Surely this is a non-issue; if I notice that a domino is a bit tight to push into its mortice, I just give it a few strokes on some 120-grit sandpaper to remove the extra 0.05 mm that is causing the problem - not more than a few seconds' work. If dominos are made from natural wood, their dimensions are bound to vary slightly, according to the prevailing humidity.

Hi Lignum and Rocker,
Lignum, thats a fascinating observation at several levels primarily with regard to moisture retention of cross cut v flatsawn timber in general.
Rocker, I guess this thread was an exercise in determining the effect of moisture over a given time frame and the effect on dominos in general. I think we are all aware of the moisture issue and ways to resolve it and I really was being tongue in cheek .
Regards
Rob
