The Harbor Freight clamp does not integrate with the jig. It works so much better with the Kreg clamp locking into the grey holder and being able to move the whole set-up quickly and easily from place to place to drill the holes.

Ah, that makes sense. I think a Kreg clamp is about $15 by itself
Yeah, this is what I was going to respond. I got the K4 a few months ago and coincidentally bought a "hyper tough pliers style c clamp" from Walmart for seven bucks. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Hyper-.../865300563
Never had the Kreg clamp so maybe I don't know what I'm missing but have had no issue at all with the Hyper Tough one.

The Kreg clamp stays attached to the gray holder part of this jig, the Hyper Tough one doesn't. It just makes it much easier and quicker to use with the integrated Kreg clamp versus the cheaper options.
