Choosing to invest in tools is a risk and finding the right tools for your space is difficult.
Thankfully, it choosing just became easier. Even for someone who only has the weekend to devote to DIY projects like us. Here are 13 things you need to know about the Kreg Jig before you buy it!
Sorry, you guys, but this is inevitable. When you look at the Kreg Jig for the first time, it is confusing. Wait, how does this bit of plastic help me build all the Pinterest projects? The Kreg Tool Pinterest page is full of house building tutorials. You can easily build anything from bathroom sinks to Outdoor Coolers to Dining Room tables! How many tools are that versatile AND create cute little projects?
Pretty nice! While you do need to buy Kreg screws for your projects, the cost is pretty minimal aside from the type of wood you select. On Etsy, similar items cost more than a hundred dollars before shipping.
After just 2 projects, the Kreg had more than paid for itself. For Jordan, it was helpful to see a few projects to make himself comfortable. Jordan picks up the screws in bulk so the price per is relatively low.
