Review on Center Dowel Self Centering Doweling Drilling Power & Hand Tools by David Pirlet

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not perfect, not terrible. "E ".

- ALMOST self centering. The drill guide block is not quite straight and also has a little play/play. This can be a real problem when trying to line up the dowel holes perfectly. The 7/16 inch hole is too small so I bought it. Tried 3 different drills, none fit. I had to drill a hole. 1/2" perfect size. Haven't tried others with inserts. - The handle isn't straight or centered, but I don't mind that. - I'd recommend putting something on the cheeks if you don't me don't want to tag your project - rubber/foam/leather etc. I would probably return it if I didn't need it ASAP and had to ream a 7/16 hole Kinda disappointed.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Negative impression
