I made an universal dowel jig several months ago. This jig is based in the front portion of a biscuit joiner, domino, doweller,... ut to used with a regular hand drill. this universal dowel jig akes it very easy to drill holes for dowels very accurate, easy and fast. A lot faster than regular dowel jigs on the market wich are very slow in use. In the first version of this universal dowel jig I used a wood block as a drill guide, but even the hard wood wore out too quickly to drill accurate holes. I tried a few methods of making a metal bushings, this was the best method. This allows to change the quide for different drill and dowel sizes very quickly. Basicly I just made my own guide bushing exactly like the commercial dowel jigs. Also used Matthias Wandel's method for custom wood taps and I make my own dowels to fit the hole perfectly.
