RE: Triton Duo Dowel - garmar60 - 10-09-2021 Grizzly just brought out a double dowel cutter. May look at it. It may have improved on the triton Gary RE: Triton Duo Dowel - Cabinet Monkey - 10-16-2021 Seems to be a copy with a different trigger - which isn’t an improvement. Still no 5mm bits.

The CTM is great for cabinet work. I don't anticipate building anymore cabinets but if I did I'd buy the CTM jig. It would be much faster than a Domino or the double dowel type machine. RE: Triton Duo Dowel - Alan S - 10-18-2021 I'm curious about this "CTM jig". Could this be a CMT jig of some sort, perhaps the CMT-enlock1? Or something else?

Or something else?The CTM jig is not marketed in the USA. I was able to buy it from Amazon Germany (Amazon.de) using my regular Amazon account. IGM is a huge European distributor of woodworking tools and equipment. They are large enough that CTM will re-brand some of their products under the IGM name. The reason I mention that is because IGM produces better instructions and videos on this equipment. Here is one of their videos showing the angle clamp for sheet goods. https://www.igmtools.com/igm-fkp900-boring-template-set-900-mm-euro-32-mm--free-100pcs-dowels/?tab=6 No video on the flat plate, but they do post an instruction manual: https://www.igmtools.com/documents/fkp900-set/fkp900%20igm%20boring%20template%20manual%20en-de-cz-sk-hu-pl%20v3.5%20a5br.pdf RE: Triton Duo Dowel - Alan S - 10-19-2021 (10-19-2021, 11:51 AM)Cooler Wrote: The CTM jig is not marketed in the USA.

I got it so I can dowel in the middle of a panel. My last cabinet was drilled using a Kreg jig. I agree that the Kreg jig is too short and I joined two to make a longer version. The "cabinet grade" plywood from Lowes has such a thin veneer that drilling often leaves a ragged hole. With the CMT jig I can try using a plunge router for the next cabinet. You need a 14mm bushing and a 5mm router bit to do that. The 14mm bushing was hard to find. RE: Triton Duo Dowel - Handplanesandmore - 10-21-2021 Ragged holes --- Apply masking tape before drilling.
