No need to dislike the video.
This Kreg K5 mount makes it so much easier to secure to a workbench. I added some PowerTec hose clamps to support my vacuum hose. I really enjoy this new setup.

Very good video! I learned some new things. Thanks!
Thank you Gary. So good to hear from you. =)
I did a similar K5 jig board, but used a hard 1-1/4 vac extension wand going from the dust port to the left (because that's the shortest way to my vac hose) edge of the jig board. I had some spare wands, the smaller OD seemed less obtrusive in that spot, plus it's ridgeless. I just used pipe straps to hold the plastic tube to the blocks
This video was helpful to me in seeing what he and others had done to mount the K5. Thank you!
I’m glad it helped! Thank you!
Very nice setup…….. Thank you for showing this
Thank you. You’re welcome.
Like everyone else, the hose clamps are brilliantly simple and a great solution. A real "duh" moment for everyone who didn't think of it. Good project!
Adrian Mack - thank you! It made sense to me too.
Enjoyed this video. Thanks!
I’m glad! Thank you!
I enjoyed your video. It was very helpful. Thank you!
Vacuum-hose clamps are a great improvement.
Thank you very much sir. So glad to help a fellow woodworker!
Great idea. I have a K-5 simply screwed to a piece of plywood. The vac hose brackets are a particularly good idea.
Steve Gronsky thank you sir. Appreciate your positive input!
Yeah that thing pops off there if you even look at it wrong.
Great idea with the hose clamps, made my own K5 mount a few months ago, very similar but without the clamps and as you'll know the hose gets in the way, drops out and generally is a pain in the arse. I'll be adding those clamps tomorrow.
mrangry65 - Awesome! I’m glad you liked the idea. It was a group effort with The Scotty Do List Channel.
Good idea on the hose clamp blocks to stabilize the vac hose, but I think using heavy velcro in place of hose clamp would be more speedy and more convenient.
Steve W hey, if that works for you great!
Bravo ! et Merci pour cette vidéo très pratique !
Merci!
Yeah. Too smart on the hose clamps. I just duct taped the heck out of the dust port adapter where in plugs into the K5. Mine looks terrible. But works. I leave the hose on the dust port adapter permanently. ( those hose clamps with ridiculously sharp edges left open like that is a good place to cut your hands ) Well done!
Thank you sir, I appreciate the kind words. The clamps have worked well for me.
Thanks, sorry you lost the audio on the last half!
Thanks. I reposted it on Rumble if you want to hear the rest. rumble.com/vgaxqz-kreg-k5-pocket-hole-jig-mount.html
at the end, that plateform was sliding so easily on the table, same without the platform at the beginning, maybe add some anti-skid rubber, the video is great.. thanxs
Normand Boisclair - thanks! I usually clamp it to my table but yes, great idea.
Great video and making this over the weekend. Quick question. Where did you get the adaptor to connect to the dust collection port on the K5?
It’s a Ridgid hose that has a nozzle that fits. If you’re referring to the hose clamps, I got them on Amazon.
Curious as to what size of Forster bit you used to make your handles?
Don’t exactly remember, but it was big enough to put my hand in the hole to grab.
Nice, but ouch! My OCD is killing me! Clean up those handle holes!
Agreed! This was just a quick demo of a jig I already made. But still..... I agree.
@@SCWD_US You had the corner of my eye twitching! LOL
Hahaha
@@SCWD_US Question: what are the handles for? If it's to hang on a wall a simple 1" hole would do it.
@@Marcus_Caius It was the design I chose. I’m sorry if it bothers you.
What size screw did you use to attach k5 to base?
The shortest corse screws Kreg makes. Kreg Pocket Hole #7.
You can also use #8-32 x 1-1/2 pan head Phillips machine screws with flat and split washers. Those thread into 8-32 pronged tee nuts that are relieved into the underside of the plywood base. I like to fasten jigs to plywood bases that way, instead of using wood screws, because I sometimes want to remove and reinstall things without thread erosion, which happens if you remove and replace wood screws too many times.
Did something happen to the audio at the end? Or is this me?
Yes, CZcams blocked the audio. I’m sorry. A lot of people are giving thumbs down. :(
Do ya think ya got enough glue on there buddy????
Steve Shanklin hah no sir you have more?
Yes, I'm sure all the experienced woodworkers out there are rolling their eyes at my work........ =)
Always a smartass troll in the comment section. Nice design, i like it. I probably would have just used screws for the blocks, but glue is fine, just more permanent.
@@curban0520 - Hey thanks for the kind words!
