Wood Dowels
There’s a certain satisfaction in a joint that pulls together clean and stays there. Wood dowels are a big part of how that happens: aligning cabinet faces, reinforcing furniture joints, plugging screw holes so the finish looks untouched. Nixa Hardware & Seed Co stocks ramin hardwood dowel rods in multiple diameters and lengths, fluted dowel pins, birch and oak button plugs, and joining biscuits. If you’re not sure what size you need, bring a piece of what you’re working with. We’ll figure it out.

How To Find The Center Of A Wood Dowel
Using a dedicated center-finding gauge is the quickest way to mark the middle without guessing and checking. You just slide the tool over the end of the round, draw a line, rotate it ninety degrees, and draw another one where they intersect. We’ve found that even if you don’t have a fancy jig for your Wood Dowels, you can use a square and a flat surface to achieve the same result with a little more patience. Getting that point exactly right is the difference between a wobbly repair and a joint that lasts for generations. It only takes a second to do it right, but it saves us an hour of fixing mistakes later.
