KREG R3 Jr. Pocket Hole Jig System, Blue

The KREG R3 Jr. Pocket Hole Jig System is a fantastic tool for any DIYer or beginner woodworker! It’s compact, easy to use, and makes drilling precise pocket holes a breeze. The adjustable settings allow for accurate hole placement on different material thicknesses, and the sturdy blue frame ensures durability. I love how portable it is, making it easy to take on different projects. The system also comes with everything you need to get started. Overall, it’s a high-quality, affordable tool that I highly recommend for anyone looking to up their woodworking game!

Great product, brought a slightly cheaper one and had to return it, for a little extra, you get so much more. Easy to set up and use, designed with the end user in mind.

So first of all this is a serious bit of kit! Superb quality and feels very robust. It some some slight getting used to for me as I’ve never used one before and on my first attempt I did it wrong and unfortunately drilled into the plastic casing of the rig.Once I got the hang of it, I was blitzing through! I managed to build the frame in the picture attached completely just using these pocket holes!Would 100% recommend if you’re looking for a good quality, polished product that gives an amazing result.

Very good product. The joints are remarkably strong and the product is well made. I expect to use pocket joints a lot now they are so easy to make. However, I wish I had got the K4.

Superb wish I’d have purchased this instead of the Trend jig one this is a street of that versatility superior and drill bit and drill insert works like a dream 👍 5 *****

I bought the cheaper alternative brand pocket jig a few weeks ago and it was rubbish. It didn’t stay in place under the clamp, there is no gauge for the drill depth and for someone that has never used a pocket jig before (like me) it wasn’t the most user friendly tool to figure out. The kreg is everything the alternative brand jig is not. Starting with the jig itself. There is no question where the bit has to be placed on the timber and having the clamp bracket on top makes the jig stay put. Even if you’re not using the recommended clamp that kreg also produce. The drill bit itself is another vital part to the process as it creates a great channel for the screw and if you have used the jig correctly, it will leave a nice lip in the channel for the screw head to sit on. I used it for the very first time yesterday and it was child’s play. I felt really confident using it. I am building a really straight forward stool for my workshop and just a simple butt join is going to work just fine as the kreg provides a really snug tight fit. I like the fact that you get a variety of self tap in square headed screws with it to use with the extended square head bit. It is definitely worth spending the money. I can see myself buying the bigger kit in the future. I couldn’t be happier.

Very easy to use makes construction simple

Having been sucked in by watching the effortless Kreg videos, I was fully expecting this jig not to deliver similar real world results. The reality is quick, neat and strong joints in seconds. The supplied drill bit is sharp and on softwood and MDF it has created 100's of clean holes with no effort, to be nipped together with the supplied screws.The supplied screws are sharp and can be driven quickly and accurately with a drill driver or by hand without necessarily needing additional clamps to create perfectly aligned strong joints.The set is totally portable and quickly adjusted to varying wood depths, though a cheap welding clamp (as opposed to the more expensive Kreg version) holds the jig absolutely steady without slowing progress and is worth buying.Imperial settings take a bit of getting used to if like me you're used to working in metric, but don't let that put you off - it's a cracking concept and the amount of time it spends out of my tool chest is testament to it's versatility.
