na na na naina na na ... hey jude

[Kev]

About to open the boxes, probably one of the best "little boy inside" moments with new Festools ...

[attachimg=#1]

[wink] [big grin]

 

[wow]

That's just mean! At least show us the goodies so we can live vicariously through you!

 

[Kev]

I will [smile]

It's just late here in Oz and raining ... and I'm on my third glass of red [wink]

The boxes are CMS-GE, TS75 CMS module, sliding table, and MFS400, Systainers are TS75 and the obvious SYS 1 MFT top (plus a few other visible toys).

I don't really mean to tease or be mean to na, just letting you know I've finally bit the bullet on CMS+TS75 over the CS70. This way if I do ultimately put the Hammer slider in my garage I'm not creating too much redundancy!

 

[batcave]

Have fun. There's a good chance your getting hammered!

 

[Kev]

Hah [wink]

I will certainly get Hammered one day ... it's a space problem, not one of inclination!

Yes we can see the space problem in the racks and racks behind!    [smile]

Congratulations on  having resolved this decision, I know you have been tossing it around for quite some time.

Enjoy. [thumbs up]

Isn't that the truth [embarassed]

The demo at Northern Abrasives the other night pushed me along (that and a job at home I can't really put off any longer!)

Not yet [sad] coz I've also got the MFT/3-VL thingy, I was going to see what it's like with the module in the two different tables ... and also play with it using UG extensions as out-feed for a trial.

(yeh - will probably get the extension tables anyway)

Shame there's two different length rip fences - I just got the shorter one for the standalone CMS for now.

Looking at the CMS module I'm a little perplexed why the couldn't make one CMS unit that works for both saws - sure it'd need different lifts and mage different bracket holes, etc, but then there'd only be a very slightly longer blade slot for the 55 [blink] [huh]

I'm pleasantly surprised with setup speed, though I haven't checked for accuracy of cut yet in default setup.

 

[Kev]

For those that want to see inside the boxes.

Obviously the only actual naina is the CMS TS75 module (and the rip fence may be naina too)

 

[Kev]

What's this silly forum software doing with image orientation ?  [eek] ... I checked these ones before I loaded them [embarassed]

Congratulation ! I bet you can not sleep at night and want to get up early ........  Hopefully I can post a picture like yours in May. I get about 5000 euros for my B'day sent from my parents every year. The exchange rate at the time will determine how much Festool stuff I will be able to purchase ....... May be someone can give me a recommendation re dealers in the Brisbane area?

Thanks again Peter - I think champagne has induced dysfunction on my part [embarassed] ... hic!

(but it is Saturday arvo after all)

Looks like you could rip one any time now.

I like the looks of that setup. Is the fence on a scale, or do you have to measure each time it is moved?
