I used Kreg.  But, after two seasons and in some instances one season, I am seeing warping/separation.  I really think it has to do with using crappy wood from big box stores though.  I would assume better stock would be better.  I have gone primarily to ordering finger jointed (classic) supers.  By the time I buy the wood and add up time putting them together, ordering them is not much more in $$.  Especially using Manlake with shipping free at $100 and over.  Other big names in supplies will charge in the range of $60-70 for shipping!!!!! That eats into the equation.

I believe Brushy Mountain is now free shipping on orders over 150..  Unlike Mann Lake, they answer EMails quickly.
