I think you do have to agree though, that between the Domino 500 and
the new XL700, a large variety of tenon sizes are covered. I'd suggest
to you that you could take double the time to make your specialized
tenons and have even a better fit.


Huh?

But, even you have a cut off time where you determine that it's not
worth further time and effort. The phrase "time is money" is not as
useless a rationale as your statement above would suggest.


Dave, what are you talking about? For the life of me, I can't see how
your above can be remotely considered germane to my quote without a
large leap in imagination/supposition?
