Moreover, combining this tool with the DOMINO jointing system makes day-to-day work with the joiner even more efficient.
Further information about our DOMINO joining machine
A DOMINO joining machine is a quick, easy, and reliable way to joint everything from panels and cabinets, through to lightweight frames and rack joints.
The DOMINO joining machines are ideal for use in frame construction of house doors and interior doors, the manufacture of tables and chairs, the creation of stable mitre joints, the connection of wide cornices, and much more.
With maximum precision and simple handling, our DOMINO joining machines feature Festool’s unique, patented joiner routing motion. This simultaneous rotating and pendulum movement of the router delivers smooth work and holes without scorch marks.

Application examples
Implement practical ideas with step-by-step instructions
Jointing, Sawing, Routing
Cutting kitchen worktops to size and connecting them
You do not need to have a powerful router and accessories to cut a kitchen worktop to size at the corner. You can use a circular saw to mitre-cut worktops and connect them at various angles, ensuring that the decors on the panels match up exactly. This application example also covers the subsequent gluing and other post-processing steps.
Project description, Jointing, Routing
Connecting posts – domino dowel joint instead of mortise and tenon joint
This application example shows how to join construction timbers with the aid of Domino dowels. In the example, the purlins, posts and brace are joined together. These joints serve to secure them in position and aid assembly. To ensure a structurally effective joint, additional appropriate fasteners should be used.
Jointing
Round profile joints with the handrail fence of the DOMINO jointer
Two round profiles can be joined by a dowel and secured against being twisted using a DOMINO jointer. This illustrated guide explains how to produce custom-fit round profile joints and how to adjust the handrail fence. We recommend making a test cut before beginning work, in order to guarantee good end results for your round profile joints.

One man and his rocking chair
For years, Michael Möllmann had been dreaming of a rocking chair like the one owned by US President John F. Kennedy. Together with joiner Karsten Schillings, this dream became a reality. The professional and the layman worked together as a team to complete the project.
WORK
From theory to practice
From theory to practice: Clarissa Kellermann is completing a practical semester at Karsten Schillings' joinery workshop. Over the course of this semester, they produced the Tria Omada furniture series. The Festool Domino DF 500 and 700 joining machines proved to be the ideal companion for this project.
