Fit the guide columns to the short base using two M5 guide column locking screws and two M5 nuts. Place the machine screws through the column holes and loosely thread the nuts onto the machine screws. Ensuring the wood waste clearance holes in the columns point away from each other, slide the nut and assembly into the T-slot in the short base, and tighten slightly with the 4mm A/F hex key. The short base for some applications will not need the scale markers to be fitted. Setting Pocket Hole Centres The mini pocket hole jig has variable distance drill guide columns to allow material of min. width of 38mm (1-1/2”) to ...

the first time, it is recommended that a number of trial cuts are made in waste timber as this will allow the drill to bed into the drill guide bushes in the columns. During the bedding in process there will be evidence of some metal swarf. A B 15mm 15mm 10mm 30mm 30mm 20mm Setting the Drill Bit Depth The depth collar on the drill is used to control the depth of the pocket, which also sets the length of the screw that protrudes through and into the joining piece. n� To set the depth collar on the stepped drill, loosen the collar set screw using the 2.5mm A/F hex key and place onto the shank of the dr ...

a guideline only. Adjustments may need to be made for different timber thicknesses. Trial cuts should be made in waste material before drilling into the workpiece. OPERATION Short Base For timber thicker than 22mm the short base is recommended to centre the pocket hole in the timber. This base is also recommended for use when repairing existing joints which need strengthening. For timber 22mm to 32mm thick set the collar 98mm from the drill tip and the base 7mm from the edge of the timber. For timber 32mm to 38mm thick set the collar 110mm from the drill tip, and the base 19mm from the edge of the timber. ...

component until the drill is at full speed. Drilling the Pocket Holes Boring the counter-bored hole involves drilling with a stepped drill into one of the joint pieces. n� Once the collar depth and base is set, clamp the jig to the timber tightly using an ‘F’ clamp or bar clamp. Use a high drilling speed to increase drill life (2000 rpm or higher). Place the drill bit into the top section of the drill guide hole before spinning. Keep the drill bit sharp. Make sure drill bit is held in chuck securely. If the drill spins loose in the chuck the shock can break the drill bit tip. Make sure the jig ...

Self-tapping pocket hole screws do not need to have pilot holes drilled, even in hardwoods. Other types of screws can work in the jig but the self-tapping screws reduce splitting in the timber and are hardened to reduce breakage. Whenever possible use glue on the joint unless it is necessary to disassemble the joint. To aid assembly on corner joints, it is advisable to use a high batten, clamped to the bench. The components can be pushed against it to keep the two parts flush to each other, whilst screwing them together. When assembling edge to edge joints it is advisable to use a face clamp to keep both parts flush. ...

dowel and biscuits. Self clamping whilst glue is drying. Mitred Frame Corner Joints – for narrow frames a single pocket hole is necessary. Cut the mitre and rout any rebates before boring the pocket holes. For material less than 50mm wide it may be necessary to tilt the pocket hole piece so that the hole is not perpendicular to the mitred edge. Square Corner Joints – faster and stronger than dowel and biscuits. Self clamping whilst glue is drying. T- Joints – faster and stronger than dowel and biscuits. Self clamping whilst glue is drying. When changing material or j ...

up. The joint is created not by cutting each mitre to half the angle but by cutting angle on one jointing piece and drilling pocket holes into the square piece. The method results in the mitred edge having an overhang, which will need to be removed by plane or sander. Curved Joints – this uses the same technique as the angled joint, but the angles will be shallower (5° to 15°). The overhang will need to be removed as previous. Mitred Corner Joints – joining two pieces with 45° mitres with the pocket jig is not advisable, however a 90° change of direction can be created by using a b ...

holes can be used for almost all framed cabinet carcass construction. Edge to Edge Joints – allows narrow strips to be jointed to create wider boards such as a table top. Post and Rail Joints – pocket holes allow strong table and chair joints. For fitting table tops to rails, the rails will need to be pocket hole drilled. To allow for the movement of the timber as it expands and contracts the hole must be slightly over size. This is achieved by lifting the rail about 3mm off the base of the jig. This should allow the pilot tip of the drill to break through the end of the timber, giving the ...
