- Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2025Perfect centering on 1/2 and 3/4 material. Easy to clamp for stability. Price was right.
QC on the first one I received was shoddy. 1/2” collar knurling was crosshatched super light. When I started to drill with a 1/2” bit, the collar started spinning and pulled out of the plastic. No biggie though. Contacted seller and they sent a replacement the next day. Replacement worked great. Was able to have my holes drilled for floating shelves. Great addition to the kreg collection.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2024I recently purchased the Kreg Portable Drilling Guide, and it has quickly become an indispensable tool in my workshop. As an avid DIYer, I often work on various woodworking projects, and this guide has significantly improved the accuracy and efficiency of my drilling tasks.
First and foremost, the build quality is excellent. The guide feels robust and well-constructed, which gives me confidence that it will withstand regular use. The portable design is a huge plus, allowing me to easily move it around my workspace and even take it with me for on-site projects.
Overall, the Kreg Portable Drilling Guide is a must-have for anyone serious about woodworking or DIY projects. It has streamlined my workflow, improved my precision, and ultimately, the quality of my work. Highly recommended!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2025Typical Kreg Quality!!!! Very well made, will last for many years, performs flawlessly. Have never bought a Kreg product I didn't love.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2025I’ve only used the Kreg Portable Drilling Guide once so far, but it performed exactly as expected. The six hardened drill guides make it easy to drill accurate, straight holes, and it’s simple to set up. It seems like a solid addition to my tool collection for any carpentry or home improvement projects.
While I can’t speak to its long-term durability just yet, the initial use was smooth, and it did the job perfectly. Overall, it’s a reliable tool that looks like it will be very useful. Looking forward to using it more!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2025I have been a finish carpenter for fourty years. I bought one of these a few years ago and it just sat in tool cabinet. The day I need it for perfectly straight hole in a tight spot it save the day. It was such a save, I bought two more that day. One for the equipment trailer and a buddy. It is a great valve for a amateur or professional.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2024At some point I thought I’d like to have a drill press for certain operations but really couldn’t justify the expense. While this tool can’t compare, it does allow me to drill more precise holes- like a drill press would- and I’m happy with the improved quality of my work.
Nice tool. Recommended.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2024The Milescraft JointMate is useful to drill your flat side dowels because of the adjustable edge clamp. The Kreg snaps snuggly on your 3/4" melamine edge so you can easily line it up with the flat side holes with the indicators for easy perfect wood dowel holes. I don't want to go back to wood screws now. I am even fastening my circular saw jig with wood dowels and glue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works perfectly and super handy!
The Kreg KDG-6000 Drilling Guide is an excellent tool for woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts looking to drill accurate, straight holes without a drill press. Here’s my breakdown of its performance:
Pros:
• Ease of Use: The setup is incredibly user-friendly. The guide has simple markings that help you align your drill bit perfectly, even if you’re not used to precise drilling.
• Build Quality: The KDG-6000 is solidly constructed, with durable materials that hold up well over repeated uses. The rubberized base keeps the guide firmly in place on a variety of surfaces, minimizing slips during drilling.
• Precision: It’s very effective at helping you drill perfectly straight holes at consistent depths, a huge advantage when you're working on cabinetry or other projects requiring precise joinery. The depth stops are also adjustable, which is useful for drilling holes of different lengths without constantly recalculating.
• Versatility: This guide accommodates different drill bit sizes, which makes it flexible for a range of projects. From pilot holes for screws to dowel joinery, it’s handy to have one guide that works well for multiple tasks.
Cons:
• Bit Compatibility: While it works well with standard twist and brad point bits, it’s not designed to work with larger Forstner bits or spade bits.
• Clamping Requirement: The guide can slide slightly on smoother materials, so clamping is sometimes necessary to keep it stable. This isn’t a huge issue but can be an extra step in your workflow.
Verdict:
The Kreg KDG-6000 Drilling Guide is an excellent addition to any woodworker's toolkit, especially for those looking for accuracy and consistency without a drill press. It’s versatile, well-built, and perfect for both beginners and experienced users who want precision drilling for a variety of projects. Highly recommended for anyone doing joinery or cabinetry work!

4.0 out of 5 stars Genuine product
The product got delivered in time in good condition. Nice to work with. Additinal attachment / feature for securing the guide piece on the workpiece would have an added advantage.
