Hello,br>Beech wood is used to make the paint grade plugs. Thanks!
Hello,br>These are for use with our pocket holes and are one size fits all. If you're going to use the 1-, make sure you have everything you need. They will slide in without modification if the setting is 1/2", but anything smaller will need to be sanded/cut after the glue is applied. If the diameter is too large, as these plugs can swell in high moisture areas, you can shrink them back to their original size by placing them in the microwave for a few seconds.br>Thanks,br>Josh
If the drill bit is the same size, you can use them with any pocket hole jig, and almost all jigs are the same angle, so you can send them anyway!

My only wish is that they were available in a larger pack/bulk option; I use a lot of these and would prefer to purchase a large box of them rather than several small boxes.
These are more costly than purchasing wooden dowels and cutting them with a flush cut saw. br>I bought them to use with my pocket hole jig on 3/4-inch plywood, thinking it would save me time from having to cut all the dowels. Unfortunately, because it only works for holes up to 1 inch, it isn't suitable for larger holes. 5 inches means they'll be too long, so I'll have to cut them all with the saw. Unless you're using a one, of course. I'd just buy the dowels and save the money for a 5 inch hole.
It's very handy. It was exactly as described. The tip sticking out a little past the hole bothers me. Maybe there's a reason, but I'm new to pocket holes. It's not a big deal; I'll just use my handsaw to flatten it out, then sand it down. Although extremely useful, a dowel could achieve the same (if not better) results. This is appealing in terms of persuasion.
I made my own plug jig out of scraps from the wood I used for the project, but I recently saw a video of a Kreg plug jig that can be used with the Kreg J3, J4, and J5 routers. J5 jigs. Allows the user to make plugs out of any type of wood.
Now that I've got your attention, I'll move on to the next topic. I expected the holes to stick out and require a flush cut, but they went right in and no sawing is required. If you're looking for a flush trim, these aren't the ones for you.
Kreg, please accept my heartfelt gratitude. Kreg's products never let him down. This was used with some pine that I stained later. These plugs were barely visible, and the fit was snug enough for them to stay in place without requiring hammering. The pluggers will be flush in no time with a little medium grit sandpaper.
In my camp, I installed handrails using the KREG system. The screws did a great job of holding the pieces together. It wasn't difficult to install the angled plugs, but the fit was a little sloppy, with excess plug protruding. We discovered, however, that the excess sanded off easily, and the finished installation looks fantastic.
If you're used to generic brands, go ahead and use them, but if you prefer a brand name for your projects, these are a good choice.
