Default Any Opinions on this?

To me, the greatest lack of capability that this particular tool
carries, is the fact that you can't cut a slightly wider mortise with
it (as you can with a Domino) and adjust the sideways fit when you're
gluing up your project. In other words, with this doweling jointer,
you have to be absolutely correct with placement or it's going to be
screwed up.

To me, anyway, I think that's a glaring lack of capability. I'd
suggest you will get a more informed opinion from some users who
actually have used the tool.


Interesting. So you want an expensive, precise boring tool that still
allows you to be sloppy in your assembly? I thought that was one of the
most coveted features of the Domino-- the ability to cut mortises that
lined up precisely with one another.
