I've searched about, but I haven't come across anything that will do what want. It would be a fence? or some such thing that attaches to the domino (500) so you can "register" your cuts off of the 45 deg. end of your panels. The point being that I want to use the face of the material for my common starting point? I hope this makes sense.

Why won't the regular Domino fence do the job?  I'm missing it.

I want to use the face of the material for the common starting point. I am joining two different thicknesses of MDF at a corner, so that's why I want to use the face to register off of.

Then you also want the vertex of each angle (of different thicknesses) to be coincidentally located?

Again, if the Domino fence is adjusted at 90 degrees to the bevel angle and the fence height adjusted to the desired mortise location both pieces  should join to make a good corner.

OR, I still don't get what you are trying to do....  [embarassed]
 
I believe if you put the pieces you want to join back to back with the bevels matching you will have a valid reference surface using the 90 degree setting. The added benifit is you do this once and can mill both pieces. Just remember they will be flipped around when you assemble.

Well stated Mr. Mann. 

As Greg says register off of the left edge on one piece and the right edge on the mating piece.

Just use the support bracket.
