Recon Sales: Black Friday Blowout - Now through Cyber Monday

[mclaeys]

Picked up a C15 drill set for me. I have a the special Centrotec bit set from a few years ago, so now I can put it all to good use. I was planning on getting the new Festool CT cyclone, so that's back on the list.

For those that just got a planex, I picked one up off local craigslist and I use a 36mm hose and CT 36 with planex autoclean air filter, no issues.

Does anyone know what the difference is between festool 575372 vs 561730 track saws?
Thanks,

Both are TSC saws, both are basic saws, as in no batteries, no charger, no rail. Both are also metric. The 561730 is circa 2016. The 575372 is from a later date. That’s all I know. Maybe it’s just a change in packaging?

I was looking at TSC saws in August. If I recall correctly the difference is the “bedding” or liner for the systainer

 

[RKA]

That sounds right.  The airstream chargers are a little bigger, so they have modified the insert to accommodate?

Hello, could you please tell me if you will have the bigger domino or the rotex 150 on there? I've never been able to afford anything festool. I promised my grandma that I would build her several pieces of furniture, including a large flag display for my grandpa that was in ww2.

The numbers on this have changed a few times, and I'm struggling to track down the specifics on this one. They're both metric, pre-Airstream versions. On occasion, numbers will change without any actual change to the tool or scope of delivery.

Any idea when the tools will start shipping?

When I called Festool yesterday they said it would take a few days to get the orders all entered, but that shipping would start soon thereafter.

I purchased the RO 90 this past Friday during the sale and received it today.  It appears to be brand new! I am a happy camper.

 

[DeformedTree]

Received my orders today.  They look ok, bit dust and such here and there, but basically look never used. 

One thing I would suggest to Festool is to get some new cardboard boxes. Ones without "Festool" down the side in giant letters.  While 99+% of the population is unlikely to have ever heard of the company (think it's party supplies or some service to test for colon cancer) , some might know what "Festool" is.  When I can see whats on my porch from the street driving along, that isn't a good plan in this age of package theft.  No one needs "Festool" on the side of shipping boxes, it only helps thieves.  And no, I don't want signature hell.

Received my DTSC 400 and STL 450 yesterday, both looked brand spanking new.  Tripod is coming from Euro nest week, should have ordered adapter from there to but it arrives today from Toolnut, gonna light up my life (or work at least).

Small correction, put the Planex together, it's definitely been used, there is drywall dust down the inside of it, impressive cleaning job on the outside of it. There is also a screw rattling in the systainer, looks to be the same socket cap screw used to hold the sanding head/pad on.  Do planex have come with a spare of that screw? Or is this an IKEA like thing where sometimes you just get some random quantity of extra parts.

I do have a question for festool.  So the TS55 had a green sticker on it that from looking means it was checked for the recall.  On the systainer for the Planex there is a similar but solid red dot on the label of the systainer, what does this red dot mean?

Weird that some people got their items already and I haven’t even received a shipping notice.  Yet, my card was charged early in the week and my order was placed last Friday.

Unless things have changed from past programs there very possibly will not be a shipping notice.  I wouldn’t worry if I were you.

Log into the recon website and see if your order states "Fulfilled". If so it has been shipped.

I sent a request for a tracking number last week to Festool and never heard back. Fortunately My UPS gave me a shipment tracking number this morning. Since I am going to be out of town, I redirected the package to be held for pickup.

I too ordered on black Friday and have yet to get any updates or shipping notification. My card was charged as well but stull sitting in the unfulfilled status. I sent an email and nothing. Hope to hear something soon.

This happens to me most times when getting something off the recon site.
