The answer below seems pretty good, but if this is a 4' span with supports only at the end, a 3/4" oak dowel will bend significantly. How is the dowel being supported/hung? | |

Just as in shelving the total weight is important to know but how it is distributed is also a critical factor, as is the number and spacing of supports. In theory if you had, say, three supports you could use a dowel a lot thinner (possibly half the diaeter) than if you only had one support either end. | |
