Pound for pound this is the best kit a woodworker can have, if you don't want to spend a lot on expensive equipment. You really don't even need a jig if you have these centers. Just lay the boards you're joining on a flat surface and press together and you know exactly where to drill the next hole. Bradpoint bit is sharp as well.

Works like a charm, no more maybe it’s this deep I hope, lol

the items provided work great, and when used in conjunction with an alignment guide, they allowed the handrail spindles to be mounted blind (no fasteners are showing). The drill depth stop in the kit is simple but very helpful to have the correct depth consistently.

I bought the 1/4 and 3/8 inch kits because I'm using the wooden dowel pegs as holders for all of my sockets and I have a lot of sockets. It works great! So far I have drilled 26 holes into a 2x4 for my 26 metric 1/4 sockets. I have a lot more holes to drill yet and the bit and collar are both working great. I use the collar to set the depth obviously and use a drill press to ensure I drill straight. The brad point is very effective because I can get very precise. The dowels fit into the holes very well and snug. I see some people complain about the dowels being too loose. If they don't fit into the holes well and are way too loose then perhaps you are not holding your drill straight. Use a drill press if you can. Wooden pegs alone won't hold forever so I put a drop of gorilla wood glue in each hole. The pegs are working very well. I bought a container of dowel pegs of the Milescraft brand as well. I figure if you get the same brand then you get the same size of dowel pegs and won't run into problems. I have no complaints about this. The bit is not cobalt or anything fancy so we will see how long it holds up but so far it's great. The price is not bad either. I would recommend.

The package is marked 5/16" plugs but the drill and hardware are 3/8"! Clearly a Milescraft packaging error. Who knows how big of a production lot went out with this error. While I'm not blaming this on the the vendor I can't recommend anything from Milescraft for such a inexcusable error.Update....I contacted Milescraft. They quickly (I mean next day!) contacted me and rectified the issue. I am satisfied that Milescraft stands by their products, insures quality and provides outstanding customer service. Inadvertent errors can happen and as long as they can be fixed, I'm a happy customer. Thus I will not hesitate purchasing Milescraft products in the future.

good 'kit' for 1 project. I had additional dowel material to cut more pins, but they are also available by the bag from Amazon. This is cheaper than buying the tools separately unless a large or multiple jobs will be undertaken. I recommend.

Pretty simple kit. Decent quality. Definitely worth the price if you are doing some simple joinery.

AMAZING! I wish the blog and Pinterest world would catch on to dowel joinery instead of the WAY too popular kraig jig/pocket hole joinery. I own a kraig jig and have used it many times before I learned that pocket holes are not the way to go. I wish I never wasted my money on that thing and researched proper joinery from the start. This kit has been perfect for a complete dowel joint beginner such as myself, and I've seen no need to get a dowel jig. When you buy this, buy lots of dowels to go with it! And get a few clamps in different sizes and some wood glue. Honestly that's all you need. You'll want to build and fix everything.

If you only need a couple of dowel pins works just fine. All that is lacking is a jig. I cut a small piece of 2x3 scrap lumber down and made my own one time 3/8" jig being careful to drill perpendicular to the base and side. Worked good enough for a repair. A jig is ridiculously expensive and the cheap ones are just about useless if you only need it once in a while for repairs.I later found instructions on YouTube for making your own jig from wood scraps:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6qUIWdMhYM&index=16&list=PLd7sUkF5r3Ug-D2T3o0OeU7FIpwMKnV3P
