25PCS Wooden Dowel Rods and 25PCS Dowel Caps, 1/4 Diameter x 12 Length Cake Dowel Rods Wooden Lollipops and 1 Diameter with 1/4 Hole Wood Dowel Caps for Crafts and DIYers (Set of 50)

These dowels and caps were just what I needed!

Don’t fit together

The dowels weren’t really my objective, but turned out to be a bonus! Really convenient for holding dowel caps while painting them. A couple of dowel cap holes were smallish and on dowel cap was poorly finished and needed to be sanded. Overall; excellent purchase for the very low price compared to other similar items.

The dowels and holes were advertised as 1/4 inch. They are actually 3/16 inch. I know it does not seem like a loi, but it makes a big difference in the strength of the dowels.

Many of the end caps don’t fit the dowel rods. Will have to throw out most of the pack.

As described good it worked for my project

Not all of them fit quite right. I’m not annoyed that I had to assemble them at all. I’m just concerned that some were very hard to fit in, and some fell right out. So some inconsistency there. But I knew I would have to glue them on anyway, so I can deal. Overall, they work.
