Fixed louver shutters with the Domino

[Brice Burrell]

The idea came from Gary Nichols, he posted a thread on the Festool Owner Group forum.
I used this idea to make louvered shutters.

Using the Domino's index pins to align it on an angle to mortise the slotes for the louvers.

After the first slot is cut, use a cut down Domnio tenon to space the next slot.
