I'm getting to the point of wanting a new bench top / cutoff table behind the table saw. I'm getting tired of my old 3 layer MDF glued together top because it doesn't have any sort of bench dogs or anything and it seems to have gotten out of flat over the years. OK - here's the question. I don't really have a great way to make the dog holes really accurately so I can use it sort of like a muti function table like Festool has out there. This has become an issue because I recently got a DF700 Domino and find it's time consuming to clamp the boards down constantly to make the domino cuts. Accurately spaced dogs seem like it would be nice thing to have. Why couldn't I use my Domino to make 14 mm Domino holes as my dog holes and just make stops using the dominos attached to small boards (or even just the dominos - but that might prove difficult to remove them easily). I can even envision using steel stock that is slightly smaller than 14mm to make camp downs if I can get them to fit right. I know I can use the Domino to make the hole grid very straight and accurate. Think it would work? I might could even make the x pattern dog holes like I've seen somewhere. Planning on making the bench out of 2 inch oak.
I usually only assemble smaller projects on this table but I just need it more to make my domino cuts on there.
