So I'm building a farm house table for a customer and I'm doing a bread board look. Looking for the best way to attach them up as it will be a long grain to end grain glueing surface. I bought a dowel jig from Lee Valley with the intention of using dowels to increase my glue surface. I'm just a little worried that dowel may not be strong enough. Looking for either reassurance, if the dowels are an ok way to go, or another way to go. I could borrow a biscuit joiner if that would be better but I'd prefer to use the dowels if they will work. Thanks for the input.
