Got this jig as well and love it, but replaced the clamp with the armor tools clamp. Mounted on plywood and carved out recesses for drill bit, collar etc. and countersunk magnets to hold them in place.

Mate, thats a nice bit of kit. Anything with knurled brass knobs is a winner 😄

Just discovered your channel a few weeks ago. Great work on this review. I am a veteran Kreg pocket hole jig user. Years ago I scored the Kreg solid aluminium jig ( the K2) and made an offer on it...half its original price(later converted into a twin version with super dust extraction). Since then I have used the single small versions too and the HD large jigs from them. I had the K4 version for a few years and loved it. Then about two years ago a I spun for the M1 version after comparing the latest Kreg and the Armor versions. I can agree with you on many of your comments on the Massca great build and design etc but also agree with the other comments on the tearout (some suggest ensuring you try and drill with the grain), the depth setting guide and lack of easy collar setting. Some other suggestions for general use though: after mounting the jig to a board you can add a right angle cleat so that you can clamp it in your vice or use your bench side extrusions( if you have some) to lock it to, make your own side stands according to your jig height for balancing longer boards, simply use another board between your board and the clamp to both increase the friction to hold it in place (or replace it with the Armor clamp as I did on the K4), you can also simply drill two holes in your mounting board and two matching holes in your bench and simply drop the bolts into place when you need to lock the whole jig. The ultimate anchor system for your mobile mounting jig can be to use two Magswitches to lock it down to a cast iron surface( may give you more room if needed), again these are all just a few things thatI have found help using the jig much more pleasurable and efficient. Thanks again for all these( even the Dad jokes). Also from Oz.

I like the stability of the Massca jig, but I end up using the Armor Tool Jig instead. I don't love the extra piece on the Massca uses to measure the drill bit. Meanwhile, the Armor Tool Jig has auto adjustment for the drill bit and the clamp.

For the price and as compared to the "blue brand" I bought two. I mounted each of them to their own piece of plywood and mount them to my work bench's T-Track. With two I can setup the distance between them, don't use the support blocks and drill two sets of holes in one go. Shift the panel down and drill the next set. Having consistent offset and repeatability is amazing when building tons of cabinets.

Nice review. I bought the M2 a while ago on a Christmas sale, and the sale price made it a lot less than those overpriced Kreg jigs. I was surprised that it was solid aluminum, which was a great bonus. I'll give them credit for designing it as well as they did. The stabilizer bars were a nice to have. The drill depth guide is VERY easy to lose so I keep it in a box with the accessories.

I have owned the M1 for about a year now or close to it. It is very well made and the dust collection is perfect. My two complaints about the product would be 1) the tear-out in plywood is brutal. I even bought a different drill bit hoping that would help and it did but only marginally. 2) I wish that they had made the base a standard thickness so it was easy to build a jig with support pieces on each side. I realize they want to sell their M2 with the support rods but I would much prefer to screw the unit into a jig and because of the thickness of the baseplate I had to mill boards to fit because it was in between standard sizes. Overall it is a very solid product. Thanks for the video Shane.

This is an amazing looking tool. It's hard to get one of the middle of the road jigs though. While it saves a little time its not enough to justify 4 or 5 times the cost of a basic jig. I have a crappy basic jig that works great. If I were to try and get a fancy one, for saving time, I think I'd go for the big boy and get a kreg foreman. I've seen them used for 150-200 a few times.

Do the drill bits cause wear / damage to the drill sleeves you insert them into? I recently reviewed a model of this style (different brand), and the sleeves were being worn away so fast that I retuned the unit.

Those dang instruction booklets. I don't know why manufacturers include them in the box. Men don't need them.

Imperial weight? Oz Land going back to imperial weight giving up on the metric? :) I like the various mounting areas for the device and the bit setting wheel. That ability to take it apart to use the drill portion where it might be needed on something already built (it happens!), is the cat's meow. Anyway. it looks like Massca out Kreg, Kreg! About time. If I get really back into furniture making, I will try and pick one of these up. Thanks Shane. PS - I just went to their web site. Egads for the price, it is cheaper than the Kreg, as buying the lot of Kreg bundle cost me more than the similar bundle of the Massca M2 Pro. Made of Aluminum, instead of plastic (I already dropped and broke one Kreg system, on my second), I am in. -ab
