Which dowel jig did you go with for the $60? Curious if you used the same jig on the stiles and rails or if you clamped a spacer for the offset. Been meaning to try dowels on my next frame but the setup time scares me a bit.

The water rabbit hole is real, I filter mine now too and it changed everything.

How big is the stair stringer and what size bolts are you using? That 3/16" overlap makes sense at 1/8" because a line weight on screen hides what a real edge would show. For steel connections with bolts I never go below 1/2" = 1'-0" for the detail view itself, and I keep the plan at 1/4" so the two sheets line up when I check them side by side. The printed template on your monitor is a solid habit, and I would add one more: draw the bolt holes at their true size and let them clip if they want to. The clash shows up right there on screen instead of in a phone call. I still catch stuff the fabricator finds first, but true size holes have saved me more than once.
