Joining ½" -thick stock
(13mm)
When using the optional Micro-Pocket
TM
drill bit with ½" (13mm)-thick stock, set the drill guide at
the ½" mark. Position the drill-bit stop collar for
material. Join the parts with Kreg SPS-F075 screws. The
small-diameter head of these ¾" (19mm) panhead screws
seats below the workpiece surface to allow plugging with
a Micro pocket-hole plug. The ⁄ " stop-collar setting provides

6 Tips to Reduce Wood Splitting
1 Test Pieces
Test the joint with scrap pieces cut from the same stock as your final workpiece.
2 Make sure you're using Kreg Screws
Kreg screws feature sharp, self-tapping tips that slice through the wood fibres.
3
Use the Right Screw Type
Use fine-thread screws in hardwood. These #7 screws displace less wood than the #8 coarse-
thread screws that are used for softwood, plywood, MDF and particleboard.
4 Drive Progressively
Drive the screw halfway in, back it out to clear excess wood fibres from the hole, and then drive
the screw all the way in.
Reduce Friction
5
Apply beeswax or other lubricant to the screw to reduce the friction as the screw enters the
workpiece.
6 Clamp Correctly
Centre the clamp pad on the joint line to apply equal pressure to both workpieces and keep
them from shifting. Firm clamping pressure forces the screw to slice through the wood instead
of splitting it apart.
