Kreg Jig® R3 Pocket-Hole Joinery Starter Kit

The Home Improver’s Solution for Building with Wood - the Pocket-Hole Joinery Starter Kit
With the Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig R3, you can build bookcases, shelves, and storage projects for your home. It's also great for creating custom built-ins, and countless other home improvement projects. Plus, the R3 can be used portably to make lasting repairs around your home.

Clamp Pad Adapter
The Pocket-Hole Jig R3 includes a Clamp Pad Adapter, which allows the R3 to be easily secured to your workpiece using any standard bar clamp, C-clamp, or Kreg Face Clamp. For faster and more repeatable pocket holes, choose a Kreg Face Clamp.

Material Thickness Setting
From thin drawer boxes and craft projects to stout 2x4s, this Pocket-Hole Jig R3 can handle just about anything. Independent positioning sliders feature nine depth settings, allowing you to easily join materials from 1/2" to 1 1/2" thick in 1/8" increments.

Organized Carrying Case
A compact yet durable carrying case is included so that you'll always have a safe place to store your R3 and organize all of the accessories it comes with. As a bonus, a depth-collar gauge has been molded into the case for handy reference.

Dual Positioning Sliders
Dual positioning sliders help you properly set your jig based on the thickness of the material you are working with. Simply depress the button on the side of the jig and move the sliders so your material thickness is aligned with the arrow on the jig body. It’s that easy!

Glass-Reinforced Nylon Body
The blue body of every Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig is made from a heavy-duty, glass-reinforced nylon. This composite material offers the resiliency and flexibility you need without sacrificing the strength and durability Kreg customers have come to expect.

Superior Angle
Unlike competing jigs with a shallower angle of approach, the Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig R3 features an optimized drilling angle specifically designed to increase driving efficiency and minimize the overall size of the pocket hole. The result is a compact pocket hole, less than 1 1/2" in size.

Wood-Chip Relief
Sometimes the simplest things are the easiest to overlook. The R3 includes one wood-chip relief hole for every drill guide hole, designed to keep the drill bit clear of excess wood chips, minimizing drill-torque, increasing the longevity of your drill bits, and allowing you to complete a perfect pocket hole in just one plunge.

Hardened-Steel Core
Kreg drill guides are subject to direct contact with the drill bit every time a pocket hole is created. The core of every Pocket-Hole Jig R3 features hardened-steel, which carries a lifetime guarantee. The R3’s core shrouds the bit and supports the workpiece through 100% of the drill-stroke. The end result is minimal bit deflection, reduced tear-out, and a clean, pluggable pocket hole fit for finish work.

The easy-to-use, compact 2" face clamp fits easily into tight spaces. Features a 2" reach and clamps materials up to 2" thick.

Classic Face Clamps are designed for creating perfectly flush Kreg Joints, and they work great for lots of other shop and project tasks that require solid clamping without marring. These clamps feature large clamp pads that distribute clamping force evenly, and hold pieces flush during assembly. When used in Kreg Joinery, the extra-large clamp face gets positioned on the "show" side of the joint.

Classic Face Clamps have a simple screw that adjusts the clamp to match material thickness, plus comfortable padded handles. They are compatible with the Pocket-Hole Jig R3’s Clamp Pad Adapter.

The Multi-Mark™ is an incredibly handy multipurpose marking and measuring tool, perfect for a wide variety of household and jobsite applications. The Multi-Mark features three different scale configurations, a built-in level, a 3/16" (5mm) reveal gauge, and much more. Whether you need to transfer a measurement, lay out mitered corners, or align and straighten project parts, the Multi-Mark is the only tool you’ll need to get the job done.

The Kreg Quick-Flip makes it possible to use Kreg Screws for a variety of strong, simple joints – all with one single tool. Drill a pilot hole and counterbore with one side, then drive a Kreg Screw with the #2 square-drive bit on the other side. With this dual-action tool, you can quickly make joints using Kreg Screws in many different applications.

Kreg Screws are perfect for pocket-hole joints, but their strength and high-quality engineering make them ideal for other uses, too. Use the Quick-Flip with Kreg Screws to quickly face-join corners, attach false fronts to drawers, and much more.

The Quick-Flip features a double-ended insert in a quick-release housing. On one end, a drill bit is sized to drill a perfect pilot hole for a Kreg Screw, plus a cutter that drills a flat-bottomed counterbore that the screw head fits into. Then flip the insert around to expose the other end: a #2 square-drive bit specially designed for use with Kreg Screws.
