for Material Width
Spacing pocket holes across the width of a workpiece is important in
maximizing the strength of a joint. When framing most woodworking
projects, it is recommended to place two pocket holes across the width of a
rail to keep the workpiece from twisting once it has been assembled. The
patented three-drill guide fixed spacing of the K2000 makes it extremely easy
to place two pocket holes in a workpiece without having to unclamp and
move the workpiece to drill the second hole. A real timesaver when working
with a variety of wood widths. We recommend using the drill guide spacings
indicated below for each rail width. For very wide pieces such as panels, we
recommend placing a pocket hole every 6-8 inches across the length of the
panel. Use any of the three drill guides to form the pocket on panels.
