Review of the Festool CC

[Bob Marino]

I had an episode yesterday that attests to the durability of the Festool CC, so I thought I should add something to the review.

I dropped one of my CCs from about 3 metres up on a step ladder to the sidewalk below and the only damage was a chipped rim.  Please don't ask why I was carless enough to have a CC in such a spot in the first place. :-[

Given that my five CCs (all gifts from Bob Marino) are among the most valued items in my shop, I decided to try to fix the damaged one.  I ground down the jagged part using my Festool Deltex 93 sander and it is now safe to use again.

Frank,

Those cups are tough and wish Festool still had them. I use mine every day - even the chipped ones!

Bob,

You need to send them to Frank P. for a tune-up before you get a bloody lip from one of those chipped edges!.
