Take Furniture Manufacture To The Next Level With A Festool Domino Joiner

Festool have introduced a joining machine that replaces traditional manual mortise and tenon joints, as well as offering a more advanced method for jointing. The Festool Domino joinery machine with its unique cutting action and adjustable hole widths make loose tenon joinery faster, easier, and more accurate than ever before.

The Festool Domino cuts precise mortise and tenon joints which are then glued to ensure a strong jointing method that is fast becoming the preferred system for joinery.

Employing a similar process to that of a biscuit joiner, the Domino method is as simple as making the first cuts and fitting the pre-fabricated tenons. Using this revolutionary cutting method allows the DIY or woodworking enthusiast to make flawless mortises every single time. The Domino tenon jointing system is far stronger than either biscuits or dowels.

Benefits of Domino jointing method

The design of conventional dowels allow the joint to rotate while biscuits allow lateral movement. Conventional mortise and tenon joints are time consuming and require great accuracy. The Domino tenons have machined grooves to allow glue movement for optimum gluing surface and stronger jointing and the shape prevents rotation and slipping.

The Domino joining system allows a do-it-yourself enthusiast or SME to have the same production capabilities as that of a larger manufacturing facility.
