Well if you go to my YouTube channel and watch the desk build you’ll see i used my Domino. Well here is the finished product

The desk looks great Jeff. I haven’t taken the time to figure out the attachments yet either, I’m sure they are all useful ….. just need more shop time :)

Well i have used my domino but i ran into some issues i cannot figure out. I used the repeatability attachments and set both of the at the 100 mark. Started from the same side on both boards and by the time i ended the holes did not match up. I had to go through and recut or change the setting to open the hole wider for them to come together. I also had to plug the the hole next to the new location of the donino so it would be a solid tendon. Well this was my first time using it. So i have a lot to learn as any new tool. But i do have to say i do love it. I’ll be practicing with it after i finish the two projects i have going. Ill include some puctures

that is very cool. i need to finish up the refinishing project before starting the desk for my daughter. I will be using mine on the desk build. I am glad you had success with your domino. awesome! looks great!

Hey Jeff
I broke out the Domino this afternoon to use for alignment on the insert boards for the antique table I’m working on. I don’t normally use anything for alignment other than clamps and cauls. What a treat so easy even I can do it :). Simple glue up perfectly aligned. I always leave the boards oversized in all directions and then plane then down to final thickness when they dry. There is usually a slight variation that I have to hand plane on one side before heading to the planer. Not this time they are bang on …. I love it! The Domino is certainly going to be a useful addition to the shop.

Sorry Jeff, I have not been spending time in the shop since I finished my buffet.
I only went in to check my Christmas gift but that was it.

I have a lot of work related stuff to focus on at the moment. All must be done by end of March.

Enjoy you build.

Sounds like fun. I do need to make a window seat for a friend and I’m refurbishing an antique table that I want to make some wide insert for. Simple but I’ll put the machine to work. I’ll keep you posted

Well, with that said Wood-Chuck and Ianwater i say i challenge you guys to build something and you must use your festool (s) you have till the end of March to get it done. I need to build a desk so thats what ill be building. Let me know what you are thinking of building. Oh, and anyone can join in on a fun build. Lets have some fun. No it cannot be already built.

Festool makes good stuff.

I don’t have the domino 500 but I do have the jig saw and the track saw from them. Quality tool for sure.

This said I don’t use both much at all.

Hey Jeff congratulations on your fine purchase. I treated myself at Christmas for the same unit. Haven’t used it much yet but I know it won’t be long. (Their prices were supposed to be going up by 10 -12% in January so I finally bit the bullet.;
