As a relative newcomer to using pocket holes, I obtained a wealth of information from this DVD. The first few minutes of my video had quality control issues(shaking/jumping) but that cleared up before the project started and did not bother me enough to send it back and try another copy. The narrator not only shows how he accomplishes the various steps but explains why he is using one technique and the possible problems we may encounter. I enjoyed this dvd and I have accessed the handy chapter menu to brush up on individual procedures. A very reasonable price, I don't think you will be disappointed if you have an interest in either making tables or enhancing your familiarity with pocket holes.

Like the other Kreg video hosted by John Silloats, which features a bathroom vanity or cabinet project, this one is a bit light on scripting and attention to detail, but the project flows well and the end result is useful insight into a variety of pocket hole techniques.

I would have liked the dialog to be less commercial-ish, with fewer overt references to "how great the Kreg pocket hole joinery system is!" and more of letting the product speak for itself. I also like the format of the Gary Striegler video that Kreg put out, which has several different project examples and techniques geared toward each one of them, rather than a single project like this one. But for the price, which is very reasonable, it's a good value and newcomers to pocket hole joinery will get a lot out of it.

At first I thought this to be a simplistic DVD, however, later I realized that in the course of the building of this one project the authors covered many different applications for the pocket hole joinery. Overall simple, but effective. Worth the money and the time to view it over and over.
