How to Make Round Hardwood Dowels with a Block Plane| Traditional Joinery for My Hand Tool Workbench

Описание: Description:
In this video, I’ll show you how I make round dowels from hardwood using nothing more than a block plane and some patience. These custom dowels are perfect for traditional woodworking joinery, and I’ll be using them to build strong dowel joints for my custom hand tool workbench.

Making your own dowels by hand is a rewarding skill for any woodworker—especially if you’re focused on hand tool woodworking and want to create joinery that’s both functional and authentic. Store-bought dowels don’t always fit perfectly, and they’re not always cut from the best grain. By shaping them yourself, you can choose the right species, ensure long grain strength, and size them exactly how you need.

Whether you’re building a workbench, furniture, or just practicing hand tool techniques, this method works great with hardwoods and gives you complete control over your joinery. Grab your block plane and let’s make some dowels!
