That thing is so freakin big, when you're girlfriend kicks you out of the bedroom, you'll have to sleep on that because you won't have room for a couch.  [big grin]

By the way, does that come in the new T-Loc systainer too?

I knew you would come with something like that!  It has a vacuum bed! Might drill one of the holes bigger for when I have to sleep on it a girlfriend replacement!  HAAHAA!

Does any  1 know how much that CNC actually costs??!  I have been lookin round I cnt find a price I have sent the company an email! I am just to impatiant to wait for a reply lol.  I want a CNC for as cheap aspossible but with a good spec this one doenst look as expensive as some other I have seen lol and does what I want it to do.
 
OKay! Out of my price range! Second hand one! 4 years old! is 50 000USD which is 32 000GBP  so an New one will be more than that!  I was hoping new would be 32000 or less!

DAM IT!!!!

I gues ill be going back to buying festool toys!

Yep, I plan on showing the official pricelist for a 911 to my wife, and then tell her the sooooooo very cheap price for a used nice one.

Cheers, and merry Christmas,

Eduard,

I'm afraid dreaming will have to suffice, 'cos the VAC SYS won't be available in the US at any time, apparently.

Festool tried to get UL approval for it & failed. Your only hope is that at some point Festool redesign it to accomodate the areas that were a problem for the UL (whatever they were), but that would be years away, if ever.

That is not cool at all  [crying] [crying] [crying]
 
You can order one from Schmalz in the US.  I believe that Schmalz might be the manufacturer for Festool.  The heads look the same and the base unit is similar and Schmalz is a German company.  Pricing adds up quickly when you start adding the different accessories, but you can get a discount from the sales rep.  They offer a version that works on compressed air and one that runs on a vacuum pump.  There are two bases available too -- one that uses suction to hold itself to the bench (similar to the Festool) and one that you clamp manually.  I have been contemplating this for awhile and might go that route since the Vac Sys seems like it will remail NAINA.

Here is a link to the US web site and the multi-clamp that is available:

A new toy!  Okay not festool and not a powertool but I will still be using it for work though

Just showing of my new toy really! Took me AGES to work out how to resize the image on the Imac! Googled it and every one on forums just talk about cropping I think they think cropping is resizing bloody idiots okay it does resize but you loose parts of your image. Any way I figured it out my self got bit angry! Here is my first image upload on my Imac

In the USA we have two more months to wait for the Rotex 90. The count down continues.

Bummer that the the Sys-vac comes in the old style systainer.

yeah I asked my dealer if they where planning on doing it in a T-loc and he said no  but still got out next's years catalogue to make sure and in the new catalogue it is still in the old systainer.
