Texas Stars: Angles, Jigs, & New Joinery Method -Wood Working

In this tutorial, I will showcase a DIY dowel jig, reminiscent of the renowned Kreg pocket hole jig, but with a unique twist. Watch as I bring life into scrap pieces of wood, transforming them into captivating Texas stars that will adorn your living spaces with rustic charm and elegance.
Detailed information on angles, jigs, stain, and assembly. I use an entirely new way of assembling these 5 point stars using a custom jig. It's similar to a pocket hole jig but I do NOT use pocket hole screws. I use dowels instead, which make a much stronger joint. But not just any dowels, I'll be using budget-friendly bamboo skewers instead.
Does your miter saw only go to 45 Degrees? Not a problem! This star was designed to be cut on miter saws that don't got past 45 degrees. An easy and convenient way to make Texas stars.
Making precise cuts is very important in order to making your stars fit together properly with tight miter joints and no gaps. But don't worry if you can't get it the first time, I also talk about common mistakes and how to fix them.
There are several ways to make Texas Stars. Here is a link to a playlist of all the wooden stars I've made and the different approaches I've used:
