I use my Kreg-Min Pocket Hole Jig quite often but I always forget the settings for different wood thicknesses so I made this little table to look up whenever I'm using my Kreg Mini. There are three measurements that you need. The depth collar adjustment, distance from edge and screw size.

Kreg Mini Drilling Depth


First you want to adjust the collar on the 2-set drill bit to control the depth of the pocket hole.

Next you want to make sure you clamp down the Kreg-Mini the appropriate distance from the edge of the material based on the thickness of the wood you are joining.

The table above summarizes the Depth Collar Adjustment, Distance from Edge and Screw length for 1/2", 3/4" and 1-1/2" boards or plywood.
