Bigfoot V2.0
This base is very impressive! The handle and larger base is very reassuring that everything is in the right place. Definitely recommend!

TSO Bigfoot
An absolute game-changer accessory to an absolute game-changing tool. I have loved using my Domino machine and this Big Foot from TSO has made me fall even more in love with using the tool. Attaching the Big Foot gives you an undeniably sturdy registration point when the Domino is in vertical plunge mode. So much so that I now prefer mortising in vertical plunge mode! You NEED this accessory!

Outstanding base
You can’t go wrong with this base. It’s solidly built, easy to use and really adds stability to the domino. As always another great product from TSO.

BigFoot base
I bought this TSO BigFoot base for my Domino 500 to replace the stock base in the kit. This tool is a game changer! I set my domino on the bench, brought the TSO base up to it and without ANY adjusting of the bases height, the small attachment bolts just seamlessly went right into the threads! Often a set up like this requires some small fiddling around to get attached and it was a joy to just put it together. Using it on my latest coffee table it gave me some added support and also a means of keeping the base square to the baseline. Also appreciate the alignment point to accurately see my line as well. Well done TSO!!!!
