that's crazy. I'll look into it on my end too. I did a Kreg, Armor, and Massca review if your interested in any of those. Keep me posted if you hear anything.

Thanks John. Glad your enjoyed it. Thats for watching and the sub. Glad to have you along. And thanks for the comment 👍
I’ve never heard about this jig before. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching. I think it's really decent. So far, its working well.
Pretty sweet pocket hole jig! Can’t wait to see some build videos with it
Thanks BenW37. I have quite a few builds coming up. We will definitely put it to the test. Thanks for watching. 👍
Awesome review Mike. Honest and to the point. Thanks for the content.
Thanks Ronnie. And thanks for watching. 👍
Nice job Mike Congrats on getting the Jig.
Thanks Richard, I'm thinking of doing a head to head with Kreg720. Thanks for watching buddy. 👍
@@Woodcraft716 You definitely should.
@@EbikeReviews thanks for you tips and insights. It means a lot.
Never get rid of the outro music. It's seemingly familiar and nostalgic!
Thanks buddy. I've often thought of changing it. But, the other side is, its familiar. So, I have kept it. Thanks for watching.

Awesome video and great content. I'm curious to see how that one works out!
Thanks Seth. I'll be using it in a few build videos i have coming up. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for watching.👍
Nice review! Starting to see a lot of switching to the armor jig! Be nice to know a recap after a few jobs if it’s better deal than the kreg!
Thanks Jason, I plan on using it for some upcoming build videos. Also thinking about doing a head to head video after I use the Armor a bit more. Thanks for watching. 👍

You're welcome; OK; i can that material at Walmart a what is it called again?
@@michaelmassetti2575 I think its called Easy Liner.
@@Woodcraft716 thanks I'll look it up.

@@Woodcraft716 look on Rockler for the hose adapter... i have 3 of them for my smaller dust extraction tools... they are cheap like $8 ea

@@sflagg0817 that would be amazing if they took your idea. I hope they do, it's a great idea.
@@Woodcraft716 thanks
Awesome review Mike, after 1 1/2 year all I have the is same complaint as you about the 2x4 otherwise 👍
Thanks Rob. Seems pretty solid to me. Thanks for watching buddy 👍
Pretty interesting. Still hoping my k4 last forever 👊
Thanks Nate. I hope the K4 lasts for you as well. Thanks for watching. 👍
They seem to be out of business. As of this posting, I can not find one for sale.
Barry, that's crazy. I'll look into it on my end too. I did a Kreg, Armor, and Massca review if your interested in any of those. Keep me posted if you hear anything.
I just picked one up from Menards for $40. It was an online special. Seems to be great for the $.
@jeremyclaybaugh8790 I don't think you will regret it. It's made well and easy to use. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
@@Woodcraft716 it seems that Armor tools was bought out by Bora. I think this tool has been discontinued. I’m glad I grabbed one.
Wish I could afford one jogs
I wish they were cheaper as well. You can always make some projects and sell them, reinvest that money into a pocket hole jig. Thanks for watching. 👍
The only thing Kreg has on this is you don’t have to flip for 1.5” material.
Thanks Web Crawler. I agree. I my do a head to head video. See who comes out on top. Thanks for watching.
