The only one I don't have is the doweling jig and I was just looking this week on Amazon at some of the self-centering one's. Pretty cheap around the $40 mark but considering it's not something I currently use a lot in my projects it's a rare use item so no point in spending big bucks.. Mind you I do have a biscuit joiner and a Freud doweler.
I guess a hole punch can be used on all materials, although I thought they were predominantly used for metal work. Don’t all wood bits have a point specifically for centring the bit?
Agreed they were used on metal. Some do have points such as Brad point or forstner bits, but the common drill bit doesn't have a point, and so the punch can help it seat the hole.
Well done! I have 3 of the 5 on your list.
Thank you, they are great tools!

The doweler would be cool. I have a Freud biscuit jointer also 😁
@@TimberDesigns Yup capable of doing 2 at a time , funny part is...I have never used it.
I would love that, but they are very rare to find. Not sure Freud makes them anymore
@@TimberDesigns nope discontinued like all their tools
Such a shame

@@TimberDesigns that’s interesting as I’ve only ever known wood bits with points. Just shows how little I know 😆
We're always learning new things that we may not have known, happens to me all the time 😁
