Make a Simple Doweling Jig 

Simple, but helpful idea. As a Beginner, I often have trouble getting my projects "square". This is going to up my game tremendously. Thanks so very much.

That was pretty cool..thanks for taking the time to make the vid. the most clever part was using the clamp to get the metal cylinders into the jig....great idea.

I spent way too long googling how to do this and then found your video. Really solid, I love the sounds and how you showed how to do everything. Thanks bud

Moved to Japan 12 years ago. But, I worked in a wood shop part-time when I was in college. Those orange clamps bring me back!

made my single hole version this weekend, thanks for the idea! works great :)

Brilliant & Simple! If I had seen this video first, I would not have purchased the doweling jig that I am using now. Nice work......

What you are doing and sharing with the rest of us is AWESOME! Thanks for the greats tip. Please keep posting stuff like this, I am eventually going to try and build my own kitchen cabinets and stuff like this is a great help!

Very cool technique. The line in the middle of the Hole to get perfect results is very clever. Also to draw a line on both woods to find the correct alignment is very smart... You saved me a lots of hours... Thank you very much.

I have seen a few variations on this simple jig, but yours is by far the best. The reason being the little center viewing hole which makes sure that the dowels will always match up perfectly. Excellent job as always! I am going to have to make one to go along with my Kreg system. I used to work in a framing place that made all kinds of picture frames. They would throw out little pieces of Oak, Walnut, etc. I wish I knew then, what I know now.

great editing ! nice job Jeremy- very clear communications.

Nice simple jig! No talk was fine with me:)

I'll make this jig as soon as possible! thanks!

Just found your site, I enjoyed the dowel jig. Thank you for sharing your time and skills.

Making a simple doweling jig. Great for face frames! Please comment below: do you like this style of video or do you prefer when I talk in the video? Thanks!

Hello Jeremy, greetings from Brazil. Great and simple. //// Ola Jeremy, saudações do Brasil. simples e genial.

All these quick tips and they have incredible workshops like we all have at home. I have a hand saw and a kitchen table and a mitre box for modelling so it's tiny.

Very impressive! I'm going to do this before my next shelving bookcase project. Thanks for sharing.

An excellent jig and very useful Thanks

Fantastic. Thank You. You just made my life a lot easier.

very, very good!!! I will try to make one! Thank for the tip!

I always had problems lining up matching Dowel Holes in opposing Timbers and was looking to purchase a Jig...that is until I saw your simple but very effective method... Thank you...you just saved me a small Fortune in time and money...I've also Subscribed to your Channel...

Great video Jeremy. Your choice to talk or not. It's your channel and your knowledge and experience that you are sharing. Maybe talk explaining features and where to get the brass bushings from. Thanks for sharing

Nice and simple. Great job!

Nice jig, very well made....

Such a simple and effective idea! Nice!

Nice project!!

Great stuff... so simple. Right on target for a cabinet project I'm starting. Thanks very much. Tom

Brilliant and simple.

Hi Jeremy.Project of your is easy ! Thank so much .I'll make this jig as soon as possible .

Very clever. Thanks for sharing.

Simple and perfect...loving your channel

Nice job! I really like your projects and jigs. Keep up the great work!

Nice , Jeremy. I just used my non- bushing jig. I'll be getting the bushings now.

the best ideas are the simplest ones, just great. thanks for sharing

thats incredible and an amazing idea!

Hi Jeremy. thanks for the video. I was watching you put together the frame near the end of the video and noticed that you were doing it kneeling on the floor... without any protection for your knees. I know that this may sound weird, but you should protect your knees... You're a young guy but give it another 15-20 years (which, trust me, will sneak up on you fast) and you will start to feel some serious pain in your knees if you don't treat them well now. :)

I prefer the narration just to hear what you're thinking at the time. I just made a workbench - it looks like you need to do that too!

This is fantastic, especially since the other dowel jig builds I've watched all require plexiglass. Yeah, that would be a little advantageous, but I just don't have any lying around the shop, and don't feel like buying some. ;-) Thanks for this! Yeah I do have to buy some bushings but whatever, right? I have a few blocks of maple that would be perfect for this...

Awesome! Thanks for sharing

I like how you built the jig. Pressed the sleeve in rather than pounding it in with a hammer.

another great video. thanks for sharing this :)

Muito obrigado Jeremy. A execução de sua ideia demonstrou como coisas simples podem ser bastante sofisticadas. Parabéns. Desde o Brasil, Marcelo

Excellent design!

Excellent work.

Thanks Jeremy, I went to Home Depot and found 3/8" utility copper tube, it's 2' long for $4.28 and it takes a 5/16" dowel rod that's 4' and it's $.90. So you can make a lot of them and have plenty of dowels. Hope this helps.

Great design and a simple idea, the easier to make the better. Thanks, Barry from England.

Great idea man thank you

Awesome jig! Thanks.

Fantastic. You are a true master. Im proud of your trade. Thanks

Excelente video, aprendo mucho con sus técnicas, muchas gracias y bendiciones

Simples, objetivo e perfeito!

great work buddy! i recently stumbled on your channel and cant wait to see more videos from you.

Good Stuff!!! Great Ideas

Nice work! I will be making one of these as a cheap addition to the Kreg.

the fittings are crazy nice

Excellent, you have just saved me a small fortune. Thanks.

Ótimo gabarito! Parabéns. Sou seu fã.

Very nice, thanks! 👍🏼

Great little jig. Well made, keep the clips coming.

Simple yet brilliant idea.

all brilliant and simple

Very, very nice! Awesome design!

Brilliant. Thank you.

Great work man! Wery simple and wery usefull. I will try to make one jig for my use. Thank for the idea.

Very cool idea!

this and some other woodworking videos made my hobby/winter job a lot easier. thanks.

- Thanx 4 sharing how to make this VERY useful tool.

That's awesome! Stronger than pocket holes and just as simple.

I like that. Simple and very effective with that viewing hole. Now, have I got some sleeving lying around somewhere under that pile of offcuts!! I know I had some last month. I wonder where I put them.

Simple and effective, bravissima !

Good job, I like the alignment hole.

Brilliant! 🤩 Congrats to a very successful video. Well deserved!

Sencillamente, EXCELENTE....saludos.

cool! you have a collection of bullet shells!! :O

Awesome Jer, tnx for sharing!!!

I can't believe I haven't made one of these yet. Great video, Jeremy. I personally like this style of video more, but maybe add titles in certain places to give details where your commentary would have. Then viewers can know exact sizes of hardware like those bronze sleeves.

Wonderful work my friend

very good job

Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

nice work...thanks for sharing

Vraiment ingénieux. J'ai fais une économie de presque 200€ si j'avais fait l'achat d'un appareil. Merci JER'S WOOSSHOP.

Que legal! Parabéns pelo capricho!!

Awesome!👍

This video was quite clear in its instruction, but I tend to like "author voice overlays" with tutorials like this. Just my personal preference. As is, the video still freak'n rocks. Simple, functional elegance that when I see it I ask myself "Why didn't you think of that?", but of course I never would have. Thanks for making the vid and posting. I'm definitely gonna make one of these jigs. I'll be doweling things together non-stop for the next three years! Seriously, great tutorial. Thanks again.

Very cleaver! I will have to make one. I haven't used dowels since high school and this tool will allow me to do it accurately. Thanks for the video and your design.

Parabéns pela criatividade com o gabarito Jovem!

Un saludo, simple pero efectivo, enhorabuena. Gracias.

Love it!

Awesome job. I think I'll make a set for a couple different sizes. Thx for posting.

maravilloso trabajo muy ingenioso good work buddy

Increíble trabajo. Simplicidad y bien hecho! Gracias por compartirlo. Saludosbdesde Chile

Great idea, tanks for share. Excelente, se aprende mucho gracias.

Nice Work!!! and cool video

I am in the need for the device to repair an old dinning room table. will also need it to build a cabinet skeleton. thank you for the video

Nice! Ingenious.

Thank you very much, it seems it works i will try it.

Sir very good and nice with thanks.

Great job, thanks :)

Excellent video. I had to slow it down to 25% speed to read the name of the metal collar thing. But thanks for including that part where you open the drawer at the home improvement store

that was awesome!!
