Trust the answer "But this should be a function of where you set the stop
on the drill, not the jig itself. " "Tim Taylor" wrote in message news ![]() I know there is some pocket hole screw guys out there. I don't have the Kreg tool, yet, but I've got a Taiwanese rip off. I got it from Rockler about 6 years ago. What I'm wondering is, on the good Kreg, does it leave the screw heads just a bit proud of the surface? By a bit, I'm talking 1/16th or so. I'm not really concerned about all but one piece I just did. I have to do a dado after it's assembled. No big deal as I'll just grind the screw heads flush. Just wanted to know if it's "normal" or not. TIA. |

Ok, I was thinking maybe it was the stop. I was just wanting to use the
Taiwanese thing as an excuse to get a new one. So obviously the front of the jig is not set flush with the end of the workpiece then. If I move the stop up the bit enough to conceal the screw heads, then there isn't but about 1/8th" of material left for the screw to bottom out on. It's a jig setting and stop collar setting thing then. Thanks for the help guys. "Gooey TARBALLS" wrote in message news:dBD1g.872$gt.91@trnddc04...
