 Great for heavy duty woodworking January 22, 2007

This jig is extremely easy to use and very accurate. I use it to align thick slabs of oak for benches and tables and alternate dowels and biscuits for a strong joint. It helps align long planks and makes joints easier to make while minimizing sanding.
 Cheap knockoff of the Task Pro June 30, 2007

This is a cheap Chinese knockoff of the USA-made Task Pro Center self-centering doweling jig (Self-centering Doweling Jig with 6 Hardened Drill Bushings). Spend the extra couple of bucks for the real one, and get a tool that will last a lifetime, or save a few bucks on this sweatshop-produced version.

The jig works well and is easy to use. It's not as precise as I had hoped. The holes are not centered as precisely as I would like.
One of the best tools I've ever used May 13, 2007

This jig works like a charm. Everything lines up perfectly. As durable as this looks it'll be one of those tools that my grandkids will still be using 50 years from now.

Having been satisfied with Grizzly machinery & tools in the past, I took a chance on this inexpensive jig. First, the ganged holes on one end are not drilled parallel to each other. Second, holes are not bored squarely to the face. Third, the clamping action is so sloppy that it can't center itself perfectly every time.
I could go on, but you get the point. This is a less expensive copy of a much better jig on the market. I shimmed mine with masking tape until it is useful. Still, I must shake my head and laugh at myself for buying this.
