Fill in the blank: I wish Festool made a ______!

[Woodhack]

I wish Festool made plug it cords that are the sizes of the hose lengths they sell.

For example I used on of my sanders in a skylight last week. I had to lift the ct 26 to reach but, have now started looking into extra hose lengths and it seems this would be the easiest thing rather than try and combine other stuff with my Festool tools

I'd like to see a planer, thickness unit, like the man from Queensland said. Something that will get the wood to the size I need, and then I can cut, shape and sand it with my Festool tools.

Combo unit - planing function, sit it on the kapex mft, and the in/outfeed tables a flush with a standard MFT, fold away legs, and the outfeed is flush with the MFT3 while standing for jointing work.  They've made a $2500 hand held edge bander, why can't they make a jointer / planer in that price range that will incorporate the existing work tables?

I wish they made a Cordless multi tool.

I wish the made a small base like the off500 base to fit mfk700 router

He said "Cordless".  The Vecturo OS 400 will only be available in a corded version (220V) for now, but I would predict that Festool will come out with a cordless, battery model in the future.

Should be an easy task for Festool-Fein.
Because the cordless Fein SuperCut model is already on the market for some time.
They only have to design an other battery socket which fits the Festool batteries.

The spiral is metal wire to dissapate static. If you want smooth you might try hose sleeve
[/quote

it is a suction hose,wire is there so it wont collapse, being so flimsy and light.it would have to be much thicker without the wire,including way stiff and heavy.I was told that the anti static is from graphite

I agree, a cordless version is likely a future option, but first they want to sell you a corded multi-tool.  That way you have to go out and get the cordless version when it becomes available.  They're pulling that now with the cordless TSC saw.  You know they had TSC ready to go at the time of the TS55R launch but held it back after the sales of the R leveled out........

I wish festool made a 6inch planer that could fit in the CMS module.

I wish festool made a 6inch planer that could fit in the CMS module.

That would then be available in North America.

I have been resisting posting this for weeks, but I can't hold it back anymore:

" I wish Festool made a ... lot more items AINA !!! "

There - I said what I have been thinking! Now, will I burn in Heck?

I would like to see a vac in a systainer similar to the Schneider air compressors so I could have it on my sysroll and just have one cart to roll in on my small jobs. Now that would be slick.

THere is one made by Scheppach about the right size, costs 64 Euros bei Amazon.

I don't have a cms (yet!), but I would like to see a compact power feed that came fitted in a systainer.

+1 on that idea

 

[rl4020]

i wish festool made a brushless cxs with more power than the milwaukee fuel 12v.  if they make one they need to compare it to the fuel and make it stronger. Im sure it would sell like hotcakes here in the states.  Its the tool that gets used the most.

 

[Zacharytanner]

How about a sawsall

I wish Festool made a chuck like the Centrotech chuck for 1/4" hex quick connect bits.

I'd really like a chuck to fit my CXS that took standard hex bits without having to use an adapter.
Andrew

A second centrotec chuck that's 'red' or any other colour that's not green, that takes normal 1/4 'snappy' drill bits for those who don't buy in to the centrotec's 'no runout' drill bits

I've been using snappy for the last four years and love the quick change system, but I've bever had any issues with run out
