Simple to use and set up, the Kreg Jig K5 allows skilled craftsmen and DIY woodworkers to construct furniture, cabinetry and other wood-joined creations with strong, tight-fitting joints. Drilling perfectly deep and angled pocket holes is a cinch thanks to a tool-free clamp that easily and tightly positions a 1/2 in. to 1-1/2 in. workpiece into place. A quick-release 3-hole drill guide on the jig slides up and down to match board thickness while a stop-collar setting block allows precise depth stop measurement. To make repeated holes of the same dimensions on several pieces of wood, use the adjustable workpiece stop to quickly and accurately line up your boards along the base before clamping into place. The removable extension wings provide support for long or wide workpieces and the built-in swiveling dust collection port keeps your work area clean by allowing attachment of a 1-1/4 in. vacuum hose.

Awesome jig/tool. Easy to use.

I like all the Kreg products that I own, and this one is no exception. The only reason I gave the Mitre Gauge System only 4 stars is because I believe it could be improved by making the fence 2″ longer so the swingstop base doesnt fall out at 22″. You can’t set it at 24″ for this reason

Awesome little tool. Makes drilling multiple holes for larger projects a piece of cake!

Have only used it once, but am happy with it so far.

I’ve used it a couple times. Very well built. There is a definite learning curve for this item. Make sure to practice on some scraps first especially when doing 45’s. I look forward to expanding my Kreg collection for sure

To make holes this is the best thing since the drill.

A little more money than the K4 and a lot more than competitors, but the virtues far outweigh the small price difference. Made of better-than-expected materials, this should last for years.

It’s a nice jig but it’s all plastic. If there was one made sturdier (like mostly metal,) I would buy it, but there isn’t. A metal one would be more expensive, but I think the users Kreg is trying to target would pay the extra expense as this gives the product better value. Maybe consider making a better one than you have already? It worked just as described, no issues.

Very intuitive and easy to use. Mount it to peice of plywood for ease of use and storage.

It’s so easy to use. Very sturdy. I’d recommend this product to anyone who is wanting to cut some pocket holes. Don’t go fo the cheaper ones. Splurge and get the K5. Mount it to a piece of plywood or MDF and start cutting.

Ease of use is what I value!

For the money, it is the best joinery system. Wood joints are still supreme, if.you have the time.

Excellent product, set up of the drill bit is slightly confusing because they switch to the lengnth of the screw vs the material thickness which is used on the jig.

love it specially with hot sauce!.

Was easy to assemble & use – it’s really slick; my spouse & our kids love it too.

Works well with 3/4” ply. Haven’t had the opportunity to try it on hardwood. I would like to mention to use a drill with the clutch set correctly. If you use an impact driver you’ll blow out the side of the plywood at the head end of the screw…..pocket end.
