This review is conflixting but will hopefully help.This gets the job done. I needed something immediately and the wolfcraft one wasn't available. I've owned the latter before so this is a comparison.KWB needs centres measuring as there is no auto find for the middle widths. Adding to this, I find reading the measurements on the sides of the jig difficult. They are raised using the same plastic, do same colour, obviously from the mould. I've 20/20 vision. The measurements are accurate however. Once understood, the alignment attachment works, however I ended up just using the width of the jig as my measure, to guarantee alignment.None of these are real gripes, it does the job as mentioned.Can be clamped,

Easy to use once you get the hang of it. Makes perfectly perpendicular drilling very easy.At first I was suspicious that such simple tool wouldn't perform as I wanted.Then I realised I was wrong.I used this to fix new wooden steps to house stairs in replacement of carpet.Using a Japanese screwless and nailess method I used dowels to do the job.None of the techniques indication in the manual was adequate for my particular case but getting around the best way wasn't difficult.An instance I managed to drill a second hole half diameter away from first one with no problem, once you manage to secure the tool in position it will let you do what you need.Easy to setup the distance to centre of the

Fantastic gadget for keeping drills straight and square. Just three things to watch out for:First, it can be a bit wobbly on narrow surfaces (eg a strip of wood).Second, it's awkward if you want to use a masonry drill - you have to feed the drill through in reverse as the tip of a (say) 6mm masonry drill won't fit through a 6mm hole.Third, it restricts the depth of the holes you drill - this is particularly bothersome with narrower drills. For example a standard 3mm HSS bit barely sticks out of the bottom of the guide when the bit is seated firmly in the drill chuck.Nonetheless I'd recommend it for accuracy and ease of use.

Great tool : I purchased to enable me to drill and dowel a stripped thread in the lag bolt on my ukulele/banjo neckIt is imperative that you drill the hole for the dowel and then the new bolt perfectly straight : with a hand held drill, this is virtually impossible until I bought this tool .I don’t understand the other review about the adjustment, performing two functions and being a problem. The adjuster locks it all up once you have set where you want the hole drilled and then by default also locks the metal hole size mandril in place.Simple but very effective toolOckham

Works ok but the depth setting could lock better I've had it move out of place , not good for a precision fit. Also the same lock is used for depth and hole size , if you dowel and use insert bolts it makes every joint a performance. With a better lock and a easier to use gauge for measuring the depth setting it would be pretty good. But use it with care, check the setting every time and it is fine just a bit of a fiddle.

I use this as a drill guide to ensure I am going in perpendicularly to the wood. The numerous hole sizes makes it very useful.I also use it to assembly panels with dowels. It is good and it works, but there is no self-centring facility which is common on most dowelling jigs.There is a manufacturers YouTube video that demonstrates its use well.

Not just for dowel drilling. Can be used on any surface and can be secured using a quick clamp or g-clamp

The KWB system makes things easier .The dowel guide can be a bit fiddley but overall I like it
