Screws vs dowels
Subject
Disclaimer:
I build "Brick Outhouses", not "Fine Furniture".
Use dowels to pin corner box joints on boat hatches and M/T joints on
furniture.
Do my best to avoid either dowels or fasteners; however, if required,
use S/S, coarse thread, sheet metal, self tapping screws followed by
plugs in typical yacht fashion. (Yes, keep a plug cutter handy)
