Thanks Stu! That’s a great, clear and honest impression of the jig, and very much appreciated. I did slightly loosen the fit of the narrow mortise on the production models, so you should fine the next jig a little easier. Your jig was mostly intended for smaller 1/4” routers, the recent Plus jig more for 1/2” with easier clamping options. And thanks for the links to the Bosch guide bush! I have links for 18mm bushes for the Festool OF1010, Makita and DeWalt palm routers if anyone needs them. Edited to add; the jig will work with all Domino DF500 sizes - 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10mm - it’s the cutter that makes the larger mortises, not the jig. Really appreciate the review! Thanks again, Peter 🙌👍👍

Got mine before Christmas. Had messed around with a cheap and not so cheap dowel jig. The 10MW jig is superb. Much better joints and mine have fraction or no discernable lips at the join. Only thing is it makes you realise just how nice a Domino would be if I could justify one.

Nice one mate. I was actually pleasantly surprised how well it works considering what it is. Yeah, I've always thought a domino machine would be nice to have tbh. Thing is, I do almost exclusive solid wood joinery - proper mortise/tenon, dovetails etc. Just can't justify buying the machine. I will use the jig for solid wood table tops and cabinet panels though. 👍

Thanks for posting, as my kit is in the shed, I put dowels, biscuits and loose tenons and pop them in the oven for a few minutes before use. Drying them out makes it so much easier to assemble. Made my first alcove cupboard with this flat pack loose tenon jig and I have to say it’s great. I’ve had a DowelMax for quite a few years which is quite superb and affordable but the ability on the tenon jig to route a slight larger hole is a game changer, something not achievable with dowels. 👍🏻

Cheers Mike. Yeah, I always thought the ability to cut a loose slot on the domino machine was clever. Great that this jig includes that. It's 30-40 seconds in the microwave for my dowells. Didn't try it with these dominoes but Peter has responded here saying that the production jigs have a slightly enlarged tight slot so they should go in a little easier. The one I review here was the pre-production test set. Still a good practice to give fixings a blast of heat to dry out though.👍

Cheers Norman. I've been using the new larger melamine one of late (kindly sent to me by Peter ahain). They both really do the the job well. It's straight forward to use too. Not as quick as the festool machine but, like you say, a decent entry into this type of joinery for hobbyists or those on limited budgets.👍

Cheers George. I remember Peters vid where he knocked up the version in the plans from ply rips. Clever stuff. Decent way to get started with domino joinery. I understand though. I have folders of plans I've bought over the years from houses, to boats to benches. Not made one if them...yet!😂

Did you use a mandrel to center the guide bush? I don't have one, it looks like the securing screws center it fairly well but if it isn't centered exactly it could explain any slight lip you're getting. ?
@BischBaschBosch

Yes mate. Always set bushes with a mandrel as a matter of course. The fraction of a mm I mention is not an issue.. This isn't precision engineering. Manufactured panels and thicknessed hardwoods always have a tenth or so difference over there length/area. That's all it is I think. For all intents and purposes, the surfaces/faces met flush bud.👍

Hi Stu, another great review. The eBay chap made me a guide for my GKF600 which he now lists. Works perfectly, as does the jig which I've successfully used with 12mm MRMDF to make practically invisible face joints. An excellent product :)
@BischBaschBosch

Nice one Tim. Glad the eBay seller sorted you out. Yeah, it's a great little jig. Simple and just works. Did you use spacers for the 12mm?
@timrich7658
2 жыл бұрын
At first I didn't use spacers and it worked ok, but had to be careful not to blow the slightly less than 3mm that was left on one side. I then used some simple 3mm packers and the jig worked perfectly. I backed off the plunge slightly for the face mortices and trimmed the tenons to match. More work, but great results.
