It turns out, that the jig is made for stock that is roughly at least 2" wide. If it's not, the drill will do exactly as above. Start drilling through the top of the stock.
Bummer. I have all these rails and stiles cut at 1.5" wide, so I am kind of stuck with them, so all I can do is try to make this work, with what I have.
Yes, I have more walnut available, but I am not interested in wasting what I have, and it is just a touch over 1/2" thick, so if I glue it together width wise, then I'll need to plane it even thinner to make sure the surface is level.
Ah, yea, not going to do that. I am going to use what I have.
After some mental manipulation, I discovered how a 1.5" wide piece of wood looks to a Kreg jig.
As you can see, the hole for the drill bit, starts much higher than the board does. Oops...
