36mm x 16foot hose with Plug It cord.

Can you recommend an 8 to 10 inch long spring with which I could support the weight of the CT26 dust extractor hose from the ceiling? Would love to have a few inches of movement around timidly to retract and balance the weight of thr hose? Thank you.

I have bought a ton of reconditioned tools from the Festool recon.com site. I've been very happy with the purchases. Some were basically new.

I trigger fingered on a kal1 a while back and unfortunately I did not realize that it wasn't the k a l 2. The new version is much cleaner light and brighter. I tried to cancel the transaction but alas it had already been shipped.

I've used it intermittently and it's been fairly babied. Today I grabbed it to stick inside a cabinet case so I can see where the hinge marks were and install the hinge clip and I turned it on and immediately went from high to low ran for about 10 seconds and then cut off. The charging light does not come on when you put the charger on the back and plug it in. If you turn it on when it's plugged in the switch will work and immediately go from high to low run for about 10 seconds and then cut off. So, assuming that the switch is working yet the light will not run it must be some sort of charging board problem? It had seemed a little hot while I was running it on the power cord, mounted on a tripod in the shop.

Anyway, I guess I'm going to send it in and given the fact that it was reconditioned and it's failed again, I'm going to ask them to give me a new kal 2. I don't feel like messing with sending a defective light back every three or four months.

Luckily I have another kal2 (thanks Bob Marino) now that I can use until all this is resolved.

Wish me luck.

My wife and bought a house a few years ago and the previous owner left their dining set for us to use. It served us well, but my we wanted a new look for the dining room.

This was my first project using solid wood for everything. Also my first project of any significant scale using solid wood. Being that I am a new home owner and relatively new to the hobby, I don't have a lot of tools. I live in NYC, so naturally I have a very small space. The garage shop is about 18'x8.5'. But beggers cannot be choosers and I am happy to have a space at all to work.

It took me six months of spare nights and weekends. Longest project by far. The table is made of flat sawn 8/4 Red Oak. It is 102" Long x 42" Wide. I used a combination of wedged mortise and tenons, dovetails and dominos for all of the joinery.
