This is a great product and offers you piece of mind when drill those dowel holes. I agree with the other review though; I wouldn't have minded paying a touch more for a case to keep them organized. The bore size seems to be correct. I've only used two of them so far. They slid on very well, demonstarting to me that they were manufactured to within a set of very high standards. They locked on very well and have never slid out of position while working with them.

They work like they're supposed to. Bore size is good, not too much tightening required. Set screw stays tight. Appear to be bullit-proof & american made to boot. I would like to see them come with a case though & wouldn't mind paying another buck or two for it.

The product works just fine. Make sure you put the screw to the correct position.
I found the same model product is much cheaper at HomeDepot.

These perform as expected. If you are not trying to be too precise, and you just want to know how deep you're drilling, a rubber band around your drill bit does the same job for essentially no money.

I bought this tool to help along with drilling the proper depth of hole for the size dowel being used. The tool worked as advertised, but a little organizing box would have been nice....

Good drill stop assortment and decent price. The set screws work well and do not damage drill bits if you don't try to over tighten.
Warning: don't lose the little Allen wrench, it is a very small size that you may not have a spare of in your tool box.

It goes on easy, but know matter how I tried I couldn't get it to tighten perpendiclur to the bit, which makes it of know use to me.
