Fab Freebie: Gettin’ Jiggy With It

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

If you read this morning’s post about DIYing some wood shelves for the nursery, then it should come as no surprise that this week’s giveaway is from Kreg Tools. They’re giving one of you the chance to take home their Kreg Jig, so – no matter your skill level – you can feel like real woodworker.

Kreg Jig Materials

After all, I hardly consider myself to be a master craftsman, but after my latest shelf-building adventure I’m itching to tackle more wood-related projects. They really can be addicting…

Shelves Close

In addition to the Jig itself, this week’s winner will also be snagging a 675-piece Screw Kit, a Face Clamp and a set of project plans to get you started. So with all that at your disposal, I promise not to be jealous if you build something more complex than me. Here’s how to enter:

  • PRIZE: A Kreg Jig, Screw Kit, Face Clamp and set of project plans.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M GETTIN’ JIGGY” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about your dream wood-related project. Is there something you’ve always wished you could build? Or a renovation that you dream of tackling with your own two hands?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 7th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: All 50 of the United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    Well maybe not me, but my soon to be husband would love to be. His ultimate dream is to construct our dream home, using his talents along with the talents of my dad and brother in-law to do most of the work themselves. I can barely work a drill but I support his enthusiasm!

    I’M GETTIN’ JIGGY …

    thinking about what a wonderful surprise for my husband this would be … no more trying to achieve an excellent result using just plain wrong tools! And I think it would be great to have to help convince him he CAN build the plasma tv mounting “slipcover” that I have in mind. Anyway, you’re announcing the winner on my birthday so why don’t you just send it my way :)

    I’m getting Jiggy!!!

    I have built several projects with the help of my Kreg Pocket Jig. Hope Chest, Dining Tables, Cornices, Shelving, etc… This jig has been sooooo easy to use!! When the screws go in, it tightens with consistant pressure leaving no gaps between the joints. I use it so much that I have to purchase screws for it often. Wouldn’t work without it.

    I would love to build more shelves for the bathroom, end room, and more. My son loves the case I build for his room with my Kreg Tool that I purchased. I love it. Its easy to build a class act shelve or case. Thank you Kreg for the TV adds that made me aware of your product.

    Once I saw a built-in that was made up of boxes turned diagonally. The books were put on the shelves in alternating directions so that it looked like a giant checkerboard. I would love to build shelves like that for my 500+ collection of books :-)
