New Domino KD Connectors

[petermillard]

I've considered a Lamello Zeta but have been put off by the machine price...

Same here

The other thing that occurs to me is that in terms of the debate between the 500 and XL 700 Domino machines this, from my perspective at least, decisively tips the balance in favour of the 700.

According to a post on FOG "Dominofix connectors for the D500 are at a stage of having completed a 1000 production trial..." You may be right about a newer version of the tool, but it would be a mistake IHMO for Festool not to make these compatible with the thousands of original Domino 500s out there, unless there's a technical reason for it e.g. deeper plunge required?

Edited to add:- Actually, now I think about it, a redesigned 500 in the style of the 700 (better fence, pins, ergonomics) but with a deeper plunge may get a lot of people upgrading their original Dominos - myself included.

Cheers, Pete

They are on the UK site.

I wonder how good the straight one would be for corner joints on worktops?

The suggestion seems to be that they would be...
