    Beadlock Pro Kit versus Basic Kit

    Does anyone own both of these kits? I am interested in opinions about whether the Pro kit is worth the extra cost. Rockler has the prokit on sale.

      My 1st choice would be the Kreg jig & use the pocket hole matching wood plug to cover it up. It's strong, simply to use and fast.

          I was just getting into WW and I bought the basic BL kit "in case" I ever needed to make a few mortises. Then the first project with mortises I choose to build was a table with 48 of them. I bought a mortise machine for that project and have never used the BL. If I knew then what I know now I would have built a jig for the router and routed them. There is a nice shop-made mortising jig in the latest ShopNotes mag. (Vol 19 Issue 112) that I may build if I can figure out where to store it.
