that's super relatable lol... every time I start to assemble a project, I genuinely get surprised when it goes together well and looks good right off the bat
There R many videos out there on how to make this jig but none of them explained so well the simple details the way you did it Tamar. Well done, you're the one. Keep doing this. Lov your work.
.....as I've said before, TIP TOP VIDEO.!!! A vast number of youtubers could learn a lot by watching your videos. Straight forward. No unnecessary faff. And no playing to the gallery. You are on my short list of natural matter-of-fact presenters. .....oh and by the way , the content is always relevant and therefore interesting.
Tamar, I never thought of women as being great at wood woking. Im new to wood working so I don't know much, Im learning through UA-cam. Watching and listening to you is very inspirational. You use intelligence in every project you put on UA-cam.i hope one day to be as good as you and many of the other wood workers I see on UA-cam.
Thank you so much for this! I was evaluating jigs that seem overly expensive (at least for my budget) and this jig seems so much better - not even including the satisfaction of making the jig. My search for a dowel jig ends here - this is exactly what I will do!
This channel has some of my favorite woodworking project. I can't wait to be done with my remodel so I can get my shop setup and make some of this stuff!
Hey Tamar, thanks for making this available to us all. I just realized after going to Lowe’s to purchase the steel bushing for the center hole, purchase a second bushing with 3/8 outside diameter and 1/4 inside diameter. Then your dowel jig works perfectly with both 3/8 and 1/4” dowels, same jig, just ad a smaller bushing. I too will likely only use 3/8” dowels but I thought I share! The bushings were in the hardware isle.
I just wanted to say, out of all the woodworking channels, yours is by far the most creative, you make jigs and projects that mostly have never been done before on youtube, and really get me in the spirit to just go to the shop and make stuff! Great job!
As soon as I entered your website, I just loved all the jigs and ideas I found for my carpentry projects ... I also like your pleasant way that you show in your tutorial videos ... !Thanks! and greetings from México... !!Keep it up!!
Thanks so much for sharing. I'm addicted to jigs and have made a few for my table saw, bandsaw, drill press and lathe, specially for pen making. I recently made a couple chairs and was trying to make a dowel jig and found your video and must say this is the best instructional video on this jig. Thanks for sharing.
The jig you based off of is the jig I do have. I have only used it on one project. I had one are where things just did not line up. There was no issue with the jig, it was my error of how I lined up my boards. I drilled the board facing the wrong way. That is one thing you have to do is be mindful of your board orientation. I fixed by switching to pocket holes. It was my first project with the jig, and I learned from my mistakes. Yes the jig is plastic and if does wear out or break, I now have a source to know how to make a replacement jig. Thank you for the idea and video. Your videos and how you approach and overcome are AWESOME!. It is people like you that inspires me. Please continue to make awesome videos! Mike from Tucson, AZ
Thank you for making these videos. I am so impressed with your skills and knowledge. You are at the top of your craft, you still work to get better, and you teach others how to improve their skills. I tip my hat to you.
That is a genius solution, Thanks for sharing this! I have not been a big fan of dowel joinery because of the problems you stated but this solution addresses those issues very well!
I haven't seen this style of jig before. Easy to adapt for multiple size dowells. I have metalworking equipment so may build an alloy or plastic one. Thanks for sharing. Great job
Something to consider, i have bought one and made one also. the problem is I can't dowel something small like a joint for a face frame or other small ends.
i got 1 min 30 into this video when i subscribed. my reason - that you actually took the time to reply to peoples comments, not many youtubers do that. That gets my vote, everytime. now to finish the video & watch some more of your clips :-)
I bought the "inspirational jig" the "one I really want" in your notes a few months ago and love using it. It's versatile and the joints are strong. Yours is versatile and leaves money in your wallet. Great work. I think your enthusiasm is what shines the most though. Thanks for the videos.
your channel is my dream, it moves towards joinery and cabinetry. and innovation, and independence. and you’re female, which is inspiring and empowering for me. mostly i am just amazed at your clamps that dont require screwing, just a knock of the hammer... magic! but your jig blows my mind, the spatial reasoning involved in designing these things is kinda crazy cool.
A rather nifty design which I like. Right now, here in southern France were my barn workshop is freezing, everything is in hibernation until the warmer Spring weather so I've saved this as a little project for then. Keep 'em coming.
Hi, I built 3 of them..... I replaced the dowels with couch screws.... 6 mm , 8 mm & 10 mm.... Now I can use 3 different sizes... Thanks for the idea and awesome projects. John Preston (South Africa)
wow!! I really can not believe that how this Jig can join two pieces of wood precise together even better than similar of the stuff in market!! thank you very much Tamar to share that with us
My English skills are short, so I can't express myself, but I really like your video. I'm a woman who works in woodwork, too. I'm a little clumsy, so I often watch woodworking videos and learn with my eyes. The tools you make seem simple and accurate. I really like that it makes the work possible.. you are great~~!!!!!!
I thought I already left a comment, but I don’t see it. So thank you again for all your videos, I truly enjoy them. Thank you for the jig plan. Looking forward to making it and then actually putting it to use. Keep up the good work!!!!
2:22 - I don't know if this helps, but when using an awl, I find that placing your thumb near the end and resting/rolling your thumb helps to quickly line up the point the where you're needing to place it. If that doesn't make sense let me know and ill explain it better if I can
Your work is always so excellent, presented and explained clearly, and throughout the duration with a demeanor that's always so pleasant and glowing with positive energy, that for me it's theraputic and relaxing as well. Wish I'd come across you sooner and very glad I did because you certainly have become one of my favorites. Thanks sister....much love.
Ingenious!!!! I have the same center-finding jig and have always been frustrated with it. There are many things I have seen on You Tube that impress me, but this is the first one that I am definitely going to make. Thank You!!!!
Hi tamar It is a very helpful jig and I will try to make it Thanks a lot and always your channel is my favorite place to learn woodworking Keep going with my best wishes for you
This is a great example of innovation, improving on an idea and bringing the innovation forward with a better jig. Tamer also provides us with a great example of integrity. She mentions up front where she drew her inspiration from and provided a link to that product. I just wish all the UA-camrs who've subsequently copied Tamar's innovation had that same integrity.....
I make a lot of tools I need for locksmithing and machining auto parts. I even developed and made a bunch of jigs for tungsten wedding band manufacturing at a previous job. We have to make these things! Mine are mostly made of aluminum & Delrin. Love your special tools.
Hi Tamar, another great video! The one thing that impresses me the most about you, as a self confessed untrained woodworker, is that you know all the correct woodworking terms. As a qualified furniture maker, you often take words out of my mouth when describing jobs. I think your woodworking knowledge is exceptional. Well done and keep up the great videos!!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I’ll add that some metal tubing is not precisely 1/4, 3/8, or 1/2”. One may use something called a steel spacer in the nuts and bolts area of one’s local hardware store. Such spacers are only a few cents, come in various lengths (no need to cut them) and pound nicely into wood like you showed. Also Lee Valley makes inserts and bushings for interchangeable sizes (I think something like 6 sizes), but the require a 5/8ths hole, larger than most drill indexes. Anyway great video.
I've watched you progress in your skills and you've taken off like a rocket ship. You're an amazing learner, and an amazing teacher. This is fantastic.
Another winner ! You and your videos are an absolute pleasure to watch . Humor, humility and great ideas and super delivery. Tank you. Keep them coming please.
I just subscribed to you about couple weeks ago that is the coolest little jig I have ever seen what sucks now is that I'm on my way to Home Depot to pick up colors and the bolt so thank you very much cuz I'm building it right now
Just found your channel and I'm impressed. I own a woodworking shop and enjoy learning new tricks, and seeing how other woodworkers enjoy the craft. Great content your a great teacher.
Intelligent content, natural presentation, and informative. Oh and did anyone say ‘gorgeous accent’ yet? Thanks for your great videos, and best wishes from the UK.
I just picked up the Milescraft doweling kit a short time back. Basically the exact same concept but with 3 different sizes of drill guides for various dowels. Yours is much nicer than a mass manufactured piece of plastic from the PRC.
Always excited when I get notification of a new video from "3X3 Custom" as I know it will be great and useful content that is well produced. You really are an amazing self-trained engineer. I have found the best woodworkers I have known (and I am an "old guy") take the time to first build a jig.
I enjoy the creativity of projects more than the actual projects sometimes. Maybe we share that same experience. Always love your videos. This one is awesome!
I like that jig and I want to make one! I have a plastic one that does part of the job yours does, but not all of it (unless I take a piece out and rotate it), and it never stays still while I’m trying to drill through it. Thank you for the video. I just need to get some tube to use as the insert and I’ll be ready to build it.
This is one of my favorite vids you've made. Seems like you were having a really good day that day and you seemed so focused. My daughter and I are going to make this jig!
You are my hero. I really learn a lot from your channel. It is no wonder why you have gained so many followers in such a short time. Really looking forward to all your 2020 videos. Thanks Tamar!
I typically don't like taking templates from other people (only because I like designing from scratch) but this was too perfect to not use. Thanks for making a good a simple jig - I already love mine.
I will definitely be building this jig. I have a plan to do some exposed dowel joinery to recreate a project my grandfather made before I was born. I think it is simple enough that one jig per dowel size would not be that crazy to make. Unless someone suggested a reasonable interchangeable insert for different dowel sizes, I think individual jigs would be easier to do.
Hey Tam, Just started watching today. Actually, I stumbled across a funky 2 cut joint episode the other day and then this was recommended by youtube to me. Great tutorial dude. I like watching you, your videos I mean, you doing your videos. After the video, I was really hoping you had something in your collection on how to make repeatable perfect 90 degree cuts on a table saw. And then I saw it, you have this video on how to make a "crossing-cut-sled". I got goosebumps. This is what I've been looking FOR, for so LONG... Im effing with you bro. For real though, I saw your table saw and you built the extension around it. Omg dude, I have the same or similar dewalt table saw and I've been trying to figure a way to add an extension like that. As you know, they didn't make that easy on that model to attach anything or line up anything flush on the sides. I didn't see a video on how you made it so I'm assuming that wasn't a youtube project. But I'm just throwing it out there, lots of people have trouble supporting larger sheets of wood on small table saws. It would be IMO a good future video. I subscribed already hoping to see it. No pressure. you don't, you don't. I'll survive and keep watching. Thanks Tam
@@3x3CustomTamar I just actually watched the video all the way through this time. Haha. It's funny. The next time I revamp my crosscut sled I'm going to revisit it again cause I wish I had saw this one sooner. I don't know how it got lost within the 348 other crosscut sled videos out there, but it did. After a second look, I realized that's actually the same saw as mine. I'm gonna have to search for the walk around though. I guess I assumed it was in that one but it must be in another. (Tam replies 4 hours later after all her videos get another view "Did ya find it yet? It's in the one about..." ) Yeah. I'm good. Found it. thanks. lol
Fantastic, will be making mine asap, love it, and it would be easy to make two or three at different sizes,. after all not many of us use 27 different dowel sizes three would more then cover me. Loving it.
if you want different sizes (bushes) look at the 3 screw in bushes (metric I know 6,8,10,) supplied with the 'cheap' Silverline pocket hole jig (£5.00. UK)
Just finished making your jig. Works great. It’s the first jig I’ve seen on UA-cam that I thought would be useful enough, to take the time to make.
That’s so awesome to hear!!!
David Hooper spline jigs that ride along the table saw fence are well worth the effort. Other then that I agree.
My Name Is Bond yes. It’s on my website.

Yeah, the idea is briliant . Thank you for sharing it . This is the best Doweling jig I have ever seen. I will try to make it .
Awesome. So glad you like it
I typically don't like taking templates from other people (only because I like designing from scratch) but this was too perfect to not use. Thanks for making a good a simple jig - I already love mine.
So awesome to hear! So Glad you like it!
I will definitely be building this jig. I have a plan to do some exposed dowel joinery to recreate a project my grandfather made before I was born. I think it is simple enough that one jig per dowel size would not be that crazy to make. Unless someone suggested a reasonable interchangeable insert for different dowel sizes, I think individual jigs would be easier to do.
Awesome! Hope you like it!
You are amazing. And this jig is fantastic. Recently found your channel and enjoying all you are doing.
Glad you like it. Thanks!
Glad I found your channel. Love that you make these tutorial videos
Awesome! So glad you like it!
I did wonder how you were going to do the holes not on the edge. Very ingenious. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much! Yeah! It was really fun to figure out
That gig is brilliant!!!
Tanks Tamar, you are muy TEACHER!!!
Desde Reynosa Tamaulipas México, GRACIAS amiga!!!
P. D: Tu sonrisa es MARAVILLOSA!!!
Thanks! So awesome to hear!
Hi Tamar, Thank you for providing the template for the Dowel Jig. Thank you for your videos and your woodworking instructions. They are very helpful.
very very very excellent - I will make it -
thank you.
Hey Tam, Just started watching today. Actually, I stumbled across a funky 2 cut joint episode the other day and then this was recommended by youtube to me. Great tutorial dude. I like watching you, your videos I mean, you doing your videos. After the video, I was really hoping you had something in your collection on how to make repeatable perfect 90 degree cuts on a table saw. And then I saw it, you have this video on how to make a "crossing-cut-sled". I got goosebumps. This is what I've been looking FOR, for so LONG... Im effing with you bro. For real though, I saw your table saw and you built the extension around it. Omg dude, I have the same or similar dewalt table saw and I've been trying to figure a way to add an extension like that. As you know, they didn't make that easy on that model to attach anything or line up anything flush on the sides. I didn't see a video on how you made it so I'm assuming that wasn't a youtube project. But I'm just throwing it out there, lots of people have trouble supporting larger sheets of wood on small table saws. It would be IMO a good future video. I subscribed already hoping to see it. No pressure. you don't, you don't. I'll survive and keep watching. Thanks Tam
Hey! Thanks! While I didn’t do a UA-cam video on the build of that table I did do a walk around discussing how I built it! It’s there!
@@3x3CustomTamar I just actually watched the video all the way through this time. Haha. It's funny. The next time I revamp my crosscut sled I'm going to revisit it again cause I wish I had saw this one sooner. I don't know how it got lost within the 348 other crosscut sled videos out there, but it did. After a second look, I realized that's actually the same saw as mine. I'm gonna have to search for the walk around though. I guess I assumed it was in that one but it must be in another. (Tam replies 4 hours later after all her videos get another view "Did ya find it yet? It's in the one about..." ) Yeah. I'm good. Found it. thanks. lol
Fantastic, will be making mine asap, love it, and it would be easy to make two or three at different sizes,. after all not many of us use 27 different dowel sizes three would more then cover me. Loving it.
Awesome! Totally agree! Think I’ll just make one more for smaller dowel
if you want different sizes (bushes) look at the 3 screw in bushes (metric I know 6,8,10,) supplied with the 'cheap' Silverline pocket hole jig (£5.00. UK)
Great concept. Combined with the fact no other woodworkers do a happy dance.... I had to subscribe :-)
Haha! Thanks!
Good afternoon! Thank you very much for the interesting and instructive video!
