Kreg® Micro Pocket™ Drill Guide $33.99
$33.99
$49.97
Menards is clearing out the Kreg Micro Pocket drill guide for $39.99. Buy it as part of the bag sale https://slickdeals.net/f/14747171-menards-in-stores-offer-everything-you-can-fit-in-a-shopping-bag-15-off-in-select-states-exclusions-may-apply?src=SiteSearchV2_SearchBarV2Algo1 so it is $33.99 with 15% off.
With a 25% smaller hole diameter, the Micro Pocket™ Drill Guide lets you create more compact, low-profile pocket holes in the same joinery applications, but also tackle smaller projects, thinner stock and tighter repair applications, where standard pocket holes simply can't go. It is designed for use with the Kreg Jig® or Kreg Jig® Master System.
This is mostly of value to those that have already gotten the K4 or K5 pocket hole jigs.

Yeah I could tell you stories from menards when I worked in retail 25 years ago.

- smaller holes w/smaller screws are easier to plug and hide
- can put side by side holes in smallish pieces
- holes are easier/quicker to drill
That being said, and since they'll both work in 1/2" stock, I'd say that you probably don't need this unless you are building something with 1/2" stock and need to plug the holes because you can't hide them on the back, underneath, etc.Normal size pocket screws are too large to bury sufficiently in thin stock for easily plugging the holes.
No pocket hole will ever replace the strength of quality joinery.... especially for moving parts like drawers. At the top would arguably be dovetail joints that have been around since the Egyptians for a valid reason. Pocket holes could strengthen glued dovetail or even blind dovetail, but so do pin nails.
PS: This tool, like most, does have it's applications, but will never replace craftsmanship.
