I just wanted to post this to everyone reading this newsgroup, as I
have gotten a lot of good tips here myself. Most doweling type jigs I
have seen use the 1/2-20 threaded bushings. Rockler has the bushings
in small packs that I felt were a little expensive.
I recently bought and used some from http://www.hfwilson.com . They
are hardened and work great. I my case I mostly use 1/4", but they
have 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" available. You can get 3
packs, 10 packs, and 25 packs. Price is pretty reasonable. There
1/4" stock number is 06112 (3-pack). There phone number is
888-HFWILSON.
I have no affiliation with the company, just very happy to have
purchased their bushings, and they work great! Thx.
