    Motion pro also makes a dowel pin puller. It’s got a mini slide hammer that attaches to them & plunks them out, works great. This is still a great tip for ppl that don’t want to wait for the tool or don’t care to buy it.

    • @MichaelSabo

    I just finished using a thread tap on them. I'm going to pull them out with a slide hammer. I like the idea of tapping them because you do not cause any distortion on the exterior and you also have an easier way of reinstalling them.

    Should the drill set be metric or SAE
 meaning you know how they are each slightly different in sizes? The thinking being the slight difference in sizes might allow for one to fit more snugly inside the other. IDK just a thought

    The better pliers to use here are knipex 8603150 (smooth jaws) they don’t mare the outside of the dowel pin so you can still reuse them again but the the use of the drill bit is definitely right on

  • @BobKuykendall
    @BobKuykendall Pƙed 2 lety

    TL;DW: Stick the shank of a close-fitting drill bit into the dowel to prevent it from collapsing, grab it with vise grips and twist it out. Enjoy the nine minutes you just saved.
