Systainer used on FOX Terra Nova

[festoller]

I am glad they still have Systainers in the 22 century, but it's even more awsome they took them back in time 85 million years.

For those who haven't seen the new Fox TV Show Terra Nova, they show some light grey Systainers 58 minutes from the start.

I noticed when they made it to Terra Nova and were walking to the encampment that there was a guy carrying a Systainer.

85.000.000.000 years old Festool technology!

Is the universe even 85 billion years old? [scratch chin]

 

[nickao]

I think he meant 85 million, hehe.  I think the current consensus is about 13 billion years:

I saw them about 58 minutes from the start in the infirmary and a maxi when they picked up the "slashed" kid!

OK I found them. I am thinking the 58 minutes is without commercials?  I have them at about 88 minutes (with commercials in the US).  A Classic Sys - I on top of a Classic IV, all light gray including the latches, on a table, next to / behind the doctor.

Pretty cool boxes for a futuristic look for the set, though I think T - Locs would have looked even better.

Just imagine, back then maybe UL would let Festool "officially" admit that you can plug any of their tools into the vacuum!

FOX  networks Terra Nova had a scene where Jim Shannon and his wife are carrying  some Systainers 1 and maybe a systainer 3 or 4.  This show, Terra Nova,  is about a group of people from the 24th century that go back in time. So the Systainere are from the year 2410 or something.

So it only takes 300 years for the rest of the world to catch on to what we already know? Lol

WOW They have not changed much in 400 years!

And they don't seem to notice you can clip them together.  [smile]

I feel like people comment on the systainers more than the tools.  I remember when I first saw one about 4 years ago I was pretty confused by it.  A cross between a 90's computer and futuristic carrying case...

Last night I was showing my shop to a buddy and he commented on the systainers.  "So there are tools in those things?  They all clip together like that?"

He was more impressed by the boxes than the tools themselves.

She needs the new t-loc with a top handle.

Now, I like to say for all the one who says the systainer is expensive!
look at the show they are using the classic systainer line in 400 years? and still look like new.
Don't invest your money in the bank, buy more systainer your future generation will thank you
