They still have the HL850 but the new ELH65 is basically just smaller for "one-handed operation". It has almost all the same features as the 850.

I tried to enter your drawing and sign up for your newsletter and got the following "rejection" notice on my PC:

Secure Connection Failed

The certificate is only valid for beavertools.com

    * This could be a problem with the server's configuration, or it could be someone trying to impersonate the server.

Then, if I click on the "add security exception" button in my Firefox browser, I get a second warning that states that legitimate sites WILL NOT ASK for this information. 

So, what gives with your "give away" offer?  Has someone hijacked your link?

Same thing happened to me.  Thanks for having the promotion.

Well, this sounds interesting:

The Festool KAPEX Extension Set provides elongated material support w/ flip stops for accurate and repeatable cuts. It attaches to the crown stops and comes with a stabilizer bar to connect it to the MFT. Sold as a set.

I can't find a picture of those stabilizer bars yet, I wonder if they're the same as the stabilizers for the mft3. I hope they'll fit the mft800 aswell, and not just the mft-kapex.

According to the manual,

Not sure if this helps

 

[TJtools]

We fixed the link for anyone who couldnt get through to sign up for the give away. Sorry about that.

 

[sw1211]

If you're referring to the stabilizer bar (1.13) when you say cross brace, it looks adjustable

[Frank-Jan]

Aha, yes the 1.13, that's new. I think that those things will be a real improvement, the extension only attaches to the crown stop with one nut, and can easily be bumped out of allignment.
I'm going to a building fair in Holland  the 10th of february, festool has a stand there, I'll ask them when the things will be available over here.

For those interested in getting the extensions, I can recommend getting an extra pair of the support brackets (number 1.4 in the picture) (you'll als need to order the nuts and thumbscrews)

 

[Frank-Jan]

I just returned from the building fair I spoke of earlier. I mentioned I saw the stabilisers on the American version of the stand, and asked if it was possible to order them and mount them on my mft800. The festool guy said he would have them send to my dealer free of charge.  ;D
