About
This free 3D print dowel pin generator creates simple custom cylindrical pins for alignment, indexing, registration, fixtures, woodworking jigs, assembly aids, and prototype joinery. Instead of hunting for an odd diameter or trimming stock by hand, you can generate a dowel pin with the exact printed diameter and length your project needs.
Printable dowel pins are useful for fit testing holes, aligning laser-cut or CNC-made parts, creating removable locating pins, and building quick shop fixtures with PLA, PETG, or tougher engineering filaments. Export STL or 3MF files and send them to PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, Cura, or OrcaSlicer for rapid custom hardware iteration.
