Using the Rocket
TM
Jig
The Rocket
TM
jig is similar to the K2000 Kreg Jig
®
in that it allows you to maximize
joint strength across a wide range of material dimensions by adding modular
blocks to the base of the jig. These blocks adjust the exit point of the screw to
easily work with 1/2", 3/4" and 1-1/2" thick material.

To join 1/2” thick material.
1. Attach base plate to upright with step facing up and
towards the drill guides as shown at right. Use the 3/4”
screws provided to tighten so the base plate slides freely.
2. Set depth collar to 3-5/16” from the
STEP
of the drill bit.
3. Secure workpiece to a stationary object such as a
workbench. Place jig on workpiece referencing off of the
step. Clamp jig securely to workpiece with Face Clamp
TM
.
4. Drill pocket hole. Use a 1” screw to join 1/2”to another
1/2” thick workpiece.
To join 3/4” thick material.
1. Attach base plate to upright with step facing down and
towards the drill guides as shown at right. Tighten the 3/4”
screws provided so base plate slides freely.
2. Set depth collar to 3-1/2” from the
STEP
of the drill bit.
3. Secure workpiece to a stationary object such as a
workbench. Place jig onto workpiece referencing off of the
base plate. Clamp material to jig with Face Clamp
TM
or
similar clamp.
4. Drill pocket hole. Use 1-1/4” screw to join 3/4” to
another 3/4” thick workpiece.
To join 1-1/2” thick material.
1. Attach riser block and base plate to upright with step of
base plate facing down and towards the drill guides
as shown at right. Tighten the pieces using the 2-1/2”
screws provided so that the base plate still slides freely.
2. Set depth collar to 4-1/4” from the
STEP
of the drill bit.
3. Secure workpiece to a stationary object such as a
workbench. Place jig onto the workpiece referencing off of
the base plate, clamp material to jig with Face Clamp
TM
.
4. Drill pocket hole. Use 2-1/2” screw to join 1-1/2” to
another 1-1/2” thick workpiece.
