The Ultimate Base System for Festool DOMINO DF500 & DF700XL

Incorporating feedback from the TSO user community, the new BigFoot™ DBF-45 v2.0 base system packs all the innovations of the original BigFoot:
- Massive surface area for super stability
- Big T-handle for control
- Large open viewport and parallax-free cursor
- Easy on/off with star grip knobs
- Stores easily inside both DF 500 and DF 700 XL systainers
Plus adds the following new features to make your Festool DOMINO system even more useful:
- Mounting points and included hardware for attaching shop-built auxiliary fence, customized to the length of your choice (free plans downloadable below)
- When used in conjunction with auxiliary fence, enables wide panel face mortising with speed and precision
- Three (3) additional parallax-free cursors provide more alignment choices for mortise centerline locations
- Still fits both Festool DOMINO DF 500 and DX 700 XL—and easily fits in both systainers

Best accessory I've bought for my XL DF700
I make quite a few tables where the side walls and dividers are joined to the top/bottom with dominos. Before buying this bigfoot, the originally provided plastic base for making mortises in panel faces was just lacking. The ease and sturdiness of the aluminum base has not only made the process faster, but the ease makes it more enjoyable to use. If I could leave it on 24/7 and would fit in the systainer, I would just leave it on.

Great addition to my Festool family, works great.

DBF-45 for Domino a confidence builder
This replacement vertical support for both Festool Domino models marks a vast improvement over the standard, plastic support. Like the original, installing this support requires placing the domino and the support on the same flat surface and then installing the mounting screws with both parts referencing the same plane. The Bigfoot gives me much more confidence in vertical domino plunges than the stock Festool support. The large handle and the parallax free pointer are very well executed.

Fills a need
Makes it far, far easier to make the face cut for the big Domino connectors.

Domino XL DF 700 Bigfoot
Install this on your Domino, then simply marvel at the precision of the alignment of the two screw holes and the edge of the right angle base to the face of the Domino. Definitely adds stability and grip options for the right angle plunge.
