Greetings:

I thought I would attach a few pics of a vanity I'm building for our master bath. The frame is 1 5/8" European Beech. I used my Festool Domino for all the M&T work. There are about 44 joints with over half being double tenons. The side panels and doors (not shown) are 3/4" ship lapped with dry dominoes top and bottom to hold the panels in place; to allow for movement, I used the wider slot setting in the rails. After cutting the pieces and thinking through where to place the joints, it took about 2 hours to make all the joints. Because I used the standard preset sets wherever possible, many of the parts were cut without marking and proved to be interchangeable because of the repeatability inherent in the machine.

Couldn't imagine doing this with any other tool.

44 mortise and tenon joints in 2 hours - wow!! :D :o

Great looking piece.  Hope you will post more pics of progress and the finished product.
 
Looks great!  I would mount a board behind the bottom though so stuff doesn't get kicked under.  You may already have that in mind though since it is not finished.
