Thread: New member of the Domino club!

You bastard.

Now I really really want one. Hang on I just bought a porta-cable biscuit joiner and spent $1,300 on a Tormek. Maybe I should wait.

Did you buy the lot and what is the demage?

Hi Scott!

Yep the Domi, a systainer with a pile of domi biscuits & the four different sized cutters, plus the two stops. All up, about $1,600 (a small discount applied

Pity that you spend around $500 on the PC Biscuit jobbie - the Domi's waaaaay better (sorry!) Can't resist.

This is my first Festool tool, and I have to say that the build quality and the way the various bits & pieces work is a real eye opener.

Tomorrow I'll give her a run to joint an extension to my router table top so as to accommodate the Incra LS-17 +Wonderfence gizmo that should arrive in ten days or so.

Hi Auld

When you get a chance can you take a pic of a mitre joint with the littlest of biscuits?

Well done

Steve, first things first, you suck - big time.

Second, I think you should keep such massive gloats to yourself, at least until I've got one.

Finally, the Code should include an entry to the effect of only allowing one gloat per thread, and no gratuitous mentions of yet-to-arrive tools should be allowed.

Anyway, I'm as jealous as I can be, ya lucky sod!

Wongo,

At least the Porter-Cable is an excellent biscuit joiner, but mine is totally redundant now that I have a Domino. But $1300 for a Tormek? That indicates alarming Dark-Side tendencies. I think you may need to seek counsellling.

Well done Steve, good move! The DAC continues to grow. You are no longer a woose or a big girls blouse but a Domineer.

Pat

Woohoo, another member of the Brotherhood Just remember the Brotherhood have spies everywhere, and if you abuse her, misuse her, dont clean her every night and dont talk about her to perfect strangers at least 5 times a day you will be in serious trouble

Your shed time just wont be the same

Steve after that you should be ready for a 3-way miter And we need pics

Not wishing to detract from Steve's wonderful news, but..
Today I took down a seat frame dry jointed with 5mmx30mm dominos one on each corner, to the Upholsterer. It nearly blew his socks off and you could see his mind turning over the possibilities!

Regards

Rob

Herr Pat!

I refute utterly that I was ever a woose or a big girl's blouse :eek: However, I (think!) I forgive your error in judgement given your closing statement. Methinks that I'll have to have a quiet word in Simou's ear to have him check your missives henceforth (Simou: are you listening? )

I have a nasty (in the wallet) feeling that Herr Festool will be receiving more of my hard earned in the not too distant future. Quality is hard to ignore.

Dear Sir, Mr Kindly bank mismanager...

I snuck out to the shed a few minutes ago and had a few crafty cuts on some innocent scrap. Cor! Just as advertised and dribbled on about here.

Naturally, I gave her a nice blow job and dust off :eek: afterwards.

Done! I'll need some of those (or so I have persuaded my Buffet, etc. client this afternoon). He doesn't know what a Domi is of course. He'd think that I was referring to his wife :eek:

I believe it! I could hardly believe the strength and accuracy of my first joint with Domi!

Now after you have had it for just 5 minutes you can see why we keep going on and on and on and on and on and on and.....
