Hi.
I am using a Kreg Foreman DB210 for pocket screws. I have Baltic Birch Plywood that is 17.5mm.
I used the 3/4" setting for the fence and backed the bit off from the gauge block around 1/32", maybe a little less and the screw is shy of poking out the side of the wood by around 1/32". I checked this by putting the screw in, but not attaching the second piece and instead put the second piece against the screw to check the depth. When I screw it together and tightened it down good, it does not poke out.
I am using the 1.25" Kreg screws.
Is this ok with 1/32" cover over the tip of the screw? I tried about a dozen tests and none poke out.
thanks,
Mike
