I'm finally going to be breaking down and getting this drill next week, What will your next purchase be this year???
 
Oh, you won't regret it.  Of course, you could just post a knockout question on the forum and see if Shanta (see what I did there...Shane/Santa) comes early this year!

Me, I'm upgrading my lathe next. Thinking of the Nova DVR XP.

Cheers,
Rick
 
+1 on the carvex, but most likely a kapex.  Like you Wayne, I can't wait any longer.  Got a trion recently, and I'm not that impressed...
I do have the cxs, and its quite possibly the best small drill I've ever owned.  Can go a full day of cabinet installation on one battery

CXS is a good little drill.  I think Mr Lie Nielson is calling again, tempted by the no 9, mitre plane for the shooting board  [embarassed]
 
You won't regret the CSX, it is a great drill.

I am planning to buy INCRA TS fence, the only problem I have is I am used to the Biesemeyer blade guard which does not work with the INCRA.

I will include also the router option on the right side of my Unisaw.
 
I love my cxs, it loves pocket hole screws. So comfortable to handle and hangs great off of your belt.

My next purchase for me will be the ro90.
 
Great little drill, no question about that.  My next purchase, a 9/16" X 12" drill bit (that's about half of a parrot feather by one parrot long). [tongue]
 
Chris,

You just gave me an early christmas present.  I will buy the fence asap.

Could you give some pointers, details?  I was googleing how to do it, but people said they had to cut the fence to make it work with the biesemeyer.

Your idea is great, congrats!

Fidel.

More like a third of a monkey.  I can't believe I watched that stupid video, there's three minutes of my life I'll never get back.... [tongue]

+1... I just got a CXS too.  So far, so well.  Not that I'm worried.
 
Walk into Festool dealer...check, Walk randomly around the place as if I dont know what I'm doing...check, Take a loooong look at the CXS set version...check, Take out my wallet and head to the counter...check, BUY the CXS...CHECK!!!

Finally have a new festool drill after 6 years woo hoo.
 
Can't wait to hear your review!  I don't think you'll regret this purchase in the slightest

Will try and get one done this weekend, I also bought a SYS1 t-loc with the plastic compartments, just to compliment the CXS T-Loc.
