Festool Router Table

[NineFingers]

I'm finally ready to buy a router table... Sure enough, once I make the decision, I'm having difficulty finding the Festool Router Table locally (Woodcraft and Rockler).  Even their web stores don't show them.  Is there a reason they are unavailable?  Redesign coming?  Discontinuing??  ??? ???

It looks like the CMS may be on backorder on our end. I'll have to check to confirm.

We have the components in stock and need to make more sets to fulfill orders, but they are in stock.

There is no redesign coming nor is it being discontinued.

And, Rockler is no longer a Festool dealer.

Not sure where you're at in CO, but McGuckin's (best hardware store ever) in Boulder sells Festool now. Might give Guirys and Tool Zone a call too. Amazon has them in stock.

McGuckin's (best hardware store ever) in Boulder...

 

If that's not an understatement, I don't know what is...

I have both of them in stock.

I'm pretty sure Austin Hardwoods (near downtown Denver) had one on the floor a while ago.

I went to the WoodCraft store -- they had what I needed.  Now, I just need to figure out how to make the Y on the hose fit into the CT Midi.      [huh]

A section of shop-vac tube works well as a cheap extension.

I got bitten by the "hose doesn't fit a CT-Midi" problem.  Had to go to HD to get some vac hose to make an adapter.  The Missus is saying maybe I should go get a CT-26 and sell my Midi.  Gotta love her.

You'd love her more if she said you could keep the Midi also. ;D

Not sure it'd be possible to love her more.  She's very supportive of my greed addiction.  [smile]
