The Kreg Jig Pocket Hole System - A Brief History
The pocket hole jig is a familiar and popular tool to all woodworking enthusiasts. It is a tool used for making pocket hole joints to join wood together. The Kreg Tool Company of Huxley, Iowa revolutionized this indispensable tool with its introduction of the Kreg Pocket Hole Jig. Here is the history behind The Kreg Jig Pocket Hole System, the company and its founder.
Out of pure necessity, Craig Sommerfeld a tool and die maker, created his first tool the "Craig's Jig" in 1986. This was a single-hole pocket hole jig made from steel and aluminum. Seeing the potential of his tool, Craig founded The Kreg Tool Company and revolutionized pocket hole joinery. Today Kreg Tool is the leader in Pocket Hole Technology with its simple solutions and variations of the pocket hole jig.
In the 90's numerous new tool innovations and upgrades were made. The Single-drill guide M1 Kreg Jig had been made available and the Two-drill guide M2 Kreg Jig was introduced. Because of the demand the K2 Kreg Jig was also introduced. The DK100 machine was developed for the custom cabinet and furniture shops and the portable Rocket Jig was patented. The Single drill guide Mini Kreg Jig, an entry level tool great for repairs and space constrained applications was brought out in 1998.
The 21st. Century brought automation and diversification to the Kreg product line. The Kreg Jig K2000 ProPack, the second generation Kreg Jig, the Mini Kreg Jig and Rocket Jigs were launched. The DK1100 single-spindle machines and the DK3100 three spindle machine enter the market place. The 4 and 5 spindle DK4100 and DK5100 machines, designed to drill pocket holes in cabinet sides, stairs, and drawer box components, came out a year later. Product diversification was made with the addition of the Precision Miter Gauge, Precision Band Saw Fence, and Precision Trak and Stop Kit all designed to make cutting wood more accurate.
In 2005 the third generation jig or the Kreg K3 Jig and the Kreg Jig K3 master System was introduced. The tool contains the latest in Pocket Hole Technology including interchangeable drill guide design, front side clamping, Face Clamp, Portable Base, Drill Guide Spacer, Spacerdust collection, infinite upright adjustment, material support stop, and Instruction Manual
While pocket hole jigs have been used by the woodworking industry for many years, The Kreg Jig Pocket Hole System has simplified pocket joinery by its history of innovations and consistent improvements.

 Contractor-grade jig for work on the road with the portable base. |
Thanks to its innovative Removable Drill Guide, the Kreg Jig Master System can be many tools at once. First, a sturdy benchtop jig utilizing the benchtop base for high-speed production pocket-holes, second as a contractor-grade jig for work on the road through use of the portable base, and finally as a high quality repair jig with the addition of spacer blocks to the bottom of the drill guide.
Serious Woodworking Tool with High-Quality Features
Between its solid clamp, large clamping recess, dust-collection attachment, material support stop, removable three-hole drill guide, and seemingly endless adjustability, this jig has it all. If you're serious about owning the highest quality tools, look no further than the Kreg Jig Master System.
Sturdy Toggle-Clamp
The Kreg Jig Master System features the same reliable rear-mounted clamp design featured on the very first Kreg jig. It's a proven design offering incredible rigidity and uncompromising workpiece hold-strength. Adjustments are as easy as releasing the lock-nut, and rotating to the correct setting.
In addition, the large clamping recess makes it easy to secure the jig to the workbench using Kreg's multi-purpose face clamps or any common bar clamp or c-clamp.
 Removable 3-hole drill guide. |
The patented three-hole drill guide lets you make perfectly placed pocket-holes in a wide variety of material widths and thicknesses. Every Kreg drill guide features a hardened steel core that carries a full lifetime guarantee. The core shrouds the bit and supports the workpiece through 100% of the drill-stroke, resulting in minimal bit deflection, reduced tear-out, and a clean pluggable pocket-hole.
Durable Construction and Optimized Drilling Angle
The blue body of the every Kreg jig is made from a heavy-duty glass-reinforced nylon, a unique composite material that offers the resiliency and flexibility you need without sacrificing strength and durability. To increase driving efficiency and minimize the overall size of the pocket-hole to less than 1-1/2 inches, this system also features an optimized drilling angle.
Wood-Chip Relief Hole Extends Bit Life
The Kreg Jig Master System includes one wood-chip relief hole for every drill guide hole, designed to keep the drill bit clear of excess wood chips, minimize drill torque, increase the longevity of your drill bits, and allow you to complete a perfect pocket-hole in one plunge instead of three.
What's in the Box
Kreg Jig Master System, face clamp, portable base, drill guide spacer, material support stop, dust collection attachment, 3/8-inch stepped drill bit, six-inch square driver, three-inch square driver, starter screw set, starter plug set, quick-start guide, SkillBuilder DVD, and carrying case.

As Seen on TV Kreg Jig Review
For the woodworker, nothing is easier than pocket hole joinery using the Kreg Jig K3 System. Since the debut of this system in 1990, the Kreg jig has been the choice for affordable and easy to use pocket hole joinery.
What is pocket hole joinery? The simplest process, all it involves is drilling a clearance hole that is angled and a counterbore in wood. Using another piece of wood, the first one is attached to the second one with a screw. The bottom (the pocket hole) of the counterbore is back far enough from the edge to which it is being joined to allow room for the screw head. The clearance hole sets the screw at an angle so it can hold the wood without popping through.
When it comes to the best pocket holes you will do no better than the Kreg K3 System. The jig is a versatile tool which includes these features:
* You no longer have to reach around to clamp, which is awkward. The clamp is on the front side which is much easier to reach.
* When you need the pocket holes in a specific place, the drill bit guide has three fixed holes for guiding and placing them for narrow, wide and widest.
* The dust collection shroud is a new feature that eliminates the wood chips falling all over the workbench and will make the drill bit last longer.
With added height adjustment, the K3 allows screws to enter material from ½ inch to 1 ½ inches thick. The innovative material support stop will place the pocket holes in alignment on all the pieces you are working on so you have the best pocket hole drilling available.
The system includes a portable base, drill guide block, material support stop, 3/8 inch step drill bit, Allen wrench, dust collection shroud, premium face clamp, depth collar, screws, a carrying case and instructions.
The most uncomplicated way of joining materials perfectly and with the accuracy needed so that the parts of the joint line up precisely are accomplished by the Kreg Jig K3 System. Instead of a set-up that you do not understand or having to measure, and dry fit joint the whole thing can be taken care of in just a few minutes. This is as simple as using a drill.
The Kreg Jig K3 System has a portable case for taking along wherever you need to work or for storing when it is not in use. With more features than any other hole tool sold today, the system is preferred by those working in cabinet making, picture frames, decks, stairs, windows and door jambs and attaching leg rails to perfection. The sky is the limit when it comes to the uses for this jig.
When it comes to strength, independent testing that has been done shows a remarkable difference between using this jig and the old way of using a mortise and tenon joint. The pocket screw joint when subjected to a shear load failed at 707 pounds and the mortise and tenon joint failed at 453 pounds. For a 35% stronger pocket screw joint, the Kreg Jig K3 System clearly came out the winner.
