Festool574432 Domino Joiner DF 500 Q Set

Q: Should I get a second job to pay for this, or do you think a quick refy on my house is enough?

You get what you pay for. Yes everything Festool is expensive but there are reasons. Try out an orbital sander sometime. 100% dust extraction and NO swirl marks or buy a cheap Home Depot one and take five times longer with a crummy job. These are not homeowner tools.

Q: The description says this is the domino set, but it doesn't mention the cross stop and trim stop. Are these included? Thanks.

If you purchase the domino set, those items are included: Combination set includes: Domino DF 500-Plus Joiner, DOMINO cutter D 5mm, Support Bracket, Operating Tool, Trim Stop, Cross Stop, Plug-It Power Cord, and T-LOC Systainer #2 storage container.To get the additional cutters, they come with the assorted domino tenons or you can buy them separately. I have used all sizes of the cutters so these are necessary for working with different thicknesses of wood. I do a lot of garden furniture so I have also ordered the mahogany tenons for a outdoor projects. This tool is expensive but it is a dream to work with. WL

Q: can the tool be used to cut angled mortises for shutters?

No. Not for shutters, which have angled mortises on the stiles. The cutter head always cuts parallel to the fence. That axis is fixed.

Q: I am new to woodworking and buying tools for the first time. Would you recommend this or the biscuit cutter since it is only $170?

It depends on what you are doing. I bought a biscuit cutter and used it to make panels when I first started. That evolved to using dowel pins and now I’m probably going to purchase the DF 500. The reason is I want to make chairs using mortise and tenon joint. If not for this I would stick with dowel pins. All I needed was a self centering drill jig and was in business. It takes more time but it’s better than biscuits and way less expensive than Festool. You can get a jig for under $100.
