Good DVD, Fast service, Fine product. Sorry I'm late in reviewing.A+ [Posted on 2008-02-27]
I'm in no way a carpenter, but with this DVD I learned a few things I didn't know I could do. Thanks, Larry
Don't waste your time if you want to learn about the Kreg sys [Posted on 2008-03-05]
If you want to learn techniques on the Kreg system DON'T buy this DVD. It's a video of a guy building a cabinet, not anything on the finer points of using the tool. I should have read the other reviews first. Kreg should pull this product.
Read your manual instead. [Posted on 2008-03-08]
I'm very impressed with my other Kreg products but I feel I didn't learn anything from this DVD I didn't already know from reading the directions provided with my pocket jig.
Good demo of the Kreg jig's capabilities [Posted on 2008-04-25]
I don't own a Kreg jig (yet) and wanted to see what it could do. This was a very good demo of its capabilities, using a cabinet as the project being built. The DVD quaility is good, and the process is clear. After viewing the DVD, I am seriously considering purchasing a Kreg jig. I've always told sales people that if they just demonstrate their product's capabilities then it will sell itself. Don't give me words, SHOW ME! This DVD did just that.
I suppose if you already had a Kreg jig and were expecting lots of new info, you might be disappointed. It doesn't show cabinet design, layout, wood selection, etc, but that has already been covered by others. I'm mainly intrested in what the jig can do, not watch someone run a board through a planer. I found it a great sales tool for those of us that don't own a Kreg jig and are on the fence about making a purchase.
Speaking of sales tools, it would be pretty effective for Kreg to have these videos for FREE on their website, as a means of educating folks about what their jig can do. (I'm in the market for a dovetail jig, and the Leigh site has a KILLER selection of on-line videos that demo their jigs.) If Kreg did the same thing I think they would see a decrease in $10 DVD sales and an increase in $139 jig sales.
If you've seen a Kreg demo, don't waste your time [Posted on 2008-09-17]
Let me say at the outset that I love the Kreg jigs. I own one of the master sets and use it all time. In fact, it's one of the most-used tools in my shop. It's a testament to Kreg's jigs that the company has become virtually synonymous with pocket hole tools, although a variety of companies produce them.
That said, this DVD is nothing more than a brief demo. It may be worthwhile if you've never seen a pocket hole jig used, but you'll get just as much out of a 10 minute in-person demo at your local Woodcraft or woodworking show.
By the way, referencing comments in a few other reviews - my copy of this DVD WAS free when I purchased my jig.
