   CMT Pocket pro.  I like this one better than the Kreg.  I have both.

   Thanks for your response.  What is it that you like better about the CMT jig, or dislike about the kreg?Jesse David

   I think it's easier to set the location of the hole, to set the bit depth, I put a 1/8" shim on the deck & set the collar. 

   the kreg is good too, but I like the adjustablity of the CMT better.  You can offset the hole for T&G or for thicker stock very readily.  With the kreg, you can do it as well, but is more time consuming. 

   Both are good systems, my personal preference is the CMT.

   I have the Kreg jig, but have heard positive things about the CMT as well. I've had my Kreg for about three years, use it often, and love it. I purchased a couple extra drill bits and stop collars, and leave each one set up for a specific thickness of wood. Saves set up time, just grab the appropriate bit and drill away.
