Added tip :use blue tape for your pencil Mark ,that way you don't have to sand it l off and if your cabinets are finished you have a nice Mark and you didn't damage the cabinet by putting a pencil line on it just use some tape I recommend frog tape from Home Depot yellow is good because you could see the pencil line really well.

One of the best tutorials on constructing and fitting drawers and slides, effortlessly and seamlessly. Thanks Buddy.

@jackiejung66 4 года назад

I have watched hundreds of DYI videos on YouTub, and this video is by far the best tutorial I have ever seen. No second guessing. Keep them coming, great job!!!!

@manuelruiz2444 3 года назад

LOL, I bought the jig, but your VIDEO, shows me not just using it for the slide, but holding the drawer as well, WOW. GREAT

@georgerothfuss9576 5 лет назад

Jigs are the name of the game to the novice woodworker. Kreg has a great selection of speciality jigs for tough installs. I am a fan!

@icecardinal 4 года назад

To enter this comment, I just use the proper jig. Seriously though, thanks for showing what seems to be a pretty straightforward process.

@coreygrua3271 5 лет назад

Nice pace and I appreciate all the commentary and problem solving along the way.

@coreygrua3271 4 года назад

I was installing new drawer pulls on finished drawers. Taping a small piece of paper or a post-it note to the front allowed me to make my mark for the Kreg jig without having to wipe off the alignment mark. Of course, that technique works in unfinished wood as well. The jig saves so much time. Love it.

@jeremyd6775 4 года назад

I’m just getting into wood working and the pocket hole jig from Kreg has been invaluable

I have installed draws and doors with my Kreg tools before. This video explains it VERY well! Thanks

Great video and tools! Would be great if you could link to all the tools used in the description. Thx

@CGonzales68W 4 года назад

These videos are amazing! Thank you! I finally bought my first home and I’m building everything for the remodel by hand. Kreg products are an upfront cost but save me so much time, money in wasted materials and FRUSTRATION. And the pride at showing off my “new” home.... not enough words to describe!

@melosmoov2u 5 лет назад

That was one of the best videos ever!!! So clear and easy to follow without all the fluff. Excellent job!

@KhmerH20 2 года назад

thank you for showing the adjusting the slotted screw to fix misalignment. for the life of me, it's been very frustrated to use these jigs only to have the drawers not leveled. i was contemplating returning the jigs but looks like this is expected and i can do additional adjustments afterwards. i'm glad i found this video!!!! i was losing all hopes installing drawer slides!

@photog1529 4 года назад

The Kreg jig for drawer pulls is pretty sweet. I used to make my own out of scrap wood, but then you end up with several laying around the shop. This saves me the trouble. Ditto for the European hinge jig...used to make these out of plexiglass, but that got a bit tedious and time consuming. These two Kreg jigs are my mainstays.

@patrickgrimes8964 5 лет назад

@frankjones2277 5 лет назад

Like how you placed the bottom in. I just did this on two drawers. I'm just starting out and this was easy. I see others cutting out Dado's.

@rileycapone 2 года назад

Great help. I love Kreg products. Only one critique, the drawer face is called a drawer front. A false front is the piece that covers the opening under a sink. They are usually a fixed panel. Hence “false front “

@julawa86 5 лет назад

@dienekes4364 5 лет назад

I tore out all the cabinets from my kitchen and installed all brand new cabinets last year. The new cabinets didn't come with pre-drilled holes (for obvious reasons) so I had to drill them myself. The doors / drawer faces are beveled, so doing this by hand was a major pain! After one or two, I decided to buy the cabinet hardware jig to do all the rest. It is AMAZING. It not only cut the time down to drill all these holes, but gave me perfect alignment of the handles throughout the kitchen. I'll never install or even build another cabinet without this jig!!!

Really neat trick to use the brackets on the inside of the cabinet to mount the drawer slides to the cabinet. I have those already and I always thought they were to hold the drawer in place while you mouht the slides on the drawer. Great tip. Thanks.

@xuzhiyuan71 3 года назад

Thank you for this great tutorial. It makes life so easy. How about the installation of the bottom drawer?

@shingabiss 5 лет назад

Nicely done. Two points though, the exposed pocket hole on the backs of the doors looks bad, maybe fine for a shop. Also, when drilling the pull mounting holes with the jig, you didn't put a backing scrap to prevent tear out on the outgoing side of the drill inside the drawer.

I’d save myself a few screws and cut slots in the sides for the drawer base. But I guess this is Kreg wanting to ensure their consumables are well used. 🙂

@joebob7344 2 года назад

Fantastic video. .I have most of these tools but from watching this video I see I need the complete set, These are top of the line tools. When I made my initial investment in them I really had no idea how much of a time saver they would prove to be . Not only that but they make a craftsman’s work look even better. It takes using them on a couple of projects to truly appreciate what a quality tool each piece is. Buy them all you won’t regret it. Also they make great gifts.

@robertw.1499 5 лет назад

I'm a big fan of Kreg products, but pocket holes have their place of use and shouldn't be used in places where they can be seen. The doors are ruined on the inside with all those pocket holes. Why? Good explanation though. Thank you 👍

@markus1564 5 лет назад

Robert W. Kreg provides a complete line of pocket inserts to mask the holes made by the drill. They are nearly invisible when glued,trimmed ,sanded and painted or stained.

@margiejungwirth8074 5 лет назад

Also they have a pocket hole insert cover maker that you can make your own cover out of the same piece of wood you use for making the drawer which lines the grains up to match perfectly. Once sanded and stained there is no sign of any holes. Its a brillant jig IMO. Great video

@patcollins8747 5 лет назад

Tell me all those screw holes on the inside of the doors and panel are covered. Really DIY stuff.

@arthursmith5515 2 года назад

Very good video. The only thing I think you didn’t mention, witch most cabinet maker’s would know, is to make the drawers 1” narrower than the carcass opening to accommodate the side mounted drawer glide thickness.

@tpowfjb 2 года назад

@rolandmetayer7210 5 лет назад

I am sure that the Kreg Jig is a good and handy tool to have. But, in Canada, it would cost me $220.00 to buy the Kreg Jig that I like, from Amazon Canada. This is a little TOO expensive for my ONE project . Hence, I will use another type of joinery. Cheers from Canada ! !

@MultiTom1956 5 лет назад

Thank you Sir for the tutorial 😊I have one jig from kregg .

@redhoward11 5 лет назад

I use pocket holes for alot of things, but this is overkill. Back side of doors are full of pocket holes, and yes they do have plugs for that. But it's just way too much, 18g brads or 23g pin nails with glue would require far less finish work.
