Domino 500 Attaching Round Table Legs

[Woodworker70]

I recently purchased the Domino 500. What is the best practice to attach a round table leg to the apron? Is there a accessory or jig available for the round leg?

Thanks.

Your post is obviously low on detail and therefore difficult to answer. However if I were trying to use a domino on something cylindrical like a round table leg I would probably make a quick and simple sacrificial 'U' shape jig. I would make it out of maybe a 1/4" material and place the round piece inside the cavity, clamp it in place and then plunge through the sacrificial jig to make my domino mortice. Obviously you would have to plunge at a greater depth setting to compensate for the thickness of the jig as well as/or trim the domino length a small amount to accommodate.

Build a cradle jig out of ply (see image for a sample, bare bone design, not to scale) to hold the round stock with the jig's top as the registration platform for the DF500's fence. Depending on your design and shop set-up, it should take 30 mins to an hour to build one.

You need two lines for placement and registration. The vertical lines are marked on the jig's top. The horizontal placement lines are marked on the round leg (presumably centered with the cutter, so just one long line can be drawn). Use the milled flats (which represent the center line of the cutter) on the machine to set the fence height.

Would it work to create a flat on the leg where the tenon needs to go?
