2012 Good Addition to the Tool Shed

I read alot of reviews both on the Kreg tools website, here on amazon, and many other locations before purchasing this system. I recently have been wanting to start building stuff in my house as far as furniture and things like that go. Saw the commercial for this system on the TV a couple months ago and started doing my research into the product and coming up with ideas on how to use it. Kreg has made a great system and yes they need to rethink the box a little bit (ok alot) but I still give it 5 stars because I rate the company along with the product. If you go to the website ([...]) and look into the free plans available they have some nice plans in there including a little "workbench" for this system and it can be mounted or portable. I have already made the actual workbench from the plans listed on their website and it only took me 3.5 hours to get it all together. Not bad I think for someone who is just starting up. My cuts with the saw couldve been better but I was using 2 tires and a cinder block as my work space. If i can make a recommendation for the beginning people out there that want to buy this to get started. I would say do it but make sure you have either an 18V drill or a good corded drill. I rendered my 9.6V BD cordless drill somewhat inop for outdoor things...primary use now is indoors :-D. So I went out and bought a corded drill from Home Depot (Dewalt DWD110K 7.0 amp) and let me tell you that it made the time to completion that much faster. Now that the workbench is done I am going to make my "stand" for the jig and then I can continue with my other projects. Hope this was helpful. I admit my wood working ability is fairly low, but even I was able to tackle a small cabinet modification with this tool. (I removed a wide stile and replaced it with a thinner one and some rails for drawers.) I felt like I could make just about anything (mu-ah ha ha ha).

The tool itself is more sturdy than I thought it would be, and this particular system came with everything I needed to get my 1st project done (plus or minus a few screws). The only thing I would recommend to a new user is once you figure out the thickness of the wood you will be working with the most, buy more screws. You may find yourself working with this more than you think!

I'm not sure if the download offer from Kreg changes, but I did want to mention that they have a cabinet making project download offer that is pretty awesome (the code is in the kit). I had a geek moment and was able to develop a excel worksheet to adjust the base and upper cut list to what I needed based on the information provided in the download. The excel sheet is NOT included, nor to they tell you how to do it. Just and FYI if you wanted to do the same, the information in the book can help you create your own.
