Lets hope its a Domino 1500, 150mm of depth x up to 15mm domino's, that way I can sell my mortice machines and chain morticers and build everything with just 3 different models of a domino.

I'll take anything but an upgraded DF 500, purely (obviously) because I finally just bought one!

(2) Have you tried carrying a large Festool vacuum such as the CT 22 I am using in the picture up a ladder?  It's even difficult for me to manage the CT Mini on a ladder.  I expect that I will make a simple frame to hang from the ladder that will hold the new smaller vacuum.
While I agree that the CTL SYS would be easier to use, why didn't you just use a longer hose or a hose extension?

Probably a weight issue.

I've worked like this, and it's no fun having 7 meters of hose dangling from your sander when you're on top of  a ladder.

I thought of purchasing a hose extension but never got around to it.  It might work or it might be awkward and heavy.  I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has tried it.

I've done this - worked petty well, with very little reduction in suction over the length. The trick was to run some velro around the hose a couple of metres from the end and suspend this from the ladder rungs on an 'S' hook - takes the bulk of the weight off the business end. Festool also do an extra-long plug-it chord so you don't have trailing extensions adding to the weight and clattering around under the ladder as well.

Yes i posted earlier about importance of 110v option but topic started to go off topic which really annoys me, its back on track now, and my post probably not got read by many.

110v please and on other tools as well

Thanks Phil
Ive been waiting for the rebadged protools becoming available in 110v, but i guess it wont happen as its been a while now and i can understand manufacturing and distribution costs etc. to make the change.

But the new brushless sanders are only available in 240v and hence its no good to me, ime suprised by this as it would be a ideal for solid surface fitting on site.

This vac even tho is not cordless (like my old dewalt) it would still be good for quick site work, in my case shopfitting instalation type work, alterations /repairs onsite, etc
 
There are 2 similar topics regarding the ctl sys, and i posted about 110v in the other one, which went a bit off topic hence my ealier rant sorry
 
Before it even hits the shelves I'd like to start speculation on ... a cordless version [wink]

Add another systainer into the mix that's a multi battery pod and fast charger combo ... so when not used for charging it could also be used to power the vac (aim for 72V so it really sucks).
 
Or...
110v version with option for 5/6 batt's. 
220v version with option for ??? batt's    [scared]
