• Woodpeckers Cam-A-Line Dowel Guide combines variable spacing, precision-engraved centerlines, a robust fence and a versatile stop system to give you the most complete dowelling jig on the market. Unlike other dowelling jigs, you're not limited to a certain dimension between pins and you don't have to try to remember which bushings you used. Just adjust the spacing to your material and go. You have your choice of 4 different guide bushing sizes…1/4", 5/16", 3/8" and 1/2". You can get Cam-A-Line with just one size, or get the Deluxe set, which includes all 4 sizes, extensions for the stop and a wall-mountable Rack-It to keep everything right in plain sight and ready to go to work.
• Cam-A-Line uses a sliding cam system to maintain even spacing between 3 drill guide bushings. You can space the bushings as close as 3/4" center-to-center or spread them out up to 1-3/4" center-to-center. This spacing range lets you have an evenly spaced three-dowel array on a workpiece from 2-1/4" wide up to 5-1/2" wide. You can go narrower than 2-1/4" by using only 2 of the guide bushings and you can go wider than 5-1/2" by using groups of pins.   
• The easiest way to use Cam-A-Line utilizes the engraved centerlines. Just clamp your two boards together exactly where you want them. Strike a line across the joint. Align Cam-A-Line's engraved centerline with the marks on each piece and drill your joint. The holes will line up perfectly and create a joint that rivals loose tenon or mortise and tenon joints for strength and durability. You can use the same process for miter joints, too.
• When you have stacks of similar joints to make, the stop system speeds things up, compared to using a centerline. Once your stop is set, it provides a quick physical reference to locate your work, eliminating aligning the jig to a pencil mark. You can quickly re-index the stop on the other end of the jig to drill the mirror image on your joining piece. 
• Using dowels in edge-glued panels can save hours of hand planing and sanding. The dowels keep the top surface of your panel flat, even when the sections have a little bit of twist or bow. The extension rods for the stop system let you set the spacing between dowel pins wherever you want it.
