Making a dowel

Recommended Posts

This isn't scrolling but it is useful. I've seen other methods but this is so simple I had to try it. IT WORKS!! I'm making a fire truck and needed a walnut dowel for the ladder. I made the jig and dowels in about 15 minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNp6Gen-PVU#Intent;scheme=http;package=com.google.android.youtube;S.browser_fallback_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DCNp6Gen-PVU;S.android.intent.extra.REFERRER_NAME=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com;end

Good idea Dan. I used a dowel plate,which is basically the same thing with more holes. I's made with a hardened steel plate. Cut your piece to size and hammer it through the hole in the plate. I'm sure the fire truck will turn out great. Take care Dan.

I use the same thing. Using a drill to turn the dowel blank through the hole might work better though. I'll have to try it.
