Review on ๐Ÿ”ง LAPOND Professional Self Centering Doweling Jig & Step Drill Guide: A Woodworking Essential for Perfectly Aligned Wood Dowel Joints by Rick Pickering

LAPOND Step Drill Guide with Self-Centering Dowel Nozzle

Stepped drill bush with LAPOND centering dowel suitable. When delivered, you have to adjust the centering mechanism, which is annoying, but not the end of the world. If you don't adjust it, you will end up with uneven seams. This will be refined, but may also solve the problem in the beginning. Another problem I have is that you can only drill one hole at a time. Most joints require at least two joints, so repositioning is a must. It moves pretty fast, but I'd like to be able to make two big holes next to each other, like in the Kreg jig.

Pros
  • High quality 6061 aluminum alloy (drill guide) and die steel (sleeve), high hardness and toughness, good wear resistance and durable. This is a great tool set for furniture factory and woodworking enthusiasts.
Cons
  • Weight
