Woodpeckers Universal Cross Dowel Jig Design Strong, Easy-to-Assemble Furniture with Precision Woodpeckers Universal Cross Dowel Jig is the perfect tool for building high-quality furniture that can be assembled and disassembled with ease. Cross dowel joinery, featuring steel dowels with standard threads, provides mechanical strength comparable to traditional joinery while allowing for repeated assembly without compromising durability. With the Universal Cross Dowel Jig, creating accurate, precisely aligned holes for cross dowels and bolts has never been easier, ensuring strong, reliable joints for your furniture projects. Precise Alignment for Cross Dowel Joinery The key to effective cross dowel joinery is perfectly aligning the bolt hole and cross dowel hole, which can be challenging to achieve without the right tool. Woodpeckers Universal Cross Dowel Jig wraps securely around your workpiece, providing stainless steel guide bushings on both the end and side, ensuring both holes align on the exact centerline. The end guide bushing keeps your bolt hole perfectly straight, while the side guide bushing aligns the cross dowel insertion hole, making precise alignment simple. Flexible and Adjustable for Various Projects True to its name, the Universal Cross Dowel Jig is designed to accommodate cross dowels of all sizes, from smaller #10 dowels to robust 3/8”-16tpi dowels used for heavy-duty applications like workbench leg stretchers. The jig offers the following adjustable features: Cross Dowel Position: Adjustable from 7/8” to 2-7/8” from the end of the board.Bolt Hole Centering: Compatible with material thicknesses from 3/4" to 1-3/4". Whether you’re building knock-down furniture for an apartment or sturdy workshop projects, this jig has the versatility you need to tackle any project. Design Flexibility with Hidden or Exposed Cross Dowels The Universal Cross Dowel Jig allows you to choose between hidden and exposed cross dowel joinery. For a clean, seamless look, you can drill a stopped hole to hide the cross dowel within the material. Alternatively, drill through the material to showcase the cross dowel as an accent feature. To complement these design possibilities, Woodpeckers offers a range of bright-finished stainless steel cross dowels, adding a touch of style and a professional finish to your projects. Complete with Guide Bushings and Laser-Cut Indicators The Universal Cross Dowel Jig Deluxe Kit comes equipped with a full range of guide bushings to fit standard bolt sizes (#10, 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8") and cross dowel diameters (3/8", 1/2", and 5/8"). The scales, marked in both inch and metric measurements, make it easy to position the bushings accurately, while the laser-cut indicators on the stainless steel locating washers allow for precise alignment every time.
