Sedge, this video format works so well! It's as close as we can get to being in the shop with you and Big D. We really get the chance to learn from your experience. Thank you!
I’ve owned my domino for a few years and machined a few thousand mortises at this point and I never realized that the base is machined as a reference point for the center line of the bit! Thank you for pointing out that feature it’s going to save me a lot of time measuring and guessing in the future.
Keep up the Festool videos, I bought my first back in the early 2000, before the sustainer was modified with the center handle. These tools have taken a average woodworker up several notches, now all my cabinets are built exclusively with Festools
Thanks for the vid. Taking the plate off the motor to set centre line on the rails is a great tip. Seems obvious after you showed it but I’ve never done it that way. Good content as always.
Hey Sedge I’ve been watching your videos since the beginning and it’s always a blast lots of amazing tips to make everything Festool work even better I’ve recently been able to get my hands on a full CMS router table with all the accessories looking forward to using it in my workshop I hope you’ve also got a couple basic videos coming on your channel about the CMS router table Kind regards from a loyal Festool Fan & and half German man 😊 Cheers from Denmark 🇩🇰
Great video as always guys. I am going to throw a curve at you… or rather an angle. I am going to build some functional exterior angled shutters. Any suggestions on how to get a consistent spacing and a consistent angle? Spacing really shouldn’t be a problem, that’s just consistent layout… Any thoughts on getting a consistent angle? Thanks for your time. Have a great week.
@@sedgetool Hi guys. I’ve been thinking about this since I left the comment. I was thinking the WoodPeckers Domino Mortiser demonstrated would work? I might have another possibility… FastCap has a Domino rail plate that attaches to the Festool guide rail. I could use the new Festool Angle Stop set to the angle I need. Another possibility is I also have access to a friends sliding mortiser… I was thinking I could set the mortiser chisel bit to the angle I need and slide the board over as needed… If you or anyone else has any thoughts I would appreciate it. Thanks for your time…
Sedge, another great video with some really great information. One question - Where did you get that self centering jig? I have not been able to find one that I like and that one looks really good.
Thank you Sedge, Big D and Chris! ❤ Can’t thank you enough for sharing your knowledge with us, your team is absolutely the best. 🎉 One Q, what kind of adjustable bench dog clamps these are? Can you share the link or post it in the tutorial’s description here on YoutTube?
Always interesting to view your video's. But in my application, I'm creating a small toddler chair. I want too drill the mortises vertically in the standing legs (40x40mm) just 4 mm from the top for the apron's. I could be comparable with your workpiece when the horizontal pieces are tilted 90 degree. So you have to drill a mortise for the domino in the smallest part of the leg. How would you do that?
Very helpful! By chance (and luck) I just tried layout on a project with the plate off and it worked great. Is there any hack for for making "thru" mortises? I was going to make some drawers recently and use dominos as accents on the butt joints where the sides overlap the fronts and backs. I couldn't find a way to make the mortises deep enough in one cut after the drawers were tacked/clamped together. Suggestions?? Keep the great videos comin'!
I am building, in place, oak book shelves from lumber I have harvested and dimensioned from my own land. They will be 12" deep and 8' tall. They must be built in place because of the size and will cover 2 walls in the room. My question is this: How do I use my domino to correctly cut mortises identically for each vertical shelf board? I own the two Festool LR32 track with the adapter for a Domino tool. Do you think this would allow for precision or is there a better way?
Sedge I lost my 6mm hex key that came with my kapex and I’m having a hard time finding a replacement can you tell me where I can purchase another? Thanks
Ok great video Sedge but my question is why do you always demonstrate the 500? I have the DF-700 and the base to centerline is 15 mm and the 500 is 10 mm so i’d love it if you’d show the measurements and usage of the DF-700 Thanks
I used to hate these videos when I didn't have the domino 😂. Now they are the best videos on the internet 😂.
wow..Thanks
Sedge videos always make my day better
Thanks Russell

Layout is key! Thank you Sedge, always learn something when I watch your videos. You are The Man... Johnny O

Right on

Glad it helped
taking the motor off to make the adjustment. Is a wicked sharp idea ! Thanks
👍
Whenever I’ve made mistakes with my domino, it’s been not following layout or not being consistent with reference points.
Another 💎 Sedge.
Thanks...
Thank you Sedge, Big D and Chris. I have an idea on what I want to try it on.
Our pleasure!

I have been contemplating doing a CMS router video....
Such a great teacher, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Another winner Sedge. Some great tips in this one. Thank you as always. 🙏🏻
Thanks Allan
Another Very useful learning video. Thanks Guys!!!
You bet!

Another possibility is the WoodPeckers Morty. I think that might be the best option.

How would you use the Domino to create angled slats for shutters?
You make it look so easy!
Thanks Mike !!!
"You want it American not Rushian" Classic Sedge! 🙂
whew..some got it !!
Another great video.
Layout. Layout Layout!
Thanks Angie !!!
I like the little tips along the way, great job fellas 👍👍👊👊
Glad you enjoyed it

@@sedgetoolOh my god... Did I just asked you a question a Domino expert cannot answer? 🙂🙂🙂🙂
Have you done a video on attaching a rail to a tapered leg?
not yet...
Big D always has the best questions
of course

If you set your domino depth at 28 mm the 5x30 domino should go in flush..the 5x30 domino is actually 28mm long...
Thanks!

I would like to purchase the Festool Domino but it looks difficult and confusing to use? Any insite ?
really !!! check out the channel...
Sedge I lost my 6mm hex key that came with my kapex and I’m having a hard time finding a replacement can you tell me where I can purchase another? Thanks
Festool Service ...
Since the setting on the rails is loose, how do you make sure they’re even when you go to glue them together? Spacers?
Definitely spacer blocks.🏝️🇨🇦
yep ...for sure or use a centerline
Sou marceneiro aqui no Brasil,admiro muito seus vídeos. É lastimável não termos essa máquina aqui no Brasil(dominó)Grande abraço pra vc.
🙏🙏

ok
Sedge I didn't know you were from the "Westside"
ahhhhh ... someone noticed .......
One zero, zero zero one one, one zero one zero one...
and what does an American or a Russian have to do with this?
