There is also a branch of screw-together woodworking known as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocket-hole_joinery '''Pocket Hole Joinery'''] which, as the name implies, makes extensive use of '''Screw Pockets'''.

	Alternatively, simply start to drill the hole vertically then, to complete the hole, locate the drill point in the part-drilled hole and lean back the drill to the required angle. Yet another method is to clamp a piece of scrap wood across the work-piece and drill down into the corner created.

			Various '''[[Jig\|Drilling Jigs]]''' are commercially available to ease the drilling of such shallow angled holes but they can easily be made by pre-drilling a scrap piece of suitable [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardwood '''Hardwood'''] to the required angle ''(usually 15°)'' and using this to guide the drill.
