Minimum thickness for Dominos

Jun 08, 2013 1 Replies

Thinking about using my Domino to affix some maple trim to the edges of 1/2 inch (nominal) ply. Is that thick enough for the 4mm Dominos?

Not sure what you are asking exactly but perhaps this will help.

I regularly cut 5mm mortises, 25% thicker Domino, in the edge of 1/2" Baltic birch plywood.

Hint, for the fence depth setting I pull the black depth gauge all the way back and let the fence depth stop go down as far as it will go.

Used for this operation very often.
