I also like the aesthetic of them and use them quite often in my work. I often make my own with my Lie Nielsen dowel plate but sometimes use a product called Miller Dowel system. It involves a stepped drill bit and they carry a few assorted sizes and species of dowels. Lee Valley carries them so if you like using dowels in your work then you may want to give them a try. thanks for the comment and keep well. Tom Richard,

This sharpening bench is beautiful. I am glad to hear someone else still uses dowels to make joints. I thought I was the only one left. Thank you, Richard Seabrease Gettysburg, PA Tom,
