Have anyone seen or had any experiences with the corner dowel kit shown in the AD? It looks good, but does not say if it requires a special drill or if you must drill from both sides to prevent splits or chips when the drill exits. Another question: Can it be used on picture frames?

From the album: Steam Bending Wood
The dowels are drilled in and in place. No glue for the entire box. -
Soo, Bought a 1x6x48" plank of pine. Lowes finest.. Handsaw to cut to the length needed. Coping saw to cut the supports out of the waste. #78 plane to cut a rebate on each end, to house the supports. Drill a few holes, two were for a dowel rod. Added a metal bracket in the middle, to help hold the shelf while I installed it.. Picture was a puzzle we put together, then glued up. Might get a frame...someday.. Some of the screw holes needed a pilot hole, like on the corners. Glued and screwed, a push drill to make the pilot holes, first. A spade bit to make the deeper ones in the supports. A 3" long screw was then driven into the King studs on each side. just a pine project...
