Hygloss Products Wooden Dowel Rods - Unfinished Natural Wood Sticks - 1/2 x 12 Inches, 10 Pack

Good product for the money and exact dimensions.

The dowels for my daughter's bunk bed got lost in a move. These were easy to cut to the perfect height. Very sturdy.

Purchased 3/4" size. I realize that wood swells and shrinks, and that's great for the 3 of 10 that are around actual 0.745, but 3 of them are all the way down at 0.715" diameter. The rest are around 0.730-0.735.finish and dryness is very consistent among them and they seem high quality if dimensional accuracy isn't important to you. Since I purchased to be interchangeable 3/4" pegs in 0.750" holes I'm not sure what I'm going to do. May try to soak in oil or drive a screw in the end to swell them up? or may just turn them all down to 11/16.

They're wooden dowel rods. What can you say about wooden dowel rods? They're made out of wood and they're rods. Bout sums it up!

.735 is not .750. When filling a 3/4" hole, .735 doesn't have enough surface wood contact for a strong glue joint. These dowels are not high quality.

I have actually ordered these a few times now, and have been impressed each time. The quality is very high, the measurements are precise, and coloring is very similar between all the dowels. I have used these for a few different projects, and will continue to use them as the need arises.

I was looking for some type of stakes to shore up some Christmas cactuses that are growing very large and drooping. I have covered the dowel sticks with aluminum foil to protect them from the watering and they have worked wonderfully well to prop up the drooping limbs.

Perfect for making this Disney flash pin banner.
