The Festool Router Rollercoaster: How I Ended Up Right Back Where I Started

[SoonerFan]

I think it's a pretty safe guarantee that when you do get an OF2200, the very first thing you'll think is "why the hell didn't I get this sooner?"!

Everything's better with an OF2200, birds are chirpier, sunlight is warmer and brighter, Winter's shorter! ;-)

A while back you convinced to get a Lamello Zeta P2 which I am currently planning as my next tool purchase. Now you are persuading me to get an OF2200. I like the way you think. My wallet does not

You're so right. I figured out that the domed piece has to come out to fit the D27. Thanks.

And by the way, these guys are a "bad influence" on routers. When I first came here, I had one router (Makita 701). Now, I've got three trim routers, three 1/2" routers, a Milwaukee 5625 in a router table - and I still think I need at least two of the Festools!

Dude, that's only 7..... We can definitely pressure you more.
Heck, I have 5 Festool routers alone That might change some day, I don't really need the duplicates anymore

That's funny, right there.

You forgot the Unicorns appearing.

I suppose the more realistic analogy would be Chuck Norris and Fred Astaire! ;-)

Chuck Norris once killed two stones with one bird!

You will seriously be amazed by the Lamello when you get it, it's an incredible tool, and a marvel of engineering.

Kinda like the OF2200! ;-)

@rmhinden and @luvmytoolz my decision to get the Lamello Zeta P2 started just like this…reading all the positive comments about it on FOG. Maybe I should quit reviewing this thread because it might convince I do actually “need” an OF2200.

I have a Zeta P2, it is great at what it does. This week we used the Divario for the first time, every operation was done with the machine.
