Hello to all,
I am a "newbie" not only to Festools but to wood working /DIY projects. I jumped into festools brand after seeing, reading and then fearfully jumping head first (few items purchased and others arriving today ).
The intend is to build as much as my skill and time allow me too in my second home in Atlanta, Ga. and after receiving some quotes for some custom built-in book shelves (over $9K), and being a first time basement owner. I intend to take on as much as possible. I've singed up for some wood working classes at wood craft and Rocklers and have given myself a year to complete most projects.
I current;y purchased the CT26, TS 55, OF1400, MFT/3 and I'm considering buying the Domino. My questions lies in which one would suite me best for my projects.
Projects:
Bed Headboard
"built-ins" next to fireplace (60" wide by 12' x2)
Laundry room Cabinets
Man-cave office desk and Book shelves
Man-cave Small bar
Closet Organizer
Guess Room (murphy bed)
Patio deck (Big Green egg ) nest
Mitre saw (dewalt 718) rolling table
Delta press drill Rolling Table
Gun Cabinet display
Small folding computer desk (14" deep x32W)
and a few others
Will the 500 suffice for these projects or should I go for the XL?
Also considering the CMS and LR 32 (suggestions welcomed).
(Additional equipment to be purchase as projects merits--planer, etc.)
Current tools:
DEwalt 718 Mitter
Rigid Sanders (orbital, etc)
Delta Press Drill
DEwalt batt drills and saw
Large air compressor and some airtools (grinder, paint sprayer, finishing nail gun)
Ryobi table saw (x-mas gift in 2000) that can't make two of the same cuts ;-(
Thank you all for your help.
