Customer Reviews
Master craftsman Dale Nish taught me how to make an amazing wood hinge for boxes. A wooden dowel is cut into segments, a shallow hole is drilled in the center of each dowel and a small pin is inserted into the hole for the dowel segments to pivot on. I've made thousands of boxes using this style of hinge and I have designed four jigs to precisely drill the hole in the center of dowel segments (the most difficult task).

Merci Mr Cosman.
J'ai découvert les charnières construites en bois à travers vos vidéos et j'ai été passionné. J'ai donc acheté les articles nécessaires pour construire une boîte. Les articles sont impeccables. Par contre la réalisation demande une parfaite maîtrise de l'ébénisterie qu'il faudra acquérir avec la pratique. J'en suis à ma deuxième boîte et j'ai déjà constaté du progrès.
Je recommande fortement ces articles pour ce type de travail.
Great company, Great product does the job perfectly excellent Quality tools!!
It is well made and does exactly what it's supposed to.
I’ve been using a home made jig to center drill my dowels for wood hinges for the past couple of years, it worked OK, but it was no where near as convenient, repeatable and easy to adjust as this.
It is thoughtfully designed, and excellently machined & finished - I expect to be using it for years to come!
I decided on the 3/8” version to suit my existing dowel cutter and router bits, so I had to place the order from Rob directly rather than a UK based company, but the postage was very reasonable.
Rob left me a voicemail thanking me for my purchase and an expected dispatch date - a very nice touch!
Excited to receive my next order!
a well engineered jig that works perfectly for drilling centre of dowels
