(More customer reviews)I had read the review below and was worried about getting these pegs to work with my project.
Well, I did figure out why the pegs don't always fit the hole very well - The pocket hole jig is adjustable to accomodate wood that is 3/4" thick up to 1 1/2" thick. This dramatically changes the depth of the hole. If your hole is drilled into 3/4" wood, the pegs do stick up quite a lot. They fit perfectly into a hole drilled into 1 1/2" thick wood.
The solution is really simple though - just trim the peg a bit before you put it in the hole. You don't have to cut the slanted end, just the nearly flat end that rests against the head of the screw. With a little experimenting, it is easy to eyeball the correct cut that will bring the peg into a reasonable sanding height. It isn't ideal and I'd much rather have pegs specifically designed for 3/4" stock but they certainly aren't impossible - it beats making the whole plug from scratch!
