I was wondering how i should deck out a alt for tanking in a domi?
What skills should i use so i can tank in 0.0?
What weapons should i use?
Whats the best way to do this so i can mine?
Should i even use a domi and not a brutix?
Thank you for any help you give.

Well for tanking a 0.0 spawn in a Dominix you
need:
High slots:s
6 miner II
Mid slots:
fill up with best named capacitor rechargers.
Low slots:
1 Large armor repairer, 1 Medium armor repairer, 3 rat specific hardeners, example given: Angels= 2 explosive hardeners, 1 kinetic hardener, 2 cap rechargers.
Named is of course always better, this setup will tank any spawn for any duration and will mine reasonably well. You will however have to be on your toes with the ores as it won't hold much more than 1 minute worth of mining, adding drones and you need to alternate cycles each 30 seconds.
This setup is awesome for group mining, where you tank a spawn and thus protect the "real" miners, but will also mine well by itself.

hull upgrades, mechanic, repair systems, energy systems operation, energy management, electronics, mining
to 4 or 5 as needed

Franny is correct, as to how to do it.
(I think this was your question?)
slap the hardware on the dominix, undock and turn all the hardeners and repairers on, sit there and wait to see if your cap stabilizes under the load.
It should "hover" around 30-40%, if it goes below that you need better skills or better capacitor modules.
If the capacitor holds, warp to belts where the ore you are after is present, turn everything on and start mining.
Pay attention the first 10 minutes or so, the miner II's shouldn't affect your cap much, but if it is already at the limit, you might not be able to sustain it.
No rats will be able to break this tank and you can mine as actively as you please, AFK if needed or whatever.
The only threat to this is player pirates, but the tanking is rather good as it is and if it's a smaller ships it won't be able to break it, unless perhaps with massive nos.
However on the pirate issue, tanking a full spawn and then a pirate will no prove too healthy for your ship, so watch local or stick to secure space.
Good luck.

Hmm all good advice,i should have the skills,as they are all at lvl IV right now thats been mentioned.
I dont actually plan on mining with the domi,just a support tank/rat clean up. But i might once my area proves a little more stable.
Thnx again!

with decent skills, you can run 2 * lrg rep 2s forever with some miner2s/mdcm2s
using 5 cap rechargers(euts/cap2s) and 2 cpr's
by decent, I mean either cap skill at 5, skills for t2 hardeners, rep systems 4
so it's not THAT hard to do
