If you don’t want to spend 5k on a pocket hole machines or waste money on a hand drill jig from Kreg, give this one a try.. https://www.woodsmithplans.com/plan/pocket-hole-jig/ I made this with the cost of a router and can go create pocket holes way faster than a hand drill jig can. Most materials you’ll have a round a shop.

We're on our second Kreg Foreman (and lots of bits) at the furniture bank and are looking for a more commercial replacement. We will go thru about 80,000 screws this year. About half of them are pocket holes and the rest are just holding parts together. Will let you know what we happen to get.

I was going down an internet rabbit hole yesterday just surfing around (not to mix metaphors, though). I found this on a new simple pocket hole jig. The guy really liked it I noticed that they sell and use Torx screw heads. We have had a lot of problems with the volunteers at the furniture bank not holding the drivers right and munging up the square drive bits. So I contacted them to see if they sell more than the packs of 100 (we use about 32 screws per table at the furniture bank, and usually order one or two boxes of 5000 at a time). Well, they don't, but they volunteered to research it and come up with a quote. I got a call at the end of the day yesterday and again first thing this morning from the president of the company asking for more details. They are still looking into it from their supplier, but in the meantime are sending out several packs for us to try out. What great customer service from a small company. They are just getting into pocket holes. They seem to have a lot of innovative products. And they seem to be geared to the hobbyist market. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=horaysNGJOk

Came across an oldie but goodie tool. Dad dropped a few things off at my place a year ago, I stashed them for later. During my cleaning I came back across this neat old Kreg Jig. I don't think he ever used it. He loved Wood Magazine, this would have been in the late 80's he purchased this, no doubt because it was Wood Magazine top choice rated. Even says so on the box lid. Pretty cool eh!
