ANOTHER use for pocket screws?! Count me in!
What happens here
After cutting the PVC pieces, set up a Kreg pocket hole jig on a stable work surface. Clamp the PVC board securely into the jig. Using a cordless drill, drill pilot holes at an angle through the edge of one PVC piece, as guided by the jig. These pocket holes will allow for strong, hidden screw connections when assembling the trim pieces. The video shows drilling multiple holes to ensure a robust joint.
Goal: Create pocket holes for strong and hidden joints.
