Pro tip: label your dowel jig parts before a German Shepherd "helps" you assemble a face frame
Last Saturday in my garage in Boise I had 14 dowels laid out for a cherry face frame when my neighbor's dog bolted in and scattered them across the floor like confetti. Took me 40 minutes to sort the 8mm from the 10mm by eye, and I mixed up two rails that I had to re-bore. Does anyone actually keep a magnet tray on the bench for this, or am I just asking for round two?

scattered them across the floor like confetti" is exactly how it always goes, and it's the same reason I keep my drill bits in a labeled block instead of loose in a drawer. Small systems save you when the chaos hits, whether it's a dog or just gravity.
