Hi All
Used my Festool UK voucher to purchase the above combo to make more use of my CMS. I had a dewalt table saw at the end of two MFT3's but constantly replacing it with the CMS to run the router module. The Dewalt extraction was pretty poor so it was time for it to go.
I have a TS55 so the TS75 will be CMS use only.
Arrived and set up today and cannot express how delighted I am.
The kit itself is lovely, nicely machined and the dust extraction is absolutely superb!
The extension VB fence is for width as I have the MFT's to the rear for support, it feels solid and was super easy to fit and calibrate (the front rail has a scale for rip dimensions).
I haven't ordered the stopper fence and I'll wait to see how I get on with the angle head fence that comes with the CMS insert but so far with the test cuts I'm delighted.
I haven't done any angled cuts yet and I know some previous posts have said its a weakness of the set up. I was thinking that I'll simply remove the insert, set the angle and replace it.
Did I say the dust extraction was superb!
Cheers.
