The Woodpecker MFT setup guide; you referring to the Penolic black triangle?
I attempted using it with the dog holes for aligning the gauge and the track on a brand new MFT; nothing but frustration.
I've sworn off every using the dog holes for accurate alignment ever.
It is a very good right angle device though, and laying flat, it's tall, so i used just the right angle edges of it, and align the track and compass that way, more like the traditional way Festool shows to do it using a big Woodpecker Tsquare. Like i said, i like the MFT layout triangle from Woodpeckers cuz it's thick/tall, making it a little easier IMO.
As far as panels being every so slightly off, I always always reference one edge for other parts of the cabinet build; I always use the front edge.
I reference the first domino with no play off the front, i register off the front for all LR32 holes etc; The LR32 holes being referenced all from the front is even more critical when doing holes for drawer slides.
