Dowel Joint Strength Testing

How strong are dowel joints? See for yourself with this dowel joint torture test.

Use better glue or apply it in a better manner so the dowel doesn't pull out and you'll surely see 150+.

In this joint and force I’d go with a bridal joint for strength.

Great looking workshop.

Thanks for the kind words! My shop isn't big, but I certainly do enjoy it.
Drop by my website baileylineroad.com for a visit sometime. You'll find lots of stuff there, including tool giveaways, articles and videos of interest to hands-on, how-to people.
Bye for now and thanks for watching!
