Turn SCRAP WOOD into a Pocket Hole Jig! 

I agree with the caption in the thumbnail for this video. Anything built with pocket holes should be considered disposable.

Exactly what I was searching for. Clear, detailed, well-paced, informative. Thanks.

That's COOL!!!! I would keep it!!!!

This tool is extremely useful for hidden drilling and where it is not possible to drill. We are waiting for your new videos.

My first time watching you and well impressed.

I liked your work and was impressed with your explanations

I'll have to make one, really didnt know where to start, thanks!

I made the jig then mounted it vertically and included some supports to speed up assembling some frames. Thanks.

Dude. Awesome job! Thanks for sharing this will go a long way 👍👍

Hi I like your work. I am, starting this project and I am still learning thank you

18.4k! Killin’ it! Love my portable jig and use it all the time! Will make multiples now. When are you going to make DIY Man merch with your logo? Need a shirt for X-Mas! Keep up the great work!

There is no shoulder formed to stop screw head from passing all the way through

Very nice DIY tool. I'd build it just because Kreg is outrageously expensive for a plastic Made in China tool. I feel ripped off. I'd use metal pipes inside, and make two sizes, one narrow one for delicate furniture restoration. The Kreg drill bit is too thick. Sometimes I need #6 screws. fyi: 2:56 - Roll up your sleeves. Dangerous to have long sleeves in a workshop and it also blocks the camera view. Always drill pilot holes in the receiving wood piece. Self tapping screws can crack the wood due to pressure of sawdust being trapped in there. Drill your pilot holes then use a long thin drill bit to match the screw shaft and drill into receiving end with this. Now it will never crack.

Thanks, im gonna try this out....👍

I'm going to build this, but I'll insert a metal pipe inside to make it a more permanent solution.

That is a homemade pocket hole jig and it works just fine! Disposable? No way! Maybe you can make a simple drill press! Merry Christmas and all the best for 2022 to you and your family!

DIY man. Would you be able to build me a Kreg hole jig for attaching 3/4” wood and 1.5” wood?

I love your show and I love to work with wood. I am a retired nurse and have a budget as do most people on social security. I am wondering if you can give me any information about what I would need to do basic stuff. I have some tools and electrical like saws, jig saw and drills. Is it safe to buy used stuff? Where could I go to find these things? Is working with epoxy costly? I appreciate you reading my comment and thank you.

Have not seen you for so long!!! How are you doing!! Merry Christmas!! Do you and your father in law still fly the plane? Any new projects on plasma cutter? How about songs? Do you still sing?

perfect for DIY'er Thanks. About to make mine, but one question, I wonder since there isn't a guided hole for the screw, does the wood split on the plywood side?

😊

OMG you drill at about 20degrees not perendicular

omg... :(

Even better, learn how to do proper joinery...
