Which pocket hole jig?

I used the Kreg Jr and I've learned to use caution with it. The commercials show an easy 90 degree angle every time, but some times that's just not the case. When using 2 pocket screws on a little wall stud, I tighten the right screw first then the left screw, the stud leans a little to the right. It may even lean a little to the front also. Be sure to use a square to guide you when using a Kreg jig, and some good clamps.
Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I bought some of these clamps. They really help when assembling a face frame or other project where a nice, precision joint is desired. Rockler sells them
