Interesting multifunction cart

dang it! i had been thinking about something similar for a couple days. there goes my revolution.
 
nice little cart there. i might build one. probably put t tracks around the top and kreg clamp table extrusions on the edges for their clamps etc. a row of dog holes down the side for clamping things that way.
 
Ya I've been trying to dream up something similar. I need to transport At least two stacks possibly four including a midi. Wonder if there's a way to join several such carts to make a larger one to move the whole lot in one go. And break them apart for transport. Other requirements, dedicated power bar and the ability to use a key lock to secure the tools.
Still, dreaming I guess
 
Looks like someone built a better sysport.  Is it cheaper than the Fes?  Naina is my guess  ;D
 
Nice idea.

When I build one I'll make sure I can detach or rotate the handle so there is nothing preventing to put large boards on top when I use the cart as an extension of my MFT !!!
 
They don't list prices or dealers on their site which seems to be under construction.

Anyone found more information? I will try to get a feedback from the site.
 
Green, green, green ... Festool are subtle with its use - the logo and the functioning controls.

I like the cart - but not the colour  [eek]

(but maybe tats just me)
 
If you used 8020 extrusions for the frame, would it be too heavy to easily lift into a vehicle for transport?

I've never worked with 8020 products. Would it be a good application to attach the drawer rails so you could also reposition the location of the slides to accommodate different sized systainers?
 
I would assume yes, since there are multiple scews and bolts available, although the price will be quite high.

If 30x30 mm is enough it would of course be be very light and look great.

One should make a Sketchup model.
 
As Festooler says, the 30x30mm 8020 extrusions are probably a good size for this small cart.  There are a wide range of 8020 options for drawer slides, etc.  There are a wide range of extrusion sizes available, trading strength for weight.  Their products aren't inexpensive but offer a lot of flexibility and are nice looking -- something that would promote a professional appearance to customers.
 
You'll find most of the 8020 extrusions in the 3d warehouse. So it should be easy to draw a model.

You could use the 8020 as frame attach common drawer slides with the proper screws and nuts (they could be adjustable) and make wood drawers as well as side and back covers from particle board in a nice Festool grey. The right size will perfectly fit into the extrusion, as shown on many other designs with 8020 here in the forum. A top with MFT holes and a bottom to attach some casters.
 
Like it, except for all the stuff hanging off the sides. Too messy.

Also, does everyone in Germany move so slow and carefully? These videos get a little surreal!

The writing seems like it is Polish, but I'm not 100%. 

4:18 min -  you would NEVER see a company here advertising the use of systainers as a step stool to get on top of a rolling cart. 

I am guilty of using them as a step stool, but I doubt Tanos/ Festool advertise that. 

It doesn't seem like it would be too hard to make.  I would like to see it with some nicer casters and wheels, and some more rugged slides.

I would not stand on a stack like that at my weight.  Of course that guy might weigh in at 180 tops.
 
With google's help here's the translation, the site was just opened February 2nd and most of it is still under construction:

Our mobile workshop for carpenters, mechanics, is a unique solution based on a rigid, durable frame and modular design allows for easy adjustment to meet your needs, so as to have
everything under one roof

    ability to accommodate different size boxes / drawers
    easy transportation by using a unique vehicle hitch
    turning the key is a fast security lock from slipping out of drawers and theft of equipment
    pockets of strong material allows to deploy their tools according to taste
    Strong Stage allows for minor changes in your home
    green, the bright color makes it difficult to lose
    and after work, you can bet on it ... beer

I like the beer part!
 
Some news!

I emailed the owner about prices and dealers and he answered back.

Obviously he has a patend on this cart and the production is on hold, but it could be manufactured in Polland if there's enough interest.

One search revealed a Polish site that mentions a price of $460:

For $460 not to mention shipping, the 8020 version starts to look cheaper and maybe even better.
