Woodpeckers is offering a new doweling jig for - - - - - $600+  ! ! ! ! ! ! !

REALLY????
buy two, they're small.
Some neat features.

For $600, you'd think they could include a couple of drill collars.

Ugh.
I think Woodpeckers is starting to delve into Bridge City territory.  Invent a nice tool and charge a fortune for it.  Nice features, but no capability that I don't already have with my existing tools.
Of what use are dowels in this day and age of dominos?
I have a doweling jig that I used the other day.  I don't have the money to buy a domino.

For $600.00 you'd think they would toss in some nice drill bits with those drill collars.   Raised

Ever make leaves for a dining table? Doweling jig is useful to align the pins and receivers. I used a plastic jig for much less.
yea I saw that, thought it was a joke.
Grant it they have great tools but I do believe it is expensive over kill, wish them luck in selling them.
