Is it possible to use this kit with material thicker than 1-1/2 inches? I ask because the site offers spacer blocks for user with "thicker" material. It would be nice to use the kit on 2x4s for example. Is it possible to use this kit with material thicker than 1-1/2 inches?

There is actually a HD Jig that you can use for wood thicker than 1 1/2" [http://www.amazon.com/Kreg-Tool-KJHD-Jig-Kit/dp/B00PCHKM3G/ref=sr_1_29?ie=UTF8&qi;d=1418828708&sr;=8-29&keywords;=kreg+jig+hd]

Standard sizes from 1/4 up to 1/2 inch. 1/4, 9/32??? 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2 and obviously I'm missing one. It's smaller than the 1/4, maybe it's 3/16. I've almost never used that, or the 9/32.

I used the 3/16 ( 0.5 cm). I think they are available in other sizes. Hope that helps.

I like amend my previous answer. The jig cannot clamp two inches thick because the clamp needs about quarter of an inch play for the clamp to work.

smallest I have used is about 22ga [x3/4" flat].issues might come with using stock wider than 2-3" or thicker than 4 or 6 ga .there are a lot of variables ie. width, diameter/thickness, material, etc. the unit is made of steel and [mine has] well-accepted the stress of heavier projects so 'lighter' ones should be no problem.

You don't mention how wide or deep the crack is but... I wouldn't apply this thicker than 1/4" to 1/3" at any one time. So if the crack is deeper than that mix up enough filler to fill to that depth using the edge of a putty knife to push it into the bottom of the crack. Let it cure and then apply another layer. Repeat until the crack is filled. After the final layer has cured, sand off the excess. This assumes of course that the crack is not still growing larger.

I wouldn't do more than 1/4-1/2 inch at a time, as you need to get air bubbles out. Perhaps you could several layers to get to a desired thickness. I have not tried to do so.

No! I measured it... 1/2 inch, but I agree that an inch would be too thick.

Although this tool is very flexible it also has some rigidity to it. I don't see why you couldn't use it? Also I don't know the extent of what you do. Hope this helped in some measure. Good luck.

The practical answer is 4 1/2" material is too large. If the material was 4", then it would be less "impossible". The hang-up would be: clamping the material to the box to hold it steady and supporting the length of the material. This box is just not designed to do this job. Having said that, I love a challenge: you might find a way to hold the material steady using clamps and setting up a temporary jig. I'm not suggesting this, but I would probably try since I own the box already. The best answer I can give you is this: this tool was never designed to do the kind of job you are contemplating. I suggest you go another route.

Not sure what you mean. If you're talking height of sleeve (its length) and if it is a Jet sleeve so the diameter is correct for tight fit, I don't see why you couldn't use it if it just had an extra 1/2" sticking up above the cylinder. Just don't sand there.The Jet sleeves are a little pricey but I can tell you from experience they last a long time.

Yes u can,starting at sizes 2x3.5" up to 9". I use all these sizes and it works well.

It appears, that the useful "inside diameter" of the belt loop is actually 2", rather than 2 1/4". Since your belt is still half an inch shorter then that, it would seem, that may allow for a little expansion of the loop to accommodate the 1/4 inch thickness, as it loosens up. Seems like it might work, but really can't tell.

The clamp I bought is at my summer home so I can't measure it. One could rig a spacer, possibly triangular, shaped, to take the clamp out away from your material. I work with odd materials like barn siding, cactus skeleton, Antlers etc. amt the device has been very useful.

I agree with Mara's answer. 1/2" gaps are easy. Larger gaps may be problematic, but by making several layers of the mesh it might work. I use the mesh to keep birds out from under my patio where they want to nest, but rats are stronger than birds.

Yes no problem. But 2 1/4*85 will not work as suggested below, unless it has a small core. Be careful what you buy. But this will work.

The jig is said to open to 2 & 3/8s inches, but mine fully opened is 2 & 5/16 inches, I would say 2 & 1/4 would be max workable thickness.The jig is very stable even fully opened. This is a very sturdy made jig. The clamp is 7/8 deep and about 1/8 from bushing to top of clamp.You can clamp onto a piece of stock as thin as 3/8 by 1/4 deep. Hope this helps.
