    Default To purchase Domino bits

    $105 NZ for a 100 mm bit for the Domino.

    Posted in FOG Woodworking & Power Tools Forum - Festool Owners Group - Index and was directed to this site....http://goo.gl/oguH0

    $23 US, what a difference.

    Will do, but don't hold your breath.

    Found out about CMT after ordering from local people.

    That's a great saving. I'm posting here so I can back later when I come to the time to replace any of the bits.

    Thanks cicero1520

    Default Silliness

    Imagine a domino machine with a 100mm diameter bit. Probably capable of a half meter plunge... you would have to have all your mates around to hold the DOMINO DF5000000 machine steady every time you want to make a mortice. But what a mortice when you switch to the widest mortice width setting.

    What a bugger, I wonder how many millions are lost with this habit of so many USA companies not posting abroad.

    Can't be hard to do.

    Wonder if there is a firm that makes them in Australia?

    Maybe you could try something like Price USA | Shop where you want ? I haven't used them myself but there are a few similar companies around.

    You basically tell them what you want to buy and they will order it, have it shipped locally within the USA and then on-ship it to you for a small fee.

    Cheers,
    Af.
