Posting a link to the Festool E-Kat (electronic parts catalog)

[Administrator_JSVN]

It came up in conversation recently that there is an issue when attempting to post a link to the Festool E-Kat which is an online catalog of spare parts for our tools.  You can use the link below to link directly to a particular product.  Unfortunately, I don't think there is a simpler or easier way to do this.  Here is a direct link for the TS 55, for instance.

http://ekat.festool.com/EKAT_USA/jsp/main.jsp?doAction=start&partLang=en&docuLang=en&locale=en_EN&viewerType=6&k_vari_top=491595&k_ver_top=&verticalLayout=1&HOOK_URL=&currency=USD&filter_F_Typ1=on&filterValues_F_Typ1=US&currencyKey=US

You must change the highlighted product number with the product number as listed in the E-Kat which is not the same as the catalog product number.  For instance, the T 15+3 cordless drill appears as product number 494659 in the E-Kat.  So, the direct link would be:

http://ekat.festool.com/EKAT_USA/jsp/main.jsp?doAction=start&partLang=en&docuLang=en&locale=en_EN&viewerType=6&k_vari_top=494659&k_ver_top=&verticalLayout=1&HOOK_URL=&currency=USD&filter_F_Typ1=on&filterValues_F_Typ1=US&currencyKey=US

With the new web address for the EKAT system you will need to use the following and swap out the part number as described above:

http://ekat.festool.com/EKAT/jsp/main.jsp?doAction=start&partLang=en&docuLang=en&locale=en_EN&viewerType=6&k_vari_top=491595&k_ver_top=&image=0&k_lfdnr=&nodeId=child&verticalLayout=1&HOOK_URL=&currency=USD&filter_F_Typ1=on&filterValues_F_Typ1=US&currencyKey=US

Awesome Corwin... never noticed this thread the first time.  I could use this a lot.  Off to back-patch my blog links... d'oh!
