@woodshopdiaries: What’s so special about pocket hole screws? AD When you drill a pocket hole, the bottom of the hole is flat. So it’s designed to be used with flat head screws (like washer and pan head), not countersinking or conical shaped heads. This helps pull the joint nice and tight without worrying about the screw popping out the other side. So do you really need to use pocket hole screws in pocket hole? YES! But just as important as using the right kind of screw…is making sure to drive them correctly. Because flat head screws “bottom out” on the pocket hole, overdriving can cause them to strip out. The new @Kreg Tool Ionic Drive Impact Driver comes with an automatic setting designed specifically to prevent overdriving pocket holes. So you get tight, strong joint every time. 🙌 #kregjig #kregpartner #diywoodworkingtips #kregtool
