<font color='black' size='2' face='arial'>I have used the Festool Domino. I don't own one because of the cost, but they are great machines. I use mortise and tenon a lot and find it is really easy to cut the tenon on a shaper with a couple of Freud 6" blades and some spacers. They are consistent, and I can run the boards face down through the shaper. That way, I'm not having to run the boards on end through the table saw.

<div id="AppleMailSignature">Ok so it takes me longer to cut the tenons on the table saw, and setup the mortiser and cut them, as a hobbyists my free time is free so personally I can't justify it.</div>
