The TSO BIGFOOT BRACKET is one accessory I have to have the original one is made if plastic and there are no handles to hold it firmly down. BIGFOOT has a nice handle that feels good and solid to hold down my Domino 700 xl with no chance of movement
I would buy a second one when I buy my DOMINO 500. This device holds the tool in the upright position ROCK STEADY.

Nice addition to Domino
I find this adds a lot of stability for domino plunging in the middle of wood pieces where you want accurate alignment and an ability to hold the domino tool accurately. Definitely adds confidence on placing dominos.

TSO Bigfoot
The Bigfoot is well machined with quality knobs and handle. The machined pointer lines up exactly with the machine centre line. The Bigfoot is indeed big with a much larger footprint than the Festool plastic version. Overall it adds stability and firm engagement allowing accurate mortises.
