Woodworkers have voiced strong opinions about the new MortiseMatch.
The domino effect: Since Festool launched the Domino joinery tool in 2007, it has garnered wide respect for its ability to speed the creation of loose-tenon joints for many projects. A cross between a plunge router and biscuit joiner, the Domino uses a spiral bit to cut slotted mortises in a variety of sizes. You cut mating slots in workpieces, then glue in loose tenons that resemble dominoes. Lately, we've seen more and more accessories popping up for this tool (the original DF 500) as well as its larger sibling (the XL DF 700). We tested a variety and recommend the following for your Domino.

Altered domino
I love playing dominoes. My Uncle Tom, who is a woodcrafter (and also a domino player), made me an awesome set of wooden trays that hold the dominoes while you're playing. I play occasionally with some of the ladies in my neighborhood and the trays are a big hit. Anyway, I decided to incorporate some altered dominoes into this month's theme. I came up with these colorful coasters. Each coaster consists of 8 dominoes. First I dabbed alcohol inks in various colors on the back side (not dot side) of the dominoes. Some are also stamped with small images using StazOn ink. A few of the dominoes have gold or silver marbling/veining and others are just plain. When I had all the dominoes colored, I then dabbed each side of each individual domino with black alcohol ink. The alcohol ink dries rather quickly so it's pretty easy to work with. I recommend wearing gloves. To assemble the coasters, I glued the dominoes first in two piece sections then clamped them until almost dry. Then I glued two two-piece sections together, clamped, and let those dry. Then I adhered two four-piece sections together and clamped until dry. I went over the lines on the top with a black sharpie to cover the glue - it turned out looking like grout. To finish off the coasters, I adhered a piece of thin cork sheet to the bottom of the tiles, then a piece of med. weight cardboard, then a piece of felt. Overall size is about 4
