wolfcraft Dowel master (part no. 4640000)

[@jamesemery7278]

I have just used this jig for the first time and it was faultless, the instructional video is excellent covering most common joints, considering the cost of the dowelmaster against other makes Jessem , dowelmax etc for the non professional it's a no brainer £17 against £200 for the dowelmax as I mentioned, unless you are a professional woodworker get the dowelmaster you won't be disappointed, well done wolfcraft!

[@wolfcraft_com]

Dear James Emery, we are very happy to hear that. Thank you for your positive feedback and have fun with our products! Best wishes JKa

[@michaellewis9433]

Thank you for posting this. I bought one of these and it’s fantastic, this helped explain how to use it very clearly.

[@nickwales2667]

Just bought this product and was struggling to understand the instruction leaflet so very glad this video is up, thanks!

[@wolfcraft_com]

Hello Jack, thank you very much for your feedback. The Dowel master is not a trivial thing, that's for sure. But once you get the hang of it, it is a great helper! :) Best regards, your wolfcraft Team

[@bolti1000]

This tool is brilliant. You HAVE to have one if you are doing this type of joint. Practice first on some scrap bits and then once proven you are away - and it’s so fast with great accurate joints. Bolti

[@MrTruth111]

I bought this last week, it is a great product, however it is not easy for diyers with little experience like myself.My dowels were a bit out of angle, about 2 degrees. Clamped connection of your work to a workbench or workmate is essential. And my depthstop I bought was a bit to wide and made contact with the curved side alongside the drillhole on the dowelmaster. But this can be fixed be removing the green part of the guide or moving it slightly. Great product! My first attempt made a good edge to edge connection and it was completely flat. I joined two timber panels on the long side, two metres in length and 30mm x 200mm dimension.

[@mykehoole5787]

I’ve ordered one of these jigs and it’s arriving today. I’m looking forward to using it on many projects.

[@wolfcraft_com]

We hope you will enjoy it. :) All the best, your wolfcraft Team

[@wolfcraft_com]

The lenght of the dowel is 40mm. In order to provide some space for the glue on each side 1 mm is additionally needed. So the connection has maximum strength.

[@dteteruk]

Just bought this tool, manual with photos on a package is not so clear as this video. Thanks for it!

[@deathbef]

This tool is beautiful, so simple and powerful ;-) I spent a while looking for something like that. I am going to do some DIY work - workbench and other simple items - and I am still collecting all essential tools. I do not have too much experience, but I believe it is very hard to put both holes for each dowel straight. Dowelmaster sounds like a good tool for a good price. And no, I am not paid from Wolfcraft it is just spontaneous reaction ;-)

i just bought this tool, worth every penny. (green stopper should be thicker for better handling and positioning)

[@patrickarchuleta9594]

The black and blue clamps look like good clamps are they wolfcraft

[@Vulkanexpress]

"To draw the top a little bit back" is to get a 2-3 mm safety distance. It is important that the Dowelmaster with the green stopper is in contact with the bottom board only down and not with the top, otherwise the corner connection would not flush. Therefore, you move the top board "a little" backwards (about 2mm)!

[@jaceneliot]

I don't understand why...

[@Senzeni]

@@jaceneliotAbsolutely not needed. It's just a perfect way to mess up your board alignment. If you use it to align the boards, it will still be flush and butting against the top board will ensure it stays there (we don't all have the perfectly straight drill bits so it can shake).

[@smithchasea]

@@Senzeni, that is what I was thinking. Moving the boat back is a great way to mess up the alignment.

In the twinkleing of an eye Supporting surfers Deter-mind Wood sickness This is gold!

[@pj2123]

Good tool, but this was our first time using the jig and our timber was 40mm thick, at 4.50 in the video our jig would not sit flat on the base to drill the matching holes because of the height of the dowel was tipping it, we didn't notice this at first and ended up with wonky holes! We had to put a thin piece of hardboard below the jig to align everything before drilling.

[@vildisvildis]

[@georgepiper8852]

I always regarded this type of work only for the professional but after purchasing this gadget and watching the video I am absolutely delighted.

[@cloth0077]

I needed this video! Thank you for making it 👍

[@philozz5909]

Why slide the piece back at 5:07? Doesn't this random and imprecise movement (what is that, 1mm? 2mm?) affect the accuracy of the finished piece?

[@sefard777]

I've bought one of these and the instructions were not as clear. This video helps a lot. What workbench was used in the video?

[@wolfcraft_com]

[@originaltechman]

Brilliant product and an even better video, thank you

[@stephennorris7924]

I've got one of these but i am unable to use it because the screw knob on the top does not hold the stop in place.

[@allanmanley6340]

Is it possible to make a "double dowel" with the Wolfmaster?

[@abbbee8918]

What is the distance between a fully withdrawn ‘stop’ and the centre of the drilling hole. I need to use it to join 45mm thick boards, so obviously hoping the distance will be at least 22.5mm. Obviously my board is too thick for the auto centring method.

[@jaceneliot]

Hi ! 3:24, how do you know where to put the dowl master ? I want my holes 2cm from the side, but i don't see anything who help me to be precise...

[@dkovacs]

I purchased this tool and am very happy with it. Quality German engineering!

[@wolfcraft_com]

The model you might mean is still up to date. It is part of a kit with some additional accesories and a certain price advantage than the model shown in the video.

[@wolfcraft_com]

[@magedhanna518]

This can't be used in a 45 degrees cuts, isn't it?

[@wolfcraft_com]

The marking itself is not necessary - it is done demonstrate the way how the product works. It has no influence soever, as the precision is defined through the preadjusted fence. The guidance is done through the dowel pin. So the pull back action has absolut no influence on the precision!

[@bernardcharvier3422]

[@windowsgeek2256]

Can this jig join 2 pieces one at 45 degrees to the other? I don't know the terminology for a joint like this but it's the a hangman's gibbet (cross piece). If so can anyone explain how to achieve this?

[@wolfcraft_com]

Dear Gordon, please have a look on the operation instructions: www.wolfcraft.de/uploads/tx_commerce/4640_NEU_NACH2005.PDF Therein you will find the operation description for different joints, such as corner joints and T-joints. Best your wolfcraft Social Media Team

[@windowsgeek2256]

wolfcraft Thank you for your reply,. However the joint which I need to achieve is not described in the instructions. In the hangman’s gibbet there is a cross piece which has a 45 deg. at either end which attaches to the other 2 pieces and it is this cross piece which I would like to join with dowels. I’m sure the Dowelmaster can achieve this joint but I don’t know how. Your help would be gratefully appreciated.

[@wolfcraft_com]

Dear Gordon, our technical service says: The dowel device can unfortunately not be used at 45 ° connections. These compounds are performed at joiner with Lamello connections and Lamello dowels. Good luck anyway! Best, your wolfcraft social media team

[@patmos72]

What does it mean "draw the top little bit back" ? What kind of measure is that?

[@kaelinlariviere6523]

Dario Patmos exactly what I was thinking, and why do it?

[@mrarticulateyep]

I assume its to make sure that the stop on the bottom of the jig is firmly in place against the edge of the wood.

[@rjamsbury1]

Dario Patmos: you've already got the depth set so you just need to engage the dowel to get the alignment right. Drawing it back a bit prevents random chips from throwing the depth placement out

[@bigdenroy]

excellent tools. better and simpler

[@kennychall]

very good understandable video thankyou very much, great help for me in my work shop.

[@wolfcraft_com]

We are pleased that we could help you with our video. Best wishes

[@Bob_Burton]

I have just bought this tool and I am glad that I found this video because the instructions supplied for making end to end joints are wrong. They miss out the step where the guide is adjusted before making the holes on the second board. The step is there for corner joints but not for end to end joints.

[@anonimguy71]

what price your acquisition ?

[@ppdan]

Buy metric drills and if you cannot find metric dowels you could still make them yourself, there are plenty of videos showing how to make you own dowels ;)

[@kevincuthbert3058]

Why roll the top a little bit back as advised, surely it is in the correct position.

[@matttreerat8673]

My thoughts exactly. I have never moved the top clamped piece back and it's always been spot on. Also I have never glued the dowels into one section first before drilling the adjoining piece. This gives you a bit more room to adjust if you're a bugs hair out on alignment. Clamp well on doing the t-joints with high gloss/smooth panels. As the top section can slide back a few mm if you're not careful with keeping the drill bit straight in the jig. It's a good bit of kit that I'm now using too build a 2.5 meter wardrobe. Everything is spot on so far just keep the above tips in mind, double check and you be ok.

[@kevincuthbert3058]

@@matttreerat8673 I’m guessing it may be that it looks okay if the corner sits in a mm or so but looks off if it sits out ( overlaps). I’ve tried it and a slight roll back did work better but then it comes down to judgement and the jig is supposed to make that unnecessary. Good luck with your project.

[@lilhyena7534]

@@matttreerat8673 what length dowels should i use for 16 mm smooth board? and what would be the distribution of the depth for corner/t joints?

[@matttreerat8673]

@@lilhyena7534 Dowel thickness should be no less than 1/3 and no more than 1/2 the thickness of the board. So you're good for 6mm or 8mm dowels. I spaced them 6 inch / 150mm apart. With the end ones I had the jig flush with the end of the board, so roughly 3 inch. For t-joints depth using 30mm long dowels I drilled 12mm deep on the flat surface and 20mm into the end of the the other board. Use a drill stop or tape around the drill bit to make sure you don't punch through on the flat surface. Take into consideration the point depth if using a brad point drill bit. Knock a few bits of scrap wood together to see how you do before you go all in on your project. You can always use confirmat screws and a dedicated step drill bit by trend if you don't fancy the dowel route. Hope that helps, if in doubt google it.
