Genius Idea? Game Changing trick for Perfect Dowel Alignment without a Jig

So simple and easy, but oh so accurate. Using ordinary masking tape for lining up the holes for dowels is pretty much fool-proof. I used this method several times after I made this video and with the same results: perfectly lined up dowels.
Now I should mention that the tape locates the centre point precisely, but it's up to you to drill the hole straight. Using a brad-point bit is mandatory and getting a feel for drilling at a 90 degree angle is also very important. However, you can use a block of wood with a hole drilled on the drill press to help guide the drill bit straight, if drilling freehand. Or just drill the holes on a drill press if you have one.
But with that said, the holes don't need to be drilled at the exact angle - they just need to be close and the joint will go together without any problem. The important thing (and why the dowel centre pins failed) is that the holes are in perfectly lined up on both parts, and that's what the tape trick does.
Try it out for yourself!

@garypautard1069 Год назад

Please will someone tell me how you manage to drill holes with those wood drills. All my friends who work with wood like me find wood bits are useless at clearing the swarth and usually stop progressing into your workpiece. We always end up throwing them back in the box and use twist drills. I have bought expensive bits and even had the them sharpened- no use - any ideas ?

I got a set of Harbor Freight pilot bits, they’re pretty bad. Dewalt, Irwin or Bosch are pretty good.

@LewHarriman Год назад

@@garypautard1069 Hmmm.. y'know, I have the same problem. I noted that John's using brad point bits. They look like they might have deeper flutes and some sort of steeper flute angle, which might help clear the swarth. I also admired how he used tiny pin marks... nice and accurate, unlike my clumsy, thick-pointed awl. Those brad points go right into the tiny marks with no hesitation about exact placement. This particular video has convinced me... I'm definitely going to switch out my everyday set of of conventional "either-metal-or-wood" bits and move to to brad points for my woodworking, since I rarely need to drill holes in metal.

Whilst I agree that the tape method is more accurate than the dowel pins, I did notice that your drill angle was off when you did the dowel pin demonstration. Your drill was not aligned to the dowel direction in the wood. So predictably, your joint was off. Having said that, I don't want to take away from this innovative idea. Sure is a great way to do tricky dowelling when a jig wont help. I'll absolutely use this method!

@harimuzumdar8269 Год назад

Simple and practical for anyone to use. Was very nice and thoughtful of you to demonstrate the process, and for different common joints too, and so reaffirming that it actually works in practice. I do have centering pins, but as you showed, one cannot hold the second workpiece flush with the first because of the pins protruding, and then accuracy depends on aligning the parts with finger feel or other flat surfaces for alignment. Your trick allows flush alignment. With a doweling jig, after drilling on the first workpiece, it can be tricky to figure out the right way to clamp the jig to the second workpiece. Your method works like a no-brainer. Thank you, John!

I hate resorting to video instructions demonstrating how to complete a task (whatever it may be) because there’s usually a 30 second intro, and brief summary of why the person wants to do that thing, a minute or two explaining what they’re going to be doing in this “short” video, maybe an anecdote or two about their dog, then an ad spot, thanks to our sponsors, a whole 2-3 minutes outlining the safety procedures, what tools you’ll need, where to find them, how much you can expect to pay, another explanatory 2-3 minutes about the underlying theories involved, then FINALLY they begin. 15 minutes later I know how to remove my front fender to access my fog lights. You get straight to the point. The value of efficiency cannot be overstated. Thank you for a great video! I’ve tried this but I never thought to use an awl. Getting the actual holes to line up is too difficult, but using the awl is genius!

@jerrystark3587 Год назад

As you said, dowel jigs can be used for some applications, but not for all. If you don't have a dowel jig, if you don't want to make a dowel jig, or if the pieces you are joining are irregular, or are of very different sizes, then your approach will work well. I agree with you about using dowel pin markers; they work, after a fashion. Guiding them properly sometimes takes quite a bit of additional setup time and effort. Your approach is far better, which I can say from personal experience. It works like a charm. Great video and great advice! 👍👍

@DanaOredson Год назад

This is awesome for lining up the hole positions. The next critical piece is ensuring you drill the holes accurately for the dowels to be aligned. Of course, the dowel pins suffer from the same problem.

@HonoredMule Год назад

Dowel pins at least cut the problem in half. With one side already drilled, its alignment is guaranteed to be perfect. Make those first holes in the mitered piece, and you're left drilling in a flat, level surface, maximizing your means of drilling those perfectly as well. Add in that you're not using up any consumable, and I'll happily stick with dowel pins.

@petersmith7003 Год назад

👏👏👏👏👏good for people starting out in carpentry who can’t afford these jig dowl tools, so simple

@brianmi40 21 день назад

LOL, dowel pins, $2.25 for 8 (4 sizes x 2 ea.) delivered from Temu... His alignment issue is resolved by using a guide to align the boards to "set" the pins for the 2nd side drilling: use a square for anything right angle, straight edge for straight alignment. For your dowel "jig" use a scrap of wood drilled on a drill press (or at least dead accurate with a guide like a square) that is the right size to limit the drill hole depth perfectly for the dowels. Drill holes about 1/4" apart or so (more than you need) and mark them on the side of the board. Now just lay it down and using those marks on the side, line it up where you want the holes, clamp both boards down and drill away as many of the holes as you like. After transferring the first hole with the dowel pins, use the guide to drill the first hole, put a pin in it then will lock the drill guide in place, and drill the rest of the holes. His problem with the dowel pins came from drilling the holes at a bad angle, as geometry tells us about parallel holes...

@JohnClark-tt2bl Год назад

If you're going to be doing lots of the same holes on identical pieces, you can also use a scrap piece of wood. Just put the scrap over the work piece you're drilling into, and drill through the scrap and into your work piece. The scrap is your template now. Just lay it over the next work piece, lined up in the same way, and use the existing holes to drill into the second work piece. Rinse and repeat. You can even keep the template if you think you'll be making more of your project in the future.

@Tommy_007 Год назад

@HypoceeYT Год назад

I did a variation on this a few months ago when I had to cosmetically position screw holes for hidden hinges on a bunch of nightmare variable cabinet doors. Marking the holes on sticky-side-out masking tape with release pull tabs allowed me to position the door, press it, pull the tab, and have the holes marked. That part of the project, at least, came out great.

@busomite Год назад

@ScotiaDroning Год назад

I think the fit would also depend on the angle at which the holes were drilled. I was surprised that your freehand hole angles matched so well that the joint fit tight.

@windsunh2o 11 месяцев назад

I believe the alignment of the holes is more important than the hole angles being the same. Wood is slightly flexible and compressible to allow for minor inaccuracies. As long as you're pretty close it should work.

@Karma827 9 месяцев назад

I figured this trick out not so long ago in a moment of personal epiphany, but I figured it out with clear tape like what you'd use for wrapping gifts. Instead of taking extra time to cut extra pieces for the ends though, if you roll the ends a few times (similar to how you'd make a loop to make the tape "double-sided", but only a tiny bit on both ends) you get little "handles" that stick the main section of tape down, while still giving you the same ability to quickly release the tape while it remains attached to the second piece of wood. Hopefully this will help shave off those few seconds that ultimately add up. This same trick is also amazing for putting screws in the wall to, for example, mount a power strip, or a hundred other types of situations where you're trying to get "exactly right holes" for the project. And it's so much cheaper than getting any specialized equipment/ tools/ gadgets. I also ended up preferring using the cheap clear tape as it lets me see through to what I'm working on. I tend to use a level to make a softly drawn line, and the clear tape makes lining up the hole marks a simple affair. Most markers and sharpee type pens will write on the clear tape and if you let it dry for a few minutes before transitioning it to the next marking location, it won't smear or rub off on the next spots. Best of luck to everyone!

@gnusndn301 Год назад
