## Description

From the Manufacturer Joining has always been a slow, difficult process. Never again, thanks to the Festool Domino joining system.The Festool 574432 Domino Joiner DF 500 Q Set B004SETSXE comes with the following : Cross stop, Domino DF 500 7/32 (5mm) cutter, Open ended spanner WAF8, Trim stop in a systainer sys 2 T-Loc. The Domino joiner, with its revolutionary cutting method, simple indexing features and adjustable mortise sizing, makes flawless mortises every single time. The Domino tenon is equally as impressive - it is 100% rotation-proof and far stronger than either biscuits or dowels. It also has a large gluing surface area for extra strength. The unique, patented cutting mechanism consists of a spiral cutter with carbide tip that oscillates as it rotates to create perfect mortises time after time. This action creates a clean entry for a perfectly flush surface while preventing heat build up in the tooling for long cutter life. The Domino joiner is a simple tool to use with angle, depth and height adjustment scales with positive stops for repeated work and accurate indexing. The included stop pins allow for consistent indexing against the workpiece edge which is critical for perfect alignment when joining panels. Create precise, solid joints for your largest or smallest projects. The Domino is portable and ergonomic and lets you take the tool to the work for precise joint placement. The adjustable fence for mitered and beveled joints ranges from 0 to 90º with positive stops at 22.5, 45, 67.5, and 90º. Straightforward adjustments for mortise width and depth, and material height. An available range of tenon sizes and types for maximum joint stability across many different applications. The Domino system is above all economical and efficient. The fast, easy alignment and repeatability of accurate mortises dramatically reduces set-up time and enhances your quality of work. The set version includes additional Festool accessories Trim Stop for registering on narrow pieces and Cross Stop for repeat mortise indexing. Made in Germany.

Review: Yes, it’s worth it - Not only does it create a strong joint, which a biscuit does not do but it creates perfect alignment. It’s definitely pricey but after using it I find it hard to believe I’ve lived most of my life without it. It’s made well, easy to use and makes joining boards a whole lot faster. Like anything else I wish it cost less but I can also say I honestly feel like it is worth the money.
Review: Dangerously useful, worth the investment - This is one incredibly useful, excellent piece of equipment. It does something that no other tool maker has attempted, and Festool aced it. There are many ways to make two pieces of wood stay together, and with $50 worth of hand tools and incredibly perfect technique, you can definitely do without this tool. I bought it because it allows me to be highly accurate, extremely fast, and almost entirely eliminated ruining workpieces and having to spend extra money on more material to start over with parts of projects. I can assemble a project in 1-2 hours with the Domino that would have required I spend 20-30 hours with a mixture of hand tools and power tools to accomplish. The other thing this saves me is a huge amount of garage space. No need for me to own a bunch of tenon cutting jigs/sleds or a stand mortiser and a plunge router setup just for cutting mortises. I like that a lot. Pros: Saves time Super accurate Avoids ruining workpieces Helps me save shop space on all of the tools I'd need to use to reproduce the functionality this has Cons: Cost enough to cause marital heartburn

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Should I get a second job to pay for this, or do you think a quick refy on my house is enough?**
A: You get what you pay for. Yes everything Festool is expensive but there are reasons. Try out an orbital sander sometime. 100% dust extraction and NO swirl marks or buy a cheap Home Depot one and take five times longer with a crummy job. These are not homeowner tools.

**Q: The description says this is the domino set, but it doesn't mention the cross stop and trim stop.  Are these included? Thanks.**
A: If you purchase the domino set, those items are included: Combination set includes: Domino DF 500-Plus Joiner, DOMINO cutter D 5mm, Support Bracket, Operating Tool, Trim Stop, Cross Stop, Plug-It Power Cord, and T-LOC Systainer #2 storage container.To get the additional cutters, they come with the assorted domino tenons or you can buy them separately.  I have used all sizes of the cutters so these are necessary for working with different thicknesses of wood.  I do a lot of garden furniture so I have also ordered the mahogany tenons for a outdoor projects.  This tool is expensive but it is a dream to work with.  WL

**Q: can the tool be used to cut angled mortises for shutters?**
A: No. Not for shutters, which have angled mortises on the stiles. The cutter head always cuts parallel to the fence. That axis is fixed.

**Q: I am new to woodworking and buying tools for the first time.  Would you recommend this or the biscuit cutter since it is only $170?**
A: It depends on what you are doing.  I bought a biscuit cutter and used it to make panels when I first started. That evolved to using dowel pins and now I’m probably going to purchase the DF 500. The reason is I want to make chairs using mortise and tenon joint.  If not for this I would stick with dowel pins. All I needed was a self centering drill jig and was in business.  It takes more time but it’s better than biscuits and way less expensive than Festool.  You can get a jig for under $100.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome tool but appears to have already been used
*by G***E on June 16, 2021*

Updating to 5 stars I’m still not happy about the condition of the tool when I received it but after using it a few times I feel like it deserves a 5 star review. It’s expensive but the build quality, design and functionality of this tool is AMAZING. This has become my new favorite tool and if you can afford one I would highly recommend buying one. You really have to use it to fully appreciate what it is. I have absolutely no regrets about buying it and after using it, I couldn’t imagine not having it. Also, the dust collection on this thing is far better than any other tool I own. I always wear a respirator when working in the shop but don’t feel the need to when using this tool. There is literally no sawdust escaping this thing. Original Review: This is one awesome tool but mine looks like it was already used. The body of the tool and handle on the fence are a little scuffed up. It’s true that this slight cosmetic damage could have occurred during shipping but the cutter also had sawdust on it right out of the box. I would recommend buying locally if possible.
