What Festool Did You buy Today?

[runningjames]

Thanks, I will post pictures when I get back in town on Sunday.

Just got a  OF1010 router with a 800 rail .

Oh, where to start!  [big grin]

I recently started renovating my house. Here in Switzerland, it's so horrendously expensive to hire craftsmen (you might face USD 100 or more an hour even for very simple work - I was quoted USD 5000 to get two flights of stairs sanded...), so I decided to just bite the bullet and learn to do stuff myself.

I initially got a Trion and RTS 300 super cheap (75% off at my local store, must have been some deadstock as they usually don't carry Festool) and realized how good these tools were in comparison to my old Einhell and Bosch stuff I had since before for fixing minor things around the house. So now I'm redoing the kitchen and got the T 18+3, OF 1010 and am currently waiting for a Rotex 150 for some stairs and very minor concrete touch-up.

Given all the tools I have now, I decided I might as well take up woodworking as a hobby; I grew tired of computer games a few years ago and need to fill those precious few hours of free time with something rewarding.

Welcome! A familiar story to my ears

On topic: I ordered an installers set 2015 today, already got postage confirmation a few hours later, yay!

Finally got myself a proper vac, a CT 26 and a box of dust bags for it. Took a month and a half to get to my shore but hey it was worth the wait, no more leaning down turning a vac on and off again.

 

[Coliban]

The CTL Midi Vac, because i recently bought a DF500 and a OF1010, and they are producing a lot of dust. I still think, maybe the CTL Sys would have been better, because of its size and flexibility, but then i think also, this (ctl midi)is the best solution because of the capacity.

A demo used MFT/3, parfdogs and a new rip fence for the CS50

Picked up a couple of bits today sys roll, 80t blade for the kapex and a couple of Zobo bits[attachimg=1]

My husband is very happy with all the research I've done and the new toys, I mean tools, that I procured for him. Bits and pieces have been coming in because I got the Planex with an extra extention used yesterday and the Ultimate Dust Deputy came a few days ago. The motherload come today:
Midi Dust Extractor
Planex hose and harness
Pad sets
DTS 400
Plenty of sanding grit to keep us going for a while. Thanks to Tom for the assortment package  [big grin]

I know there's a 15 year old boy in the house that can't wait for us to put it to good use and finish up his room reno.

Thank you all for being so helpful to me!

Tsc 55 li plunge saw

 

[Holmz]

15 days ago some more systainers and a roller base and a trolly...
I am >1/2 through the 30 day trial and no know on the door from the postman.

I doubt I will be returning them, but I would like them.

 

[#Tee]

finally got a attic lid! thanks to www.tool-home.com from Tom!

No more rail joining!  Bought the 118" rail.  I cut way too many full sheets...96" and 120".  Also bit the bullet on  the 2200 as I was able to buy the metric accessory kit, new in old style systainer, for $190.00.  Anybody want to buy a PC 7518?  I am keeping the one in my Benchdog table raiser.

 

[plymburner]

I bought a TS 55 track saw for replacing floors in my home. I have subfloor to remove and replace as well as install hardwood flooring.

Nice...

But I'm curious, it looks like you went with a full length NA style fence. I thought Europeans prefer a half fence that is adjusted to just clear the rear of the blade.
I'm curious why you chose a full length fence?
The reason I'm asking is because I have both extrusions. I used to use the full length and changed to the half fence.

Just finished a spending spree as I bought in the past week:

TSC 55 kit with the holey rail
T18 Basic
Used right angle and eccentric chucks

And earlier this summer the Kapex!

I'm going to receive one of my larger orders in a few days..

Sys Roll

Sys 1 Box

Systainer 4x2, plan to make my own inserts like the SYS-HWZ

Sortainer Sys 3-Sort 4

Battery pack for my Ti impact driver 15v 5.2Ah

DC UNI FF depth stop chuck for the PDC 18 drill, works with the CSX drill too..

Festool 18V HKC 55 Li 5.2 EB Plus FSK 420

the FSK 250

Extra blade for the HKC 55 W32.

I mixed up some originization elements with some long wanted accessories for the drills I own, the SYS-Roll will come in handy for getting around to jobs I have within 10min. walking distance.

As the price list got larger I dumped getting the Syslite KAL 2, Sys toolbox 1 and 2, etc. I think though I've got a good mix of tools and organisation and accessories..

Probably won't get much else before Christmas.. Then I'll be looking for either a OF2200 or a Domino..
