Hi, I'm a new festool user since three weeks  (I bought a ts55 wit two rails).

Now that I'm addicted, I'm looking to purchase a domino to build some furniture and a ctl22.

For a good start wit the domino I'm planing to get the systainer "Beechwood DOMINO assortment" part 493301.

But in some festool websites like mine in Switzerland (UK, France,...) it doesn't say if it comes with the router bits. But if you look at the German festool website, the same item "493301" has 4 router bits included with it. In a review of the Domino it says that the assortment of Domino comes too with the router bits.

Does anyone have ordered the assortments of domino part 493301 in uk or France or Switzerland? Does it have the router bits?

One other question does anyone has the "One-handed planer EHL 65" they have a great discount at a store near me. I already have a small bosh one. It is the tool which makes the biggest mess in my small shop (I don't have any serious vac system yet). Since I'm planing for a ctl22 I think it would help ease the mess. Anyone has some experience with it?

Thanks for your time

Hi Alexander,
I bought my Beechwood DOMINO assortment (493301) in Germany but when I look at french websites like ftfi.fr or hmdiffusion.fr the item 493301 includes dominos and cutters. The price is also very similar : 209.18? on festool.fr and 201.49 on festool.de. I think you might confident that it is the same package as in Germany.
Besides that if you look at this page of festool.ch :
http://www.festool.ch/mediandoweb/index.cfm?ID_O_PRODUCT=65507&BLATT=1&sLanguage=DE
it says : Bestellnummer: 493301
Lieferumfang:
? DOMINO D?bel 5 x 30, 6 x 40, 8 x 50, 10 x 50
? DOMINO Fr?ser f?r die Gr??en 5, 6, 8, 10

I have the EHL 65, the dust extraction works well, it does not make a mess (and I have only the CTL mini).

I can confirm that also in Finland the assortiment comes with the bits, 5, 6, 8 and 10 mm. The 5mm bit is also included with the machine, so you'll have two of those when you buy the machine + the assortiment.

 
thank you for the replies  :),

I'm now more confident that the router bits are included and be able to cut straight away various size of dominos.

I will order the Domino and the assortment tomorrow. And use it to make some windows and a door for a house I'm building for my kids and some furniture this winter.
