good day to all . I woke up[ this morning to an email from Festool new product being unveiled on the 8th at pm Eastern time. I was just wondering if anyone might have an idea what maybe hitting the shelves that may empty my wallet. I wonder if its is their Jobsite saw that is available outside the USA. I think that tool is going to be one of there most expensive tools.. I was able to say I was in another country when looking online and that job site saw is like 2400 bucks. it sure looks pretty cool but that is a ton of money.. I may have that figure incorrect but that is what my worn out old brain is pulling up.. well I am just curious what the announcement might be..
February 8 new tool announcement

Not so much a tool and not so much unheard of yet, but the new energy sets with the duo charger. An energy set with 4 & 5Ah batteries was up on Recon last week that was tempting but still was much more than what I'm looking for: the duo charger and a pair of 4s.
Do wish they based the duo charger on the SCA-8 rather than the TCL-6 as the charging times for >= 4Ah batteries is much faster.

Aha... [scratch chin]...that makes sense. Most of the time we have a product lag of around 6 months with the rest of the markets so that may be it. [smile]
Although it could be the cordless MIDI vac which would help back-fill the product lineup as the cordless CTC SYS 1 is already available in the states.
Just noticed the corded CT SYS is no longer available. [sad]

Sedge mentioned it on "Live" yesterday too. It was somewhat cryptic, be he seemed to hedge toward the saws...maybe the TS60?

I caught that, but he seemed to indicate that is was more of a future thing, like next year? or later

If I could suddenly become a reader of tea leaves...I think you're right about the TS 60.

I was watching Festool Live Episode 126 today and at the 28:28 time stamp, Sedge mentioned that "at the moment" the TS 55 FEQ was the newest saw.
Then again at time stamp 30:28 he said that his go-to saws are the TSC 55 KEB & the TS 55 FEQ "at this moment" and then gave us the Austin Powers move.

I really didn’t follow the TS60. Other than scoring, why it over the 75? Size I would guess

No, the TS 75 stands on its own merits, the TS 55 on the other hand has always been just a little shy of cutting depth when placed on a rail. This is the Golden Goose reply.
The TS 75 is large and heavy for cutting sheet goods.

Shares the same blade with the new table saw CSC-SYS 50.
The TS60:
As a previous owner of a TS75, I'd go get the TS60 without thinking twice IF I wanted another Festool track saw.
I'm more interested in the KSC 60 that's coming to the N.A. market (though I have no plans to have any cordless saw or a smaller saw than my KS120).
