Cross dowel, 1/2 Ply, jig ?s - Redicliff - 11-30-2020 I'd like to use cross dowels to join 1/2 ply. Assume 1/4 is appropriate cd size? But, the jig? I find this jig on aliexpress 3 in 1 doweling jig which looks like a knock-off of an earlier, discontinued Woodpecker's model. or would an inexpensive jig work, such as this Home Depot offer jig Advise and recommendations appreciated. RE: Cross dowel, 1/2 Ply, jig ?s - cputnam - 12-01-2020 Don't think I'd use dowels to join ½" ply. There are some good doweling jigs available of that is your thing. What are you planning on joining to what and using what joint style? RE: Cross dowel, 1/2 Ply, jig ?s - Alan S - 12-02-2020 This is what I think of as a cross dowel.  Is that what you are talking about? RE: Cross dowel, 1/2 Ply, jig ?s - oakey - 12-02-2020 the first jig you linked to looks to be the type to install cross dowels like Allen shows in his post the other one looks to be just a doweling jig to install wood dowels there are a few cross dowel installation kit makers at least there were like jessem / woodpeckers / LV and probably more
