Two reasons why I dont like yours Ken lol! 1. It folds on the square corner which means when folded its folded along the longest side of the triangle ! Mine folds on the longest side of the triangle towards the square corner meaning it reduces the length when folded! 2. That spring looks like it gets in the way and doesnt look very good lol! just my 2cents! JMB |

JMB, I agree with you, but I'm not swapping since shipping and customs will probably cost me as much as two Domino XL's.

JMB,
Yours looks like an equilateral triangle. Mine is a 3ft x 4ft x 5ft triangle. That would be the difference in the folding method and design.

Um...... Im pretty sure equilateral triangles have no square sides as every side has to be equal hence the name equilateral and if all sides are the same length you CAN NOT have a square corner! Ill google it in a min just to check! I might be wrong! JMB |

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.

I just learned from google that the English term for a triangle with 2 equal sides is an " isosceles triangle".
I never saw those smaller folding triangles before, I do have a 1m stanley folding triangle I use for layout.

OK, so obviously we have a case of different triangles from around the world. OK, everybody check their squares. How many of you have unequal sides and angles other than 90 degrees?

Yeah mine has two equal sides and two 45 45 angle corners which is called a ''Isosceles right angled triangle!'' Or what Ken might call a equilateral triangle |

Yes! For internal corners it fines just when you place it on a board or something with a edge you can only use it one way round for it to hook onto the edge. Mb |

Looking at Tim Raleigh video link (thank you Tim) I am actually liking that more than vacuum forming!
Going to research into the cost of this easyform stuff!
Ya, I am curious as to the cost, let us/me know. It doesn't look cheap. It sounded like they weren't really in "production" but they do look fairly substantial. Tim |
