FWW has a short clip demo-ing the new domino. Supposedly it cuts compound mortises for loose tennon joinery.

>> So it does the same thing as a $10 dowel jig? It is obviously much
Well if you want to simplify it that way, why use a dowel jig at all? Why not just use a drill and bit?
Does a $10 dowel jig work on compound angles or cut slots over 1" wide? I don't think so.

It will do the joint they showed in the demo about as well, and not that much longer to do. Perhaps the machine will do more than they showed, but perhaps it won't.
1" slots? I just did a table joining the legs to the aprons with 2 1/2" dowels. It is certainly strong enough.- Vote on answer

Yeah, 1" slots to accept 1" wide tennons.
