The Premium Clamp has a little screw you turn on one of the handles to adjust how wide the jaws open. It's really annoying if you're used to the automaxx clamps since you're constantly having to adjust the screw when you're clamping stuff.
What's the difference between the Premium Clamp and the Automaxx clamp?

Also Home Depot seems to have the clamp for the same price if you need to pick it up right away: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Kreg-.../202269083

Heads up, the 6" automaxx is about $28... so about $5 more than the 3".

Yes the Premium clamp is a pain enough that it did not bother me when the plastic/latex handle cover that kept coming off got lost. The Automaxx works great, but you kind of need some decent hand grip. 90% of the time, I just use a quick clamp that is faster, easier and if a heavy duty one with 600lb of max clamping, nothing moves.

Thanks... Occasionally, I actually need one of those for the reach.

I included the Automaxx because the price seemed good. Is it definitely better (maybe more versatile) if the intent is to pair it with the R3 jig?

I am super happy with my Harbor Freight right angle clamp. Used it for multiple projects now (framing a chicken run, d'oh house, etc.) and for DIY use, it's great.

Once you go Automaxx, you never go back.

I NEVER use my Premium Clamp that came with the jig. Only use my Automaxx. Having to adjust the screw in the premium is a pain once you've used a clamp that auto adjusts. The Automaxx allows you to adjust the clamp pressure too. VERY much worth the extra money for it, in my opinion.

Looking at the 6" for those few times I need extra reach. Lowes has the 6" on sale for a few cents more than Amazon, for those that want another buying option.

Does harbor freight have a right angle pocket hole clamp? I can't seem to find one on their website.

No, not for the pocket holes, just generic 90° clamps
