Domino Question

[Scrap]

Anybody using the Domino for dining room tables, beds or any other bigger furniture? If so how is that working out for you?

Here is a dining room table that I made for my younger daughter:

Each of the apron joints has two 10x50's. The table is 48 inches in diameter, to give you an idea of the size. The table also serves as a game table for the weekly poker game, so it's not treated gently. She has been using it since June and has not reported any problems.

Yes, works great.

Joint strength isn't any different to that of a regular M&T or loose tenon as far as I can tell.  Just make sure you keep regular M&T rules in your head as you design the domino joint.

I have a customer that I build entertainment centers for and built-in floor to ceiling bookcases/cabinets and am now using the Domino extensively.  The strength is unparalleled compared to the "Pre-Domino" construction and it helps make assembly a DREAM. 
Now, when he orders things from me, it is specified in the contract as "Domino constucted".

Thanks guys, I'd still be pretty interested in seeing some more examples, but I've been looking at the Domino for a very long while and I am going to be purchasing it very soon.
