 Dowel perfection September 30, 2008
Great product. I've had trouble drilling dowels, and then successfully mating with an adjacent board. This takes out all the guess work, allowing fast drilling, alignment, and gluing of two boards. No more wasted wood due to incorrect measurements or imperfect perpendicular drilling. Quick and easy... the way it should be.
 Doweling Jig July 4, 2008
This product worked as advertised. I used it to drill line-up holes in an extension table. It has 2 leafs and 4 holes along each edge. To ensure interchangeability the holes had to line up precisely, and they did. Amazon also had the best price.
Excellent Dowel Jig. December 31, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is an excellent tool. It is accurate and easy to use. You need to make sure you clamp it well. The holes are arranged in pairs and by size (top/bottom), like a mirror image for each size. Say you are drilling 5/16" holes. Clamp both boards simultaneously, aligned them as you would like them to be. Drill both 5/16" boards consecutively top/bottom, or viceversa) and you cannot go wrong. It is very easy and straight forward. As, I said this tool works great. You can also buy their drill bits, which are very reasonably priced ($5) and come with a certer point and a few dowels. I did not give it five stars because of the small knob. I think it should be a little larger, as another reviewer pointed out. Minor thing. I did not have any difficulty using it. Go for it.
 Does what it is supposed to do. June 14, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I read one bad review and can only assume the buyer was expecting something much different that what was advertised. I have used this a couple of times to join narrow (1.5 inch by 2 inch) maple boards to make wide kitchen cutting boards and it does a good job. Even with some of the boards a little less than straight, I was able to get a good flat joint. I recently used it to join some "off the shelf" fir 1x12s to make the top and sides for a corner television table. After a minimum of sanding and a little spray paint, the joints were invisible.
As for drilling the holes correctly, I had no problem at all.
Having said all of this, I still would not give up my biscuit cutter/joiner.
Dowel Pro Jig - Wolfcraft January 19, 2007
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
This Dowel Pro Jig produces excellent results. My son and I have both used it numerous times. The resulting joints are right-on, flat and without joint seams, almost no surface planing required at all. Our results are really much better than that achieved using biscuits. I've been using dowels for joints for many years and my son was rather dubious at first. One table top later, and he now thinks as I do. This jig is excellent. My only quibble is that I wish that the knob handles were a bit larger.
I have three other jigs for doweling, but this one is the best. For quick and dirty work, I do use dowel centers at times though. This is also faster than biscuits.
