I have the other self centering doweling jig that opens to 2" but the legs on my project required 2 1/4". It worked great. I did not have any trouble with aligning the jig. It is fast and easy. It has cut at least two days off of this project compared to using mortise and tenon joinery. It may not be as strong but the last crib I made with dowels is still holding together. I used brad point bits to do the drilling. It does wear the bits out faster but I can't imagine what the job would be like without this jig. It was well worth the price I paid for it. I also use it to align the threaded inserts that I use for fastening the bed sides. There is no doubt that my inserts will line up with the bolts. I also used it to align the four inch wide top and subtop parts to the headboard and footboard. It takes the guess work out of centering. Only one measurement needed, make your mark and drill your hole.
