Systainer modifiable insert

[pugilato]

Most of the woodworking I do is in the field, and I am always nervous about loosing the Festool clamps and dogs that I have (having these clamps in a Ziploc offends my sense of order). I am therefore going to buy a systainer for clamps, I think number 2. Some months ago there was some discussion about inserts that the user cuts to size for the gizmo going in the hole (there was a video). Could not find it using the search function, and I am interested in this insert material.

Can someone point the way if you remember what I'm talking about? Also, I would be interested in seeing clever adaptations for systainers. I am thinking planes, power tools that didnt come with a case, etc.

Search for the word Kaizen foam. It can be purchased at Fastcap

many thanks

I know many people have mentioned they are having difficulty finding kaizen foam in stock.

If you have any trouble, we have it here, with other fastcap accessories here

Do you ship to Puerto Rico? This is an ongoing problem for me...

 

[TOOLTOWN]

Oh, I didn't notice that.  [eek]

I will check with the boss in the AM, but I think we might be able to.

I will let you know once I know.

Unfortunately we are not shipping out of the country at this time.

Sorry about that.

Isn't Puerto Rico part of the US?  I sold something on ebay and thought shipping would be expensive, but USPS shipping was the same price to Puerto Rico as lower 48.

Hey Pugilato

not sure is you have found a way to get kaizen foam but you may want to contact this guy Brian, i think he has shipped out to the UK for other guys on the forum

get in touch with him through ebay, let him know you are on the Festoolownersgroup and i would think he might be able to hook you up

i had started a post about it a little while ago but not sure if you ever saw it;

good luck and i i hope it works out for you

The USPS does ship to Puerto Rico.  Go to USPS.COM and go to package shipping just like you would for any other package.
