my slippery slope

[Alan m]

Hi all
I decided to start this thread to show you all to tools and accessories I have bought. This will be an ongoing thread hopefully (economic situation). I don’t intend to only post festool stuff here so please don’t eat me if an odd coloured tool pops up.

First up is a wood peckers router table top and miter gauge to go with the ls positioned I got a while back.

I bought a small wee compressor for small jobs and for the 18 gauge nailer I have. This is too small for anything else but will be handy for site work. I planned on taking it apart before I bought it and mounting it in a systainer along with the guns and hoses. Not sure now if this will happen or not as it is only a 6 liter tank which might be too small to have the compressor removed.

I just got some t loc systainers

One sys 2
2 sys 3
1 sys4
1 sys5
A roller board
I plan on putting non festool tools in these and make up a few tool sets that I can take on site and have all the parts needed in one sys. The sys 5 will be a mobile router table with a lift and dw625 router in it (when I get the lift soon)

T-loc router table... sounds interesting.  I'll have to see it completed to fully understand.  Hook up a dust collection hose to the bottom and attach a phenolic top to the top?  I haven't figured out how the router is mounted so that it is accessible when you open the lid, without the motor hitting the front edge.

Make sure to get a Sys-planer too!

I would say make sure to get the First Aid systainer!

How are you liking your LS positioner?

 

[Alan m]

ls positioner is great. havent used it for all the joints yet just the normal stuff. there is a thread on a router table in a classsic sys a while back

Hmm.  I searched for "router table systainer" without quotations and didn't find it.  I'd be curious to see this if anyone knows where to find a picture.

Thanks Peter.  That is quite a recent thread too.  I missed it somehow.

So Alan, will you make do without an T-Loc extension or are they now available?

 

[Alan m]

dont know if the extention piece is available yet or not if ever.  [poke] [poke] [poke] shane. i plan on mounting the router table top a small bit above flush with the top of the systainer edge. i will have to open the top and put on the fence to use it . when the extention piece is available i will get one and leave the fence on. waiting for the incra router lift to be imported before i make it.
