...the sound/light show you get when you hit your power cord with your TS55....

D’oh!

Cheers,

Another excuse to explain to my wife why I need to go cordless.  Thanks for the idea [wink]

Just do the same as Rob and you're cordless in a jiffy.

Hi Rob,

That's definitely annoying, but the plus side is that it isn't an integral cord as on most other-branded tools.

However, I'm pleased to see that you have some time off from running your great company to actually use some of your goodies!

Regards, Dick

You can get replacement cords from Festool dealers  [eek].  Hope your saw is ok.

Rob, be honest, you were just following your marketing departments request for how to promote cutting the cord!

Thanks for the tip Peter.... [unsure]

Cost me a few hundred bucks, 'cause I had to buy one of the new hoses, and a few clamps too.....

Now - if only the saw used the same plug-it as the sanders, I wouldn't have had to stop working.... what kind of design choice was that??

Yet another great reason to get that cord attached/wrapped with the hose!
 
I ran over the cord for an electric mower after moving from a house with a tiny yard to a house with an acre of grass. I’d been mowing for about 4 hours and was about 1/2 done. I was exhausted, it was getting dark, and I mowed the cord.

It was a major flash bang experience. A stiff drink and I showered and went to bed.

The next day, I bought a really big gasoline mower with a battery starter.

That's what you get when you dance in your shop with your TS55.  [big grin]
