1X MILLER DOWEL JOINERY KIT
You might want to call them wooden nails, but Miller Dowels are better. The stepped shoulders make them fast and accurate to install and the ridged pin design gives glue extra holding power that a traditional dowel cannot match. They automatically re-align the mating pieces should they shift after drilling the pilot hole. Their lateral resistance is very similar to that of a nail or screw.

1X Miller Dowel Joinery Kit w/ 50 Birch Dowels & 1TF Drill Bit #B12D11- Kit
Stepped dowels presents a new approach to good old dowel joints. The result is the unique, step-sided Miller Dowel. It holds a joint together in a fashion similar to a standard dowel but, offers some distinct advantages. The stepped drill bit bores a clean hole and prevents the mating boards from separating as you drill, thanks to the shoulders that apply downward pressure. The dowel drops about 2/3 of the way into the hole without binding, making installation easier. Small gaps created at each...

Small Miller Dowel Kit (Model 1X)
The two-part system consists of a stepped hardwood dowel and matching HSS (high-speed steel) drill bit. The great advantage of stepped dowels is easy insertion with minimal glue stripping since there is no scouring effect until they are three-quarters in. Excess dowel is trimmed and sanded flush. The dowels, available in birch, cherry, oak and walnut, are ribbed to provide greater surface area for adhesive.

1X Stepped Dowel Kit
Peg construction traditionally involves the difficult task of driving a pin dowel into a hole that is just as tight at the top as it is at the bottom. Not only do you have to use a hammer from the very beginning, but it only gets tougher as you get deeper. The Miller dowel is inserted 75% by hand because of the relationship of the dowel shape to its pilot hole. You get better holding strength, and it's easier to tap in. Another advantage of inserting the dowel through the top board is simply...
