    Default Weakening.

    OK OK OK! I have tried to resist even considering a festool Domino , but sit here , Cap in hand, and beg to ask , are you guys that own them still happy with them?
    I am in the middle of a project with over 60 M&T joints and to be honest, I am sick of them and Im not even half way yet.
    I have read a lot on this forum about the domi and would like to here from folks that have had them for a while. Cheers Steven

    Thanks for the quick replies, I didn't really need to much convinceing , and will place an order in the next week.
    My next question is where to get it.
    I have had a bit of a search on the net but would like help in regards to the best place to buy.
    I was thinking of getting the basic kit and as extras, I thought of the 10 mm cutter, trimguide and matching dominoes. Does this sound OK?
    Some advice would be nice..... Cheers Steven.

    I Bought the Domino with the extras, but I must say, I dont use them as much as I thought I would.
    I also bought the systainer with the domino's and cutters, although I make my own domino's now. (you wouldnt believe the price of them here)

    Well the decision has been made, and will place an order early next week. I have decided to get the complete kit with all the bells and whistles.
    Now that I am about to become a "Festoolian" or better yet a "Domineer" will I be automatically admitted to the "Sect" or do I have to qualify somehow?
    I would expect a dark stranger to knock on my door in the dead of night and show me the secret handshake and go through some sort of ritual or initiation.

    That sort of gumph went out with the ark. You'll be given a once-off phone contact and an email address with the tool. Sometimes the hood, cloak and tights come as a promotional item, otherwise you need to pay the $50 for them. Forget the green plastic boots, they're way over the top and tacky.

    Well, after placing the order on Friday morning , the Domino arrived Today, Tuesday , just after lunch. Considering there was a long weekend I reckon that was pretty good. Now to go and have good play, before using it in anger tomorrow. I know this post is no good without a pic , so here she is. Cheers steven.Domino (712 x 534) (534 x 400).jpg
