Badmotivator doweling Jig

[andystanton74]

Wasnt sure if this was the right area to post this but thought i would start here. I have been making barrels for a while now and have had pretty good success. I have always had a little trouble placing the dowels perfectly to get the boards to line up with no step off which can make cutting the round more difficult. Most of the doweling jigs out there assume a square rectangle of equal thickness. When making these barrels the toasted side is warped and so makes one face not flat which can make using a doweling jig difficult. I got a 3d printer recently and designed a doweling jig specifically for making these barrels. You will still need 3 square edges and a square crosscut edge for the jig to work properly but you don't need a shaper or router table to make a tongue and groove joint. The dimensional accuracy is quite good. I designed it specifically using the staves sold by badmotivator legacy barrels. I also make a template to assist in laying out where you will cut the barrel head in the square and then once its cut you can use it to find the center line for your spigot and bung. Was curious to see what people thought about this idea and if you think people would be willing to pay money for it. Thanks for the feedback
