Accuracy of assembly should now be assured. Once this has been achieved, assembly of the base board can proceed. It is only at this stage that the pieces of wood should be planed accurately to size as if they were a single piece of wood. Clamp the two pieces together, using the dowels to locate them in the correct position. Remove the surplus female dowel halves and replace with male ones. Repeat the process with each of the dowel locations.
I have found it helpful to use an 8 mm drill bit to make a hole through the two pieces of wood to be joined, before they have been accurately cut to size, then remove the drill bit from the drill, insert it into one of the holes & thread a female dowel half onto it before drilling the 3 screw holes. Extremely well made, to exacting tolerances (although the "brass" of the screws appears to be electro-plating) screws could afford to be longer & instructions for fitting are brief and the recommended method of installation is possibly not the best.
