I used these as a alternative for my missing dowel pins for my Walmart dresser
I had lost some Dowel pins for my Dresser I got from Walmart and these worked pretty good. They are a little shorter then the original ones I had but they still worked. I put a size comparison with a AAA battery, hopefully it helps!

It was a little smaller in thickness than I expected, but its because the photo on the product page is 'enlarged' I guess. But for the project that we'll be doing this might be just thr size we need.
