More info and pics later, but looks like the summer doldrums are coming to an end and Festool has some new products for the Fall. Looking good.
See below for the down and dirty. All will be available for pre-order and cards will not be charged until shipped.
Continuing to raise the bar in performance, Festool has made some improvements to the CT MINI and MIDI. New units come standard with a HEPA filter factory installed and the new self-cleaning filter bags that were introduced last year in the CT 26 and CT 36. And, the best part... the price remains unchanged. Item numbers too.
Completing the Festool Dust Extractor lineup for 2011 is the all new CT 48, a 12.7 gallon workhorse with HEPA filters, Self-Cleaning Filter Bag design and Best-in-Class Suction, not to mention all the other features that combine to make Festool CT Dust Extractors the industry standard. The new CT 48 extends the benefits of the CT 26 and CT 36 up to a capacity that is ideally suited for the workshop, yet plenty manageable for the jobsite
