HELP! I am SO sick......

Frank I am here to help. The only way to beat this is to go cold turkey  I am willing to be your sponsor just send all your Festools to my place then as I see you are getting better I will ship them back a little at a time. Now this may take several years but I feel it's the least I can do to help a brother fogger out. Just pm me for my address then I can move them to an undisclosed location for safe keeping until you are in a better state of mind. No need to contact me after you have shipped I will know when the time is right. And if you have an over lapse just send the Festools to. It's the only way.

Perfect 'Therapy' Suggestion....
 
Dang it!  Too late.... [crying]

Fell off the wagon and ordered a RO150 today from Uncle Bob. [tongue]

Have two day shipping to Georgia where I need it for the house we're renting to do some quick stuff before I head back to Nigeria, where I'm safe from looking at my Festools....at least in person! [blink]

Done with sanders.... (I think) RO90, ETS125, ETS150/3, RO150, LS130, and DTS400...all with Granat assortments!)  Still need a 5" and Delta insert for abrasives with their associated systainters.

Done with Dominos.  (Nothing left until the 600 comes out! [tongue]) Have all three domino assortments with their associated bits. Domiplates enroute!  The one for the 500 due on the Big Brown Truck within the next two hours. The 700 pair in the next two days.

Done with Drilling Options. (Until new ones present themselves) CXS, T18 +3, PDC, BHC

Done with Jigsaws. PSC420 with accessory kit.

Done with Vaccum Clamping System. System plus second attaching unit, extra vacuum form pads, and two mounting  systems for MFT/3 table.

Done with power units. ASA5000 Boom arm and Energy/Air box.

Done with Edge Banding Unit.  Conturo KA65 with accessory kit, MFT/3 insert and template, kit for angled edging.

Done with limited editions. Centronic Installers kit, Festool Centronic Ratchet set, Festool 10-piece Router bit set, wood and masonry bit sets, toolie(s), Swiss Knive(s), Safety glasses, Mini-Cooper, Folding Rules, Stabila Levels - long and short, blade bags, cooltainer.

Close to done with Track Saws. Have TS55 REQ, TSC55. Need TS75

Close to done on Hand Planers. Have the 65. Need the HL850

STILL WORK TO BE DONE FOR THE ADDICTION:
Kapex
Routers... Have the OF1400, need MFK700, OF1010, and OF2200
MFT/3 Tables....need at least one more, maybe three.
LR32 System Set
More Sortainers... never have enough!
Longer Tracks. Already have the holy rail
CT48 for the attic (Through hose to the ASA5000.
CT-Midi dedicated to Kapex
Three more SysCarts.

OF NO INTEREST....DESPITE MY ADDICTION! [eek]
SysPorts
CMS modules

I'm just hoping that after completing my addictive purchases above, that Festool will PLEASE introduce NEW and Exciting tools that will help me avoid serious withdrawal symptoms!

Like a smoker who is down to his last two cigarettes, and nowhere to get another pack close by, I'm starting to sweat as I get closer to the end! [scared]

Thank you Festooltim for your more than generous offer!  I would happily take you up on your support offer if only I had some guts and will power. I don't!  I've sunk to the pits of my addiction, but until I hit total bottom, I'm still feeding it! [embarassed]

Help!

Frank

 
Frank - I think you're an rs200 and a bs105 short of a sander family [wink]
 
You forgot the ZOBO Forstner bit set which is made in Switzerland! I feel this oversight demonstrates some hope for you with the only possible solution for rehabilitation to be total bankruptcy!!!

Umm....nope.

Just forgot to add it to my list.  OF COURSE I have the ZOBO set! [big grin]

Also have the FAMAG Bormax forstner set. As good as Festool...and maybe even a smidge better.

Cheers,

Frank

    What you really need now is to book or schedule time for a class at the Festool Headquarters in Ind. when one becomes available. This is your NEXT best purchase, a real game changer Frank for most of us.
There, besides meeting Shane and others[ yes, he really exists, not just a gnome on the internet.. [poke]], you'll take a few days with other Festool fans and learn from one of the trainers/instructors about how to get to most from their tools.  You'll be surrounded by systainers back in the shop, causing EVEN more envy and lust[which I can't help you with, and am in NO way enabling you to buy more things...] But mostly, you'll get a fast track on many tools, picking up knowledge that could take awhile on your own to acquire.
