It's time to get in your pre-orders for the Festool router table, impact drill/driver, or Multi-Function Stool.
These will ship October 1 and the authorization of a credit card will expire after 30 days, so the best thing to do is call or email me to indicate your desire.
There are 4 different packages for the CMS. Two are stand alone and two attach to the MFT/3.
Stand alone...
CMS-GE Router Table Set Includes: Router Table, Router Module and Fence, Auxilliary Dust Hood w/ Starting Pin, Miter Gauge, Sliding Table, Table Extension, Dust Extraction Hose Set $1600
CMS-GE Router Table Includes: Router Table, Router Module and Fence, Auxilliary Dust Hood w/ Starting Pin $1200
MFT/3 Extension...
CMS-VL MFT/3 Router Table Set Includes: MFT/3 Router Table Extension, Router Module and Fence, Auxilliary Dust Hood w/ Starting Pin, Miter Gauge, Sliding Table, Dust Extraction Hose Set $1300
CMS-VL MFT/3 Router Table Includes: MFT/3 Router Table Extension, Router Module and Fence, Auxilliary Dust Hood w/ Starting Pin $1000
There are two ways too buy the TI 15...
TI 15 Li 3.0 Ah Includes: Drill/Driver Adapter, Keyless Chuck, CentrotecChuck, 2 Batteries (14.4 V 3.0 Ah), Charger, Centrotec Impact Bit Holder, Systainer 1 $525
TI 15 Li 3.0 Ah Basic Includes: Drill/Driver Adapter, Centrotec Impact Bit Holder, Systainer 3 with foam insert ready for additional drill and components $350
The new Multi-Function Stool, MFH 1000, can be used as a stool or a place to mount your WCR. $350
I will have all of this stuff on my website later today, including the accessories for the CMS.

Very nice to see the TI 15 is being sold in a set and Basic (no chucks or batteries). But why the Systainer 1 with the set and Systainer 3 with the basic??

Shane posted pics of the Sys3 for the basic impact. It has room for all the accessories and a second drill.

The SYS 1 is for just the TI 15 similar to the other drills.
The Basic comes in a SYS 3 that has accommodation for your existing Festool drill set plus the TI 15.

Thanks Brice and Tom.
To bad, I would still like the basic TI 15 in a Systainer 1, like all the other drills.

Oh good. I've been thinking about a router table. Glad Festool is finally sending this over here. Need to research this now.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but here goes.....does it make sense to own a standard Festool T15 drill any longer? Or are there benefits inherent in the T15 still in comparison to the Hybrid coming out in October? I wish this was out sooner. I've got two sheds and a deck to build in my backyard before winter kicks in, and would love to get one sooner than Oct. Wonder if Shane is looking for any Beta/Pre-Release testers?

T15 + Ti15 is a nice combo. the Ti15 is foremost an impact driver and can do a reasonable job of drilling - but does not match the T15 in overall drilling performance. By getting the basic kit you get the best of both and save on components).

It makes a lot of sense to have a T15, because the Ti15 isn't quite what you'd hope/want/expect it to be. In fact, the thing is a disappointment, in my humble opinion. For myself, if I needed a new impact driver, I'd go for another brand and get a real one instead of Festool's whatcha-ma-call-it...

I did see the post  but I have said my peace if people want to buy it, its up to them you have your 30day money back so give it a try im sure people will b using that service. Just some advice if people really really want the Ti15 I recommend only to buy the drill bare if you already own a T15 if not then still buy the Ti15 bare and buy a T15 awell lol because as an impact it's okay anything else.... you know my thoughts on that. I personally wouldn't buy it at all not worth it. I'm waiting for the newer festool impact which should be coming end of the year most likely. Jmb

Congrats TOM!
I can't wait to see the reaction. I admit that when questions come in I will be at a disadvantage and won't be able to help whereas I am not able to get one at this point in time. Hope you have fun and that it exceeds your expectations!
Who else ordered one?

The tools in my truck were talking the other day. The Dewalts, PC's, Boschs, Makitas were not happy. They also were in the minority. Their complaint: They felt unused and unappreciated since the Festools moved in. I guess the truth hurts.

Using it in class set my expectations. When I got home from that class a few years back I informed Tom to send me one if or when it became available. I set aside the funds over the last few years, that made this a no brainier.
