Build this Shop-Made Doweling Jig
Drilling centered, consistent holes is crucial for dowel joints. While you can purchase a doweling jig, I made my
own, as in the photo below.

The jig is made up of five basic parts. The drilling guide is a piece of hardwood with a few centered holes that
match common dowel sizes. A pair of ½"-thick fences are attached to pivoting spacers.

To use the jig, slip it over the end or edge of a workpiece. Then pivot the spacers until the fences are flat
against the workpiece. A few strips of self-adhesive sandpaper keeps the jig from slipping.
