Domini DF 500

[Bricbasher]

Just got my first Festool tool.  A Domini DF 500!  Is it just me or does the new box smell like a new pair of shoes?  Love this thing!

LOL, yes, the new tools have a very distinctive smell..
May you often encounter it and welcome to the forum!

For me it was the smell of my new BMW but those days have gone - yes, there is a new tool smell - probably from the same bottle as the new BMW smell !!!  [big grin]

I opened mine up two months ago and couldn't wipe the smile off my face. And the scent...well it's still there. It'll always be there!

The smell is part of the Green Kool Aid addiction.  You will love the 500.  It is a great tool and a big time saver.

It's obviously a genetically engineered pheromone, designed to incite lustful tool gathering behavior.  [drooling]

That smell reminded of my teenage years at the surf shops and the old brand of sandals call Tiddies. I had an old friend over and took him to the garage for some memory lane [laughing]
I don't remember the green kool-aid smelling that way  [laughing]
that is one tool that will put a smile on your face after you use it and realize what you are going to get to build with the coolness!!!
