Amazon has the Bora automatic pocket hole jig on sale right now, with huge savings.
A few months ago I noticed that Bora relaunched the Armor Tool pocket hole jig at $210. It held at that price every time I checked over the following weeks.
Well, that pricing has just changed, and I can’t believe how low Bora is selling this for.

First, they slashed the price from, $210 to $118.49. That’s pretty good.
As if that wasn’t enough of a discount, there’s a coupon offer where the price is further reduced down to $82.94 (at the time of this posting).
Lowe’s has it listed at $210, but it’s not available – presumably it’s launching there soon.
The Bora automatic pocket hole jig self-adjusts to workpieces of different thicknesses.
You can adjust the spacing between holes, and there’s also a dust collection port.
Bora says that this will drill holes for any pocket hole screws, but their color-coded screws are easier and faster to use. If you do use Bora fasteners, there’s a handy size gauge on the side.

Not using Bora screws? You can still use the size gauge, just ignore the color guide.
This looks like a lot of pocket hole drilling convenience for under $85.

So is this clearance? Is Bora giving up on the tech they bought from Amor?
Stuart
No. If I had to guess, it’s to get the ball rolling. Or aggressive early holiday deal?

I just checked it out and the coupon does not show up on my Amazon page
Katie
It doesn’t show up on mine either.
Stuart
Hmm. I looked at the coupon terms. It says: Not all customers are eligible for every offer.
That’s really weird, I don’t think I’ve seen that before. I’m glad I shared the screen capture. I’m still seeing the coupon.
I wonder if it’s a PRIME-only deal.
Ross
I have prime and I can get it for $107.36
S
My prime account shows it for $120.46, and I can save 10%, which is $12.05 off that.
So still not as good of a deal as your seeing, but still really good for anyone needing such a tool.
I wonder if Amazon is trying regional sales? I really hope not…
Kay
Same here, except for the additional 10% off
fred
I have no need for one – use an old Porter Cable one that does the self adjusting. But I clipped the coupon – and it shows up in my cart at $84.32
Scott K
Whoa. I’ve made do my with starter Kreg jig and don’t really have a need to upgrade based on how often I use it. But this looks really nice – especially if you have lots of holes to drill or you’re working with different materials. Reclamping and adjusting the Kreg can get tedious.
Ross
Has anyone used this? I like Bora and it looks slick but I don’t want to be a guinea pig.

I got mine from Taytools when they were closing out. It works great! The auto-adjust is super handy for non-standard lumber, which basically everything in woodworking is.
Tom
Same here. I really love it. I only use pocket holes occasionally for woodworking as a hobby, but this jig makes it foolproof. You can also still score the color coded screws at significant discounts at Taylor Toolworks.
John
Thanks!
Just ordered one.
“Buy now, ask questions later!”
Yes, Coupon worked for me BTW
John
Just to clarify:
Coupon discount was only subtracted at checkout. I paid $85, and I’m not a Prime member.
John
edit: $83.52
Brad
I’d definitely jump on it at under $85, but I’m seeing $120 and no coupon.
Sam
No coupon here either. Shame. 80something instant buy. 120 too much thinking.
Andy
Coupon for 30% off the $120 price shows as available for me, but only shows the discount when you check out. I’m seriously tempted by this deal.
Johnny
That’s an incredible deal and I would totally jump on it if I was in the market. Still using and loving my all steel and aluminum Harbor Freight Drill Master jig, works all the time every time. But if not for that I’d move on this instantly.
Jack D
I have the same, and it’s served me well. but I use it enough to go for an upgrade… unfortunately I got here too late! Dagnabbit!!
Donny
What a bait and switch. No coupon for me! Next time copy the coupon code and post it! Going forward it’s going to be hard to trust Toolguyd.com. Is it working? Feeling anything???
Stuart
Not sure what to tell you. I saw the coupon, and have never come across a situation where it wasn’t the same for everyone – at least not in the past 15+ years.
It’s a checkbox, not a code. You cannot exactly copy and paste that.
Others have seen the discount applied before checkout. Maybe you can try that.
Josephus
I was about as frustrated as poor Donny here but do understand that it was possibly a targeted coupon. I’d be in at $80ish but when the price hits triple digit I’m just going to pass. Shows $120 here and I’m a Prime member.
I did laugh at the hysterics.
Stuart
Now I’m seeing $209.99, and so it appears the deal is over for everyone.
