Review on ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Milescraft 1311 Joint Pro: All Steel Self-Clamping Doweling Jig with Guide Bushings (1/4 in., 5/16 in., and 3/8 in.) - Professional Quality by Mike Barnett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Makes installing dowels easier

They work great and the instructions are very clear. One star off because the screws holding the smaller clamp together were junk. I removed the heads without effort. I also carved the cast aluminum of the smaller jig. Both of these problems are easily solved with a thread repair kit and a visit to the hardware store for quality fasteners. The fasteners used in the drilling jig are of good quality. There are no problems with them, nor with the threads they screw into. The attached picture shows a dry fit of a toy box I made with a jig.

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
