I am ordering parts for a project I am working on, a German Work Box (rolling tool cabinet). The plan uses Miller Dowels to hold butt joints, 3/4" plywood, together. I have never used these dowels but like the idea of using wood instead of metal fasteners and though it would be a good chance to try them out. I know Lee Valley, Highland Woodworking and several other well respected woodworking suppliers have carried them for quite a while. I mentioned them in a post about drawboring trying to draw out some comments on them, but did not find anyone using them for that job. I am trying to get the rest of my parts, all of which Lee Valley has, ordered during the free shipping period.
Apparently the basic set comes with Birch pegs and the drill bit. The pegs come in three different sizes and four different woods. I was thinking about trying out the oak pegs. I am hoping some fellow posters have used them and can offer some sage advise on how well they work and which sizes and woods might be preferable.
