Customer Reviews
Doweling Jig
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.
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.
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.
