To test for eye dominance hold a pencil vertically in front of you and in front of an object. Look at it with both eyes. Now close your left eye. If the object doesn't move to one side you are right eye dominant. Now try closing the right eye. The object should move to the right if you are right eye dominant. Obvious the reverse is also true if you are left eye dominant.

The ideal situation is that you would have the same dominant eye as your dominant hand. Those of us who don't have to take a bit more care when making cuts requiring critical accuracy.
This was unclear to me (not the instruction, but the results of the execution, i.e. I noticed movement on both instances).

However I tried another trick.

extend your arms and place your hands to form a small triangle with your thumbs and index fingers (now close that triangle to about 1" to 2" in size).
Center an object a few feet away, like a photograph, a doorknob, etc.

close one eye at a time.

If you when closing your right eye the object is not seen - Right eye dominant
If you when closing your left eye the object is not seen - Left eye dominant

same thing, but it was obvious with this one, at least for me.
