Use A Pocket Hole Jig To Create A Unique Lighting Effect On A DIY Lamp

Pocket hole jigs are very handy for building furniture, but they can also be used to enhance a DIY lamp.

The wood lamp shown above is a great beginner DIY project. Start with a cedar or redwood board and use your table saw to cut it to length. Then adjust the angle to cut 30 degree miters along the edges. Once your boards are cut you can drill holes using your Kreg jig in a cool pattern of your choice.

Then, all you need is a bulb and a switch for a light source, or (if you prefer) set of LEDs. Check out the video to see more.
