About this deal

Welcome to Bradfords Building Supplies – your trusted local trade Builders Merchant since 1770, providing building supplies throughout the South West; Wiltshire, Somerset, Dorset, Devon, Cornwall and even into Hertfordshire and Worcestershire! I certainly wouldn't use it in situations where only 1-2 dowels can fit and wouldn't use it in high stress situations like joining chair pieces, but for wider rail/stile applications like simple frames I wouldn't be worried about failures. I know they can be a little tricky to align by hand, but a hand made jig or commercial jig solves that issue. Some mention it's a great machine and seems solid enough, while others say that it'd be better for professional use, extremely poorly made, and felt cheap.

I was recently at a restaurant at an inn that I had built all the tables for in the mid 80s, 2 tops, 4 tops, and 6 tops, 20-25 in all (can't remember the exact number), mahogany with turned pedestal and curved legs, all assembled using floating tenons, with mortises cut with a router, and all joints in like-new condition after nearly 40 years. These handheld tools have metal gearings with adjustable height fences and multiple turret stops for biscuit size selection. I think dowels would be fine, but I'd personally go for half laps and then secure everything with some beefy bolts. The guide fences are not square, the alignment scribes in the viewing window are inaccurate, the worst element though is the arbors are at different depth settings. The Cordless Dowelling Jointer TWOO ABB400 is a testament to VirutexTools' commitment to innovation, quality, and user convenience.Not that I have either but the domino has a bit of slack in it to allow for any miss alignment but a dowel would have to be spot on. The worst part is that the casting lines are not inline with the drill bits, and that the tool lines for dowelling seem out. The Triton TDJ600 Dowelling Jointer delivers double dowel drilling with 710W motor and 32mm spacing. I don't know if it would be good enough for a professional cabinet maker but this is a great little machine for what I need it to do and. This not only speeds up the assembly process but also ensures a high level of accuracy in every joint.

If you prefer to make your purchase payment via online banking by bacs/chaps transfer payment , contact us to assist you. It takes a bit of practice to get the jig to stay steady and drill carefully, but it's certainly cheaper than a Festool.

However accuracy is key with dowels and as there's no slop to accommodate misalignment issues (as with a biscuit jointer) it is not really a tool for free handing with. Ten mm Dominos (the largest on the DF 500) are a bit thicker than the 5/16” dowels, so some extra strength there.
