Went to my daughter's this past weekend with the assignment to make a large (80 inches tall, 48 inches wide) oak bookcase in a sort-of arts & crafts design we cooked up via email.  She bought oak boards and I cut all to size with my TS55.  Then I milled 24 domino joints in each side (yes, a total of 96 holes!).  It all went together perfectly without major pounding and swearing Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy!  Couldn't possibly have completed it that fast without the Domino.  Alas, I forgot to take pictures, but if/when she sends me some I'll post them.

Added June 11: 

I finally got back and had a chance to take a picture.  In the mean time my daughter had put the bookcase to use, loading it with a couple of tons of stuff (aka books) which I didn't have the energy to remove and restore.  So, there's just one photo and it doesn't show some of the details, such as rails across the back of each shelf to keep books from falling through.
