The Veritas 3/8" dowel cutter can be used two ways. Using it like a hand-held pencil sharpener, you can put accurate tenons on the tips of turnings or on rustic furniture components. The cutter can also be used with a power feed to make accurate dowelling.

Most commercial dowelling is milled, not turned, and is never perfectly round and seldom accurately sized. Using a hand drill for power, you need only cut square stock slightly oversize (1/16" over is ample) and use a square socket to power the stock through the dowel cutter. The carbon-steel blade in the plated zinc-alloy body is adjustable.
Works equally well in soft, green or hard woods. The curved blade is relatively easy to sharpen when required. An optional straight blade for cutting tapered tenons and four-sided square sockets are available separately.
