A dowel is a solid cylindrical rod, usually made of wood, plastic, or metal. In its original manufactured form, a dowel is called a ''dowel rod''. Dowel rods are often cut into short lengths called ''dowel pins''. Dowels are employed in numerous, diverse applications including as axles in toys, detents (e.g., in gymnastics grips), structural reinforcements in cabinet making, and supports for tiered wedding cakes. Other uses include: * As furniture shelf supports * As moveable game pieces (i.e., pegs) * As supports for hanging items such as clothing, key rings, tools, toilet roll dispensers and picture frames * To precisely align two objects in a ''dowel joint'': a hole is bored in both objects and the dowel pin is inserted into the aligned holes * As a core to wrap cable or textiles around ==Wood dowel== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「dowel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
