How to buy Festool products with lies.

And the honest truth is that you bought it, put it in the dining room, then told her the story of the video and how you'd win more than you spent.  Clever.

Just occurred to me an hour ago - (whilst mowing its amaizing where the mind travels.).

Anyway - I wonder what 'line' Kev uses!!   [big grin]
 
Rule #1.... NEVER allow your spouse to take a picture of you in your workshop. Otherwise there will be documentary evidence she can refer to when she asks if that Laguna Italian 20" bandsaw is the one you've always had? Or "wasn't that jointer thing green before...now it's red, and I always thought a hammer was a hand tool??" [huh]

Rule#2.... Never stop saying "I can make that" when she wants to spend $$ on furniture, kitchen supplies, repairmen, etc..  Also be sure to point out "deficiencies" in store-bought wood products that you assure her you can "fix" or "improve"! [tongue]

Rule#3... Gift certificates to expensive Christmas decoration stores works wonders if your wife is as much of an Xmas fetishist as mine! ($700 certificate for high-end Cathy Wolfhart Christmas store here in Germany stopped all questions about any of MY tools this year!!) [wink]

Rule#4... The "gift" of a Festool CT22 Dust Extractor for use as a house vacuum gets her acclimated to the color Green! All future Festool purchases are never questioned! [big grin]

Rule#5... NEVER, NEVER, NEVER miss a birthday, anniversary, or holiday! She will NEVER NEVER NEVER forget that you did, and will "remind" you at inappropriate occasions! [eek]

I have to be VERY careful in dealing with LOML because woodworking is only one of "three" expensive hobbies of mine. The others are photography, and my airplane!! [bite tongue]
