  • Patent number: 5947652
    Abstract: A face frame dowel apparatus is disclosed that is accurate, simple to use and easily transported to remote locations. Two positioning blocks are secured parallel to each other and sandwiched about a smaller spacer block in such a manner so as to form a U-shaped channel for receiving work pieces to be dowelled. The spacer block contains one or more sets of dies to guide the drill bit during drilling of pilot holes for dowels. The apparatus is secured to the work piece by pressure asserted by a securing means such as a platen-like device perpendicular to and transversing one of the positioning blocks. Another embodiment of the invention includes a reciprocated guide useful in drilling shelf holes. The guide is attached to the positioning block opposite that containing the securing means, and reciprocated by means of allen screws.
