- Are you looking for a way to take your Pocket Holes to the next level? This Castle USA Pocket Hole machine goes into the shop today to see how well it works.
I wanted to go to the next level with my pocket holes and this might just do it! Lets see

If you've got a lot of Pocket Holes to make, or regularly make Pocket Holes, this might be for you. Thanks for watching!
These machines are great. I have the old Porter cable version which is virtually the same machine in a different color. Kreg pocket holes don’t come anywhere near what this thing does. Great job on the video, keep ‘em coming.
Hey there, thanks for checking it out. Have put the machine through it's paces and I'd definitely place it on the "Buy it if you have the budget" list. I've found it to be a considerable time saver when building cabinets etc, and love the shallower angle of the screws for less induced movement when tightening the pocket screws! Feel fee to subscribe if you haven't already!
I love pocket holes! I used them for making my CNC table and many other shop projects. That looks like the Cadillac of pocket hole machines.
Hey Dave, you a splurge of sorts, but hey, you only get to live one life, so what the heck!
@@TradeSkillersAnonymous Might as well buddy....you can't take it with you. 🙂
Nice to see you back at it JR, that’s a pocket hole monster for certain!
Yeah man, can’t wait to get started with it! Hope you’re well Keith!
Besides the shallower angle, the pilot hole goes all the way through unlike the Kreg, so you aren't fighting any issues with tearout. I've taken to dry fitting and pre-drilling with my Kreg holes for important things like trim and face frames, it makes a lot of difference. Still rather have a Castle...!!
You’re 100% right, the castle won’t leave that punch out/surface bump like the kreg did for me. It’s a big step in costs versus even the biggest kreg package but I’m glad that I have it. I’d invite you to subscribe while you’re here (it’s free!). Thanks again and have a great day!

Thanks for sharing and instructing use on that fine pocket hole machinery!
Let’s put it to work! = p
Awesome video! I've seen those before, but now I'm officially jealous!
Hey Hamilton, it's really a nice machine and unbelievably fast! Take care brother!
Another solid video!
Thank you!
Pocket holes do have their place in woodworking for sure. I've seen Stumpy Nubs talk about this machine a few times. Seems to be the Cadillac of pocket hole machines.
Hi Matt, Thanks for taking the time to view, and comment I really do appreciate it. Like what you've been doing with your channel!
For sure, this was a bit of a splurge/treat yourself item, as other machines can do it cheaper, but Im glad I did it, it works suprisingly fast and efficiently.
If you haven't had a chance yet, and are willing, I'd love to ask you to subscribe in order to help me get the word out to more people who might be interested. Thanks again and have a great day!
@@TradeSkillersAnonymous You have to treat yourself now and then. Might as well be a nice tool. Subbed. 👍
There is a place for pocket screws in most shops IMO. I’ve had my eye on this system for a while, versus the Kreg I’ve used for years, just waiting for the project that justifies it!
Hi Bowers Custom Woodworking, LLC , Thanks for taking the time to view, and comment I really do appreciate it.
Other tools could do it, and I've used those for quite some time. This was definitely a treat/splurge but Im really glad I did it. Works SUPER fast and efficient!

@@TradeSkillersAnonymous I did subscribe after watching this video! Keep up the good work!
Cool
Thanks!
Very timely video. I'm building a house with a new woodshop = 16'x32' garage and I'll be building my own cabinets for it, along with cabinets for my wife's sewing room. I'm interested in watching your progress with your shop build, and I'll be sure to take notes on what you designed and how you built it. After getting a new SawStop, and band saw for my shop, a pocket hole machine like you have may in the works.
Hi Pete Nelson , appreciate you watching and commenting. So, I'll be doing a TON of pocket holes coming up soon, this is definietly a splurge/treat yourself kind of tool. Something like a Foreman would be the next closest competitor for speed and ease, but this thing is amazingly fast and efficient to use.
If you feel like I've earned it, I'd ask you to hit subscribe while you're here. It'd help me grow my young channel's reach and I'd sure appreciate it! thanks again!
@@TradeSkillersAnonymous Yep, I subscribed before I typed the comment. Looking forward to more content from you.
Great review….. I’m actually still using the single hole Kreg jig from like 15 years ago. Lol.
The Kreg system works just fine, but Im about to do a ton of pocket holes and had a "Treat yo self" moment! Hope you're doing great!
Well first, imperial of course for woodworking, easy argument, and metric for most other tasks. I love to use pocket holes, especially on furniture that has concealed components. I love my domino like anyone else, but I think pocket holds are an invaluable resource. I obsoletely loath how it often tears out plywood, so I often use tape to protect the veneer. I think the 110 is in my near future. Maybe they'll have a black Friday deal 🙂
Hi Wood Technology , Thanks for taking the time to view, and comment I really do appreciate it. I find the only time I reach for a metric tape is when i need to evenly divide some space, like cabinet carcass that has dividers or something. Easier to use metric for that, but everything else is imperial.

I subbed right after commenting. Probably should have subbed first! Cheers.
I make "carriers" for customers to transport display cases that I make. The carriers are assembled with 30 pocket holes cut with my Kreg Forman. I have it properly adjusted and never change it. I do like the fact that the Kreg holes can be plugged, if desired, with either the same wood or a contrasting wood. This unit that you reviewed looks awesome. Quite impressive!

Where is your work table from? Looks like the base can collapse and be portable but would like to know about the top.
It’s the bora centipede portable work bench. I did a review video on it here in the channel. Subscribe and find that video, the one I bought is linked here:

He actually believes the rubbish he is speaking. Wat a waste of $1700.
LOL, have the day you deserve sir!
Lots of vibration super loud clamps from autozone to much money for that You can build one of these in your garage in 4 hours. Definitely your getting paid because I order that machine and it’s a pice of junk campare to the kreg pneumatic 🤷♂️ I’m sorry but some has to tell the truth
Not paid, go build one with a 4 hour stop watch and post a link to the video, I’d be curious to see it
