Buy or hire the DF 500 RQ-Set if...
The DOMINO DF 500 replaced traditional dowelling and biscuit jointing for many furniture makers and joiners, letting them cut precise mortises for loose tenons quickly. It has no direct equivalent from the other brands in this catalogue, which is part of its appeal to Festool users.
