4.0 out of 5 stars Not too much left to sand if you do it right., April 11, 2007

This review is from: Kreg P-PIN 1000 Pine Plugs - 1000 count (Tools & Home Improvement)

I had read the review below and was worried about getting these pegs to work with my project.

Well, I did figure out why the pegs don't always fit the hole very well - The pocket hole jig is adjustable to accomodate wood that is 3/4" thick up to 1 1/2" thick. This dramatically changes the depth of the hole. If your hole is drilled into 3/4" wood, the pegs do stick up quite a lot. They fit perfectly into a hole drilled into 1 1/2" thick wood.

The solution is really simple though - just trim the peg a bit before you put it in the hole. You don't have to cut the slanted end, just the nearly flat end that rests against the head of the screw. With a little experimenting, it is easy to eyeball the correct cut that will bring the peg into a reasonable sanding height. It isn't ideal and I'd much rather have pegs specifically designed for 3/4" stock but they certainly aren't impossible - it beats making the whole plug from scratch!

No, Kreg did not invent the pocket hole jig, but they sure made it easily availble to the masses.

A pocket hole jig is a great addition to any shop and to make it even better Kreg has these little plugs to easily fill your holes when you're done.

I recall that the last time I was reading the reviews there were those who were crying that the plugs were too long; said that they had to speng forever sanding them down after they were glued in place.

The kind folks at Kreg did that on purpose fellas - one size fits all. Most home handy man types are probrobly using basic 3/4 inch stock but the pocket hole jig is great for a variety of thickness materials and thes plugs are made to use with thick and thin stock.

For 3/4 inch material I either set my small chop saw to about 30 degrees (putting a piece of scrapwood against the backing to hold the plug steady against) and lop off about a quarter of an inch off the fat end of the plug. If I am lazy or only need one or 2 plugs I just zip off a hunk quickly with my little band saw or scroll saw.

Put a little glue in the whole and slide the plug down till it is almost flush.

It dont get much easier than that.

I have been using this system for some time and these plugs just finish the joint off. Thanks Kreg.
ps: If you want to set off a joint ie: drawer- use a dark plug.
