Dowel Joint Strength
June 27, 2008
Today must be dowel day. I’ve always been a big fan of dowels because you don’t need any special equipment to make the joint (like a biscuit cutter, joiner, etc.). I always wondered how strong their ultimate yield was, and I found a great video on the subject. All the modern furniture plans from Plan Canvas use dowels, now I know just how strong those joints are!
