- I love dowel joinery because it's easy and strong, but I didn't love my dowel jig, so I decided to make my own! I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out and I can't wait to use in on a project!

Just finished making your jig. Works great. It’s the first jig I’ve seen on CZcams that I thought would be useful enough, to take the time to make.
That’s so awesome to hear!!!
David Hooper spline jigs that ride along the table saw fence are well worth the effort. Other then that I agree.
My Name Is Bond yes. It’s on my website.

@@3x3CustomTamar Siempre disfruto mucho ver tus vídeos, proyectos muy útiles, grandes proyectos con el toque femenino que les das, saludos 👍
I really like your design! And I didn’t want spend the money at the store for a dowell jig. I’ll definitely be making this. Thx
This jig is amazing!! I'm new to woodworking but I could have used this today!! Great video!
I've seen variations of the first half of your jig. But that second half...😍😍😍 My grandfather would say..."that's pretty slick".
Ha! Glad he would approve! Thanks!
This is exactly what I need right now for my latest project, awesome
Awesome! Hope it works out for you!
I love to see the joy and satisfaction on your face when you finished a project, it is real.
Haha! I’m always surprised when something works. 😂
that's super relatable lol... every time I start to assemble a project, I genuinely get surprised when it goes together well and looks good right off the bat
Excelente aula, parabéns, tornou o jig bem fácil de construir para os menos experientes.
As always....love watching..... your projects.....your skill.....your enthusiasm.....and...your eyes !!!!
This is a great idea. Thanks for sharing it. Definitely saving this one in my woodworking playlist.
Awesome. So glad you liked it
This is a really nice idea and invention! Well done!
Thanks so much!
I've watched you progress in your skills and you've taken off like a rocket ship. You're an amazing learner, and an amazing teacher. This is fantastic.
Thanks so much! I love learning and sharing!
One of the smartest jigs I’ve ever seen. This is a great build! Thank you for this!
This channel has some of my favorite woodworking project. I can't wait to be done with my remodel so I can get my shop setup and make some of this stuff!
Awesome! Thanks!
Love this. You continue to put out great stuff Tamar!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate that!
Excelente tutorial, felicitaciones, gracias por compartir preciosa señora.
przydatny przyrząd , bardzo dokładnie wytłumaczyłaś kolejne etapy . Dzięki .
Oh I like this one! I'm adding this to the list of things to try! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome! Hope you like it!
Thank you so much for this! I was evaluating jigs that seem overly expensive (at least for my budget) and this jig seems so much better - not even including the satisfaction of making the jig. My search for a dowel jig ends here - this is exactly what I will do!
I just wanted to say, out of all the woodworking channels, yours is by far the most creative, you make jigs and projects that mostly have never been done before on youtube, and really get me in the spirit to just go to the shop and make stuff! Great job!
That’s so awesome to hear! I really appreciate that!
This is the best thing that I've ever seen.
Ha. Awesome
Thank you for making these videos. I am so impressed with your skills and knowledge. You are at the top of your craft, you still work to get better, and you teach others how to improve their skills. I tip my hat to you.
That’s so awesome to hear! Thanks so much!
Smart solution. Built it myself, works like a charm. Thank you 👍
Fantastic. Thanks! I’m still getting over how clever your recent cross-cut sled was, and now you go and make this.
Thanks! Ha! this video is older... but thanks😊
Wow, this is really clever. Who need a biscuit jointer! Haha
Ha. Thanks!
Really great ideas.....you remind me of my daughters with their "can do" attitude. Wish I had your shop....outstanding!
Thanks so much! They sound cool 😉
I’m impressed with such smart ideas!
I've always had problems lining things up perfectly for dowels. I've made this jig and it works perfectly. Thanks for sharing
That’s so awesome to hear! Glad it worked out for you!
That laugh after using the portable bandsaw lol. That's me whenever I use a new tool.
Hahaha! Yeah. Tools are fun 😂😂😂
Good job Regards from Poland
Wojciech Sokołowski thanks!
Thank you Tamar, you have helped in so many wood working that you cannot imagine... bless you
Awesome
Hi Tamar, another great video!
The one thing that impresses me the most about you, as a self confessed untrained woodworker, is that you know all the correct woodworking terms. As a qualified furniture maker, you often take words out of my mouth when describing jobs. I think your woodworking knowledge is exceptional.
Well done and keep up the great videos!!
Thanks so much! I do a lot of research 😉
Thanks so much for sharing. I'm addicted to jigs and have made a few for my table saw, bandsaw, drill press and lathe, specially for pen making. I recently made a couple chairs and was trying to make a dowel jig and found your video and must say this is the best instructional video on this jig.
Thanks for sharing.
Awesome to hear! Glad you liked it!
Yeah, the idea is briliant . Thank you for sharing it . This is the best Doweling jig I have ever seen. I will try to make it .
Awesome. So glad you like it
Hi Tamar, Thank you for providing the template for the Dowel Jig. Thank you for your videos and your woodworking instructions. They are very helpful.
Tamar, I never thought of women as being great at wood woking. Im new to wood working so I don't know much, Im learning through CZcams. Watching and listening to you is very inspirational. You use intelligence in every project you put on CZcams.i hope one day to be as good as you and many of the other wood workers I see on CZcams.
Another winner ! You and your videos are an absolute pleasure to watch . Humor, humility and great ideas and super delivery. Tank you. Keep them coming please.
So glad you like them. Thanks!
Clear instructions and proper explanations for why you do each step. Will definately be using your design. Thank you very much
Awesome. Glad you found it informative!
I've seen many diy doweling jigs on CZcams and yours seems the most simple, smart and adaptable to me. Awesome work I'll try to copy !
Awesome. Good luck!
MUITO OBRIGADO PELAS SUAS DICAS , SEU TALENTO É MARAVILHOSO. E SEU SORRISO É ENCANTADOR , PARABÉNS.
for something so simple, this jig is amazing
Your work is always so excellent, presented and explained clearly, and throughout the duration with a demeanor that's always so pleasant and glowing with positive energy, that for me it's theraputic and relaxing as well. Wish I'd come across you sooner and very glad I did because you certainly have become one of my favorites. Thanks sister....much love.
Awesome to hear. Thanks!
A great project; I also like making and using my own jigs. How ingenious in adapting an expensive jig and making it so simple and easy to make.
Thanks so much! It’s so satisfying to do
Such inspiration. Thank you for leading the way for us newbies.
☺️😉
That is a genius solution, Thanks for sharing this!
I have not been a big fan of dowel joinery because of the problems you stated but this solution addresses those issues very well!
Glad it was helpful!
I love how simple and accurate our is!
So fun to make!
This works awesome! Thank you! I rely on dowels. Other power joiners and jigs are too pricey right now so this is perfect!
Glad you liked it!
siempre haces parecer que las cosas son realmente faciles! encantado con este proyecto! fantastico!
Just found your channel and I'm impressed. I own a woodworking shop and enjoy learning new tricks, and seeing how other woodworkers enjoy the craft. Great content your a great teacher.
Thanks so much! Appreciate that!
so blown away by all your ideas. love it! thanks for sharing
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
There R many videos out there on how to make this jig but none of them explained so well the simple details the way you did it Tamar. Well done, you're the one. Keep doing this. Lov your work.
Glad you liked it!
this is fantastic. your engineering skills are enviable and then you throw in the woodworking skills. thank you so much for your videos
So awesome to hear! I wish I discovered earlier in life that I was j to all this stuff so I could get a proper education. Ha
Great jig.You have taken the already known dowel jigs to a new level. I am speechless...
Thanks so much! It was fun to figure out
Excelente trabajo e explicación, te admiro mucho y te envío un cordial abrazo por tus instrucciones y singular maestra. Saludos desde Colombia 🌷👏👏
Ingenious!!!! I have the same center-finding jig and have always been frustrated with it. There are many things I have seen on You Tube that impress me, but this is the first one that I am definitely going to make. Thank You!!!!
Awesome! I hope it works out for you!
wow!! I really can not believe that how this Jig can join two pieces of wood precise together even better than similar of the stuff in market!! thank you very much Tamar to share that with us
So glad you liked it!
I bought the "inspirational jig" the "one I really want" in your notes a few months ago and love using it. It's versatile and the joints are strong. Yours is versatile and leaves money in your wallet. Great work. I think your enthusiasm is what shines the most though. Thanks for the videos.
Glad you like it! Yeah. That jig looks so great
I haven't seen this style of jig before. Easy to adapt for multiple size dowells. I have metalworking equipment so may build an alloy or plastic one. Thanks for sharing. Great job
Awesome. Glad you liked it!
Glad I found your channel. Love that you make these tutorial videos
Awesome! So glad you like it!
This is genius! Gives me an awesome idea for my drill press. Thank you so much for making this!
Awesome. Glad you found it useful
very very very excellent - I will make it -
thank you.
I love all the jigs you make! Thanks for sharing your skills and passion.
Thanks! Glad you like them!
I have seen a few homemade dowel jig's. yours has been the best in the homemade version. A+ in my book
That’s so awesome to hear! Thanks!
Hi, I built 3 of them..... I replaced the dowels with couch screws.... 6 mm , 8 mm & 10 mm.... Now I can use 3 different sizes... Thanks for the idea and awesome projects.

Sounds like an awesome idea!
The jig you based off of is the jig I do have. I have only used it on one project. I had one are where things just did not line up. There was no issue with the jig, it was my error of how I lined up my boards. I drilled the board facing the wrong way. That is one thing you have to do is be mindful of your board orientation. I fixed by switching to pocket holes. It was my first project with the jig, and I learned from my mistakes. Yes the jig is plastic and if does wear out or break, I now have a source to know how to make a replacement jig. Thank you for the idea and video. Your videos and how you approach and overcome are AWESOME!. It is people like you that inspires me. Please continue to make awesome videos! Mike from Tucson, AZ
That’s so awesome to hear! Thanks!
Wow!..What a simple but very effective design.
Thanks! Yeah! Didn’t take long to make at all
I am just in love with the jigs you always make, they always customised and look great
Glad you like them!
Just Amazing.. I wish I had half the skills you have.. Keep up the good work..
Thanks so much!
How cool is that? So cool. You are an amazing woodworker with those beautiful hands. Thanks for sharing.
EXACTLY what I've been looking for. I'm going to make one! As usual, thanks so much.
Awesome! Hope it works out for you!
Oh wow, fantastic. Fairly new to woodworking, other than general garden projects, I think I'll give this a go! Thank you.
Have fun!
Elegantly simple, like all the best designs.
Thanks!
Well thought out, well explained.
Well done
Thanks so much!
This is one of my favorite vids you've made. Seems like you were having a really good day that day and you seemed so focused. My daughter and I are going to make this jig!
Haha! Perhaps. Have fun with it!
Being doing woodworking for over 50 years. Always enjoy seeing someone discover a better method. Congratulations
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
Que trabalho bacana. Se tivesse visto isso antes eu não compraria. Parabéns
A rather nifty design which I like.
Right now, here in southern France were my barn workshop is freezing, everything is in hibernation until the warmer Spring weather so I've saved this as a little project for then.
Keep 'em coming.
Awesome! I feel ya! I’m freezing in my shop. Ha
That jig is awesome, I want to build one, I've just downloaded the plans - thank you for them. Excellent video too, I'm really enjoying your content. 🖖
Awesome. Good luck with it!! Hope it works out for you!
This is really cool, I'm definitely making this. Thanks for the tutorial, it was really easy to follow. Keep going! And like you said, I can make modifications depending on my needs, thanks again!
Awesome. Good luck with it! So glad you liked it
Muito bom. Adoro seu trabalho.
that jig is brilliant! Love the video!
Thanks so much! It was fun to figure out and make!
I make a lot of tools I need for locksmithing and machining auto parts. I even developed and made a bunch of jigs for tungsten wedding band manufacturing at a previous job. We have to make these things! Mine are mostly made of aluminum & Delrin. Love your special tools.
So fun to figure this stuff out!
Nice jig , this exact design has been around for quite a while. Good build and clear instructions.
Thanks!
very simple.. yet super smart.. pretty cool, dear..
I've always resisted using dowels because of alignment problems. I think this is the answer. Thanks!
Totally. That was always my issue too
I enjoy the creativity of projects more than the actual projects sometimes. Maybe we share that same experience. Always love your videos. This one is awesome!
Thanks so much! Totally. I love figures stuff out. It’s so satisfying.
Well thought out and executed! I will be making one of these.
Awesome! Have fun with it!
As always, great jig and explanation. Keep them coming, I'll be here to watch.

Awesome. So glad you liked it
Extermemly Simple and effective. Thanx for sharing
Glad you liked it. Thanks!
Your videos are simply,efective and very helpfully. i enjoy each video you make it.
That’s so awesome to hear. Thanks!
This is genius. Definitely going to make one for my own shop! Regarding your comment at the end about enhancements to support multiple sizes, to be honest this takes so little material to make I think it just makes sense to have one for each size. I only use two sizes of dowel. It's not a burden at all to have one jig for each...
Thanks so much! I totally agree and I think I’m going to make one for smaller dowels 😉
Wow this is so clever!
That’s a really clever design! Simple but smart. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you like it!
I think I would enjoy making a cool jog like this so much that building another one for a different sized dowel would not be too much of a burden. Great job!
I totally agree! Thanks!
I just picked up the Milescraft doweling kit a short time back. Basically the exact same concept but with 3 different sizes of drill guides for various dowels.
Yours is much nicer than a mass manufactured piece of plastic from the PRC.
It’s nice to have that option for different sized holes though. Thanks!
I'm continually impressed by your videos.
Thanks so MucH! Glad you like them!
Perfect timing, I've been debating which dowel jig to buy. Thanks!
Awesome. Love when that happens
Love the portable band saw, great video!
Ha! It was fun to use. Thanks!
Made one (thank you) and then left it at a friends house and ordered the one from woodcraft. Both are awesome,
Haha
I'm not a woodworker but I recently discovered your channel and I'm so inspired by your videos
That’s so awesome to hear! Thanks!
Thank you so much, from South Africa...Great jig !!
Awesome. Thanks!
4:35 That's the exact same noise I make when I'm happy that I bought any specialty tool for the job 😊
