Guide to Wood Joints
Anyone who has ever joined boards of wood with
round dowels and no further assistance certainly
knows that moment of suspense when the boards
are put together and the crucial question arises:
does it fit or doesn‘t it?
The probability of a perfect fit without the use of
suitable dowelling aids is about as good as the
chances of winning the jackpot in the lottery. For
this reason, we at wolfcraft
®
have occupied our-
selves for decades with the development and
production of dowelling aids which make it pos-
sible to create perfect, precisely fitting dowel joints.
However, these products are intended not only to
function precisely but at the same time to be sim-
ple to use.
We have written this Guide for you, to give you an
idea of just how easy our dowelling aids are to use.
Over 25 pages, showing you step by step every thing
you need to know on the subject of wood joints.
Numerous photographs and many tips and tricks
for the different dowelling devices make this Guide
the ideal reference work. It should find a permanent
place in your home workshop so that you are ide-
ally equipped for all your home handicraft projects,
and so that in future you will be able to make wood
joints like a professional.
We wish all interested home craftsmen and rea-
ders of this Guide great pleasure and success in
making wood joints with wolfcraft
®
products.
