Default Kreg Pocket Hole Jig Recommendation

Hi everybody, I'm looking for a recommendation on a good starting
pocket hole jig kit. I've looked up the different models that Kreg
offers, but I'm not sure how much I'd need to get started.

The smallest kit (for around $50) looks pretty bare - is there enough
here to start off with, and is it upgradeable?

The next size kit (around $80) looks like it's got everything you'd
need to get started - any reason why this would not be a good place to
start?

The master kit gets pretty pricey - is it really worth spending that
much?

Any opinions/thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike



I started with the K2000 and absolutely love it. I think if you are
going to make a lot of face frames, it is worth it to get that
particular model. I mounted mine on a board, and clamp it to my
workbench when I'm ready to use it. When not in use it hangs on the
wall out of the way but set up and ready.
