Exhumed my trusty ol' Stanley 59 dowel jig from beneath a mountain of miscellany. I then end-drilled 18 spindles (stiles?) and 4 rails. (Those little thingies make up a nice visual at each end of the coffee table I'm making. It's a bit mission style-ish. IIIIIIIII
I became downright nostalgic. My first large kitchen project was done with it...I used it to make the face-frames. Sure it's a bit 'manual'... one hole at the time, but they're RIGHT where I want them plus-minus nuttin'! Annnnd.. with a PilotPoint DeWaltDisney drill bit (3/8) an absolute buttery experience. Clean, perfect holes.
So I had a thought (Yayayaya, shit happens).... Take my plate joiners, my K3 Kreg.. but leave me this little nugget. Stanley 59.
As long as I don't feel any neanderness washing over me, I'm still okay, right? :)
