A time honored method of installation.

I started out a few decades ago using dowels, a hand drill and a
drilling jig. Loved dowels and found them to be quite an asset to
strength, but time consuming for multiple dowels to be used in a fit

Ballard Hardware in Seattle, they started out servicing the fishing
boats. They had an old building about 7-8 stories, old wood floors

Thanks, I would probably just use it with one bit, since

I looked at the beadlock and dowelmax, but neither offer
