        It helped in my build
        I am in the process of building a table and wanted to use dowels. I have a dowel jig that centers but does not work on boards where you don't want them centered. My biggest issue with the kit was the pins did not fit snug in the drilled hole. Where it became a problem was when I put the pins in one board and turned it vertical to a board that was horizontal, the pins would fall out. I could not keep them in to mark on the board where to drill. Tape around the end may help.

          Great dowels to replace broken ones in dresser. Helps keep the drawers from being pulled out too far. It came with a drill bit to drill holes, but I was able to reuse the existing ones.

          Excellent kit for a my doweling project. The 5/16" size is most versatile (IMO). Everything I need, and at a good price. I'm thankful you carry in store this small kit. Saved me time. Thank you.

          Waste of money. The stop collar provided will not sit square with the drill bit provided.

          We’re sorry to hear about your experience. The stop collar should sit securely and square with the drill bit, so it sounds like something may be off with the fit or components.

          We’d really like to make this right. Please reach out to our support team with your order details, and we’ll help troubleshoot or send a replacement if needed. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us improve.
