Shane - when can we get this in NA  Sorry, I missed your question. I dunno. No ETA yet. Typically, we get stuff 6+ months after Europe. Got to use one last January when it was still a prototype. Smooth operation, great new features. It's a great tool. |

Have we established how deep the mortises are? It looks like the stroke on the thing is about 2.5" based on the video, so I'm thinking you've got at least a 2" mortise depth.

Here are some photos in case the video stops working again:  Dust extraction was moved up to the fence for better extraction  The Domino Xl is huge.  Depth setting scale  Handel placed on back to keep plunging level  multiple stops built-in to the the fence system |

Good Idea not thought of doing that! Heres the BEAST of a Domino!  EDITED: Gpowers the video never stopped working just doesn't work on your computer! Luckily for you the second link I gave you which is also the higher Resolution video works for you |

Hopefully we get this in time for next years father day - a self gift GPowers: from the video it looked like the dust collection was not as good as the current domino. I don't get any dust when I use the domino - or maybe I have not looked closely enough. |

The mortise is a lot deeper and more material is being routed out. |

The mortise is a lot deeper and more material is being routed out. No, the dust is escaping because of the rebate so the face of the Domino isn't in full contact, that's letting the some dust get away. |

any news on if it can be retrofitted with the normal sized cutters, probably not I asked for the smallest cutter to be used with DF 700 and the answer was "8 mm". I can also hardly imagine that the same small screw thread can hold the 14 mm bit... GPowers: from the video it looked like the dust collection was not as good as the current domino. I don't get any dust when I use the domino - or maybe I have not looked closely enough.
Maybe 'cause the Domino was not flush with the workpiece in the video. It was placed against the rabbet, so there was plenty of room for the dust to escape... |

Check out the stops built-in to the the fence, pretty close to pins. At least it sure looks like you can index from a mortise again. |

Would be nice if they would incorporated it in to the Normal Domino DF500, instead of the additional stops on the plastic add-on base. Most likely not possible due to the thickness of the plate |

It will probably be comparable in price to the OF2200. That's just a guess by the way. Maybe we should ask Guy, he seems to be in the know somehow   |

Well the Current Domino DF500 is about £640 soooo I would say the Domino XL DF700 would be about £800-£900

That makes sense. Hopefully the fence locking mechanism is more robust than the current model. I have had the fence creep on me multiple times however hard I tighten it. From the pics it seems to be a better design. |

Look like it's just a single stage oscillating action, that is tight fitting only.
Could also be usefull for cutting out for small mortic locks.

Good point, it should do a 65mm mortise lock no problem. The bigest cutter is only 14mm though, a lock needs 16mm does it not ? Could do it from both sides though.
