I confess before the forum that I am about to make maple drawer boxes using Kreg screws at the corners. <gasp>
I'll put the screw holes on the outsides of the front and back parts, and I'll have a false front to cover the front holes. My Kreg jig is probably 20 years old: it's the K2000.
I plan to go with 5/8" part thickness. I need to choose the right screw and jig setup for 5/8".
The Kreg screw selector tool tells me to use 1" fine-thread screws, SPS-F1. OK so far.
Now, for the jig setup. The manual says it's nominally set up for 3/4" material, but the kit includes a riser block for 1/2" stock ("Position 2"). The instructions say Position 2 can be used for material ranging between 1/2" and 5/8". ☞ But I'm wondering if I ought to make a half-height riser block, to get 1/8" deeper into the mating part?
Or should I just use 1/2" drawer sides?
