The Domino joiner -- with its revolutionary cutting method -- creates mortises that accept Beech and Sipo tenons (called Dominos). The process is fast, easy and accurate.
The unique tool allows for highly repeatable work -- significantly improving your efficiency and allowing you to do more work in less time.

Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Joining has always been a slow, difficult process. Never again, thanks to the Festool Domino joining system.The Festool 574432 Domino Joiner DF 500 Q Set B004SETSXE comes with the following : Cross stop, Domino DF 500 7/32 (5mm) cutter, Open ended spanner WAF8, Trim stop in a systainer sys 2 T-Loc. The Domino joiner, with its revolutionary cutting method, simple indexing features and adjustable mortise sizing, makes flawless mortises every single time. The Domino tenon is equally as impressive - it is 100% rotation-proof and far stronger than either biscuits or dowels. It also has a large gluing surface area for extra strength. The unique, patented cutting mechanism consists of a spiral cutter with carbide tip that oscillates as it rotates to create perfect mortises time after time. This action creates a clean entry for a perfectly flush surface while preventing heat build up in the tooling for long cutter life. The Domino joiner is a simple tool to use with angle, depth and height adjustment scales with positive stops for repeated work and accurate indexing. The included stop pins allow for consistent indexing against the workpiece edge which is critical for perfect alignment when joining panels. Create precise, solid joints for your largest or smallest projects. The Domino is portable and ergonomic and lets you take the tool to the work for precise joint placement. The adjustable fence for mitered and beveled joints ranges from 0 to 90º with positive stops at 22.5, 45, 67.5, and 90º. Straightforward adjustments for mortise width and depth, and material height. An available range of tenon sizes and types for maximum joint stability across many different applications. The Domino system is above all economical and efficient. The fast, easy alignment and repeatability of accurate mortises dramatically reduces set-up time and enhances your quality of work. The set version includes additional Festool accessories Trim Stop for registering on narrow pieces and Cross Stop for repeat mortise indexing. Made in Germany.

There are many ways to make two pieces of wood stay together, and with $50 worth of hand tools and incredibly perfect technique, you can definitely do without this tool. I bought it because it allows me to be highly accurate, extremely fast, and almost entirely eliminated ruining workpieces and having to spend extra money on more material to start over with parts of projects. I can assemble a project in 1-2 hours with the Domino that would have required I spend 20-30 hours with a mixture of hand tools and power tools to accomplish.
The other thing this saves me is a huge amount of garage space. No need for me to own a bunch of tenon cutting jigs/sleds or a stand mortiser and a plunge router setup just for cutting mortises. I like that a lot.
Pros:
Saves time
Super accurate
Avoids ruining workpieces
Helps me save shop space on all of the tools I'd need to use to reproduce the functionality this has
Cons:
Cost enough to cause marital heartburn
I really wish they figured out a way to have one machine do all the domino sizes supported by the regular domino and the domino XL. That would certainly add even more value. As it is, I decided to do the smaller Domino, and it has been a good choice. The couple of times I wished for XL, I could still pull off what I needed to do with multiple Dominos, whereas I've done a ton of projects that there is no way I could have used the XL. I fear one day I will need to own both, but if you are a general purpose user (i.e. you're not making doors, beds, and other large items on a daily basis), the smaller guy is probably the right choice.
The manual that comes with the joiner is ok but if you go to [...] you can download a supplemental manual for the domino joiner that is very good. It has colored illustrations and pictures and gives some excellent examples of what you can do with the joiner.
I am making kitchen cabinets for my son and daughter in-law and the domino and the Festool track saw are making my work much easier and faster.
These tools have made a believer out of me. Like they say, you get what you pay for.
