Festool Courses

Posted: Wed, 15 March 2023, 19:13

We are delighted to team up with Festool to bring you this short class in furniture building. The class will be primarily based around the Festool “Domino” - a unique jointing system using rounded loose tenons to join timber giving very strong accurate and precise joints in an easy & efficient way. 

The class will start with Gordon giving a presentation on the Festool Domino Joiner, fittings and the extensive range of accessories available.

In order to deepen your understanding on this tool you’ll then proceed to making your own side table from scratch. 

Participants will each be equipped with a Festool Domino DF500 to work with at their station for the class duration. You can select from a choice of material out of which to make your table eg Birch Plywood or Teak/Iroko. 

Gordon will demonstrate how to size and cut the material on the Kapex Mitre saw and then with the material kit provided you’ll proceed to setting and using the domino. You will have the option to either dry fit your table & unassemble so that you can take it home flat pack or glue it up. Time will be allowed at the end to both sand and coat your piece with an oil.

While the course is open to anyone looking to make functional furniture projects fast it will be most beneficial to those considering the purchase of a Festool Domino or existing domino owners who may require some instruction in setting up and using this machine to its full potential.

A maximum of 6 participants are taken on each course ensuring you receive adequate attention for the class duration.

Cost: *€60 - This is a special introductory price and includes a €50 voucher redeemable against any Festool products purchased in The Carpentry Store between 24thMarch – 31st March 2023.
