So, you are saying my Festool dealer would love it if I would only act my age...  [blink] [tongue]

More....  [eek]

I thought i'll buy the angle base and guide rail base for the carvex as i don't need the full kit untill i seen the price of them 2 alone is the same as the full carvex accessories kit.
so...............

1 x Carvex ZH-SYS-PS 400 - 497709 kit on the way

[big grin]

Funny that kit made it into my coming list too. But got erased again to make room for the 850 HL planer, it might get back on the list again again if I can find room in the budget... Congrats on your purchase..
 
I'm not an expert on the English language but can this topic be changed from "what" to "which"? Seems like a popular topic and it annoys me every time I see it.
 
Festool show at Cleveland Tool and Cutter.  Ordered a ETS EC150/5, too bad they were out I would have take. It home today.  Got s great demo of what this sander can do, great first festool sander.
 
Not festool but I did pick up 5 sustainers today from woodcraft at 50% off clearance rack. 2 sys2s, 1 sys3, 1 midi sys2, and a midi Sys3.

Got a bunch of tools packed away cleanly now.

I was going to cut a 1400 Guide Rail down ( I got 3 of them) but instead I thought Id just buy the 800mm so while I was at it I also got a Festool Keyhole bit . FT calls it a Special T Groove bit.

Plus I had to buy more shaker pegs for my Xmas presents so I placed a order with woodcraft and also got some more 8 x 40 dominos maple and oak shaker pegs some hangers to,  while I was at it.
 
I've got too much organisation money I think, just bought 2x Sys 3 Sort 6 sortainers, for a unbeatable price and one more Sys 4 Sort 3. And a Systainer Cart. So Now my master plan stack x2 starting with the Sys Cart, then a  Sys 3 Sort 6,  the Sys 4 Sort 3, a Systainer 4 with DIY insert for handtools, and the Sys 1 BOX is a reality. I will use my Sys 3 Sort 4 as a regular toolbox connected to whatever powetool systainer I'll be using for the job. To me that makes more sense than using a Sys Combi because I'll often need more than a single drawer together with the tool. The Sys 3 Sort 4 will be perfect for this situation, and keep things tight and compact as well..
 
Pending final approval from the "boss lady", I'm pulling the trigger on the new ETS EC 150/5 tonight. Got to drive one today and absolutely fell in love with it. I need to have it in my life now.
 
@Gwarner,

DON'T hold off for the "BOSS LADY"......get it.

I  picked up the ETS EC 125/3 last week.    WAY more powerful then the old ETS125 sander.  Get it.  Get it.  GET IT !   

The old ETS sander is WAY UNDER POWERED !    In my opinion.

Visited 2 dealers today. Drooled over many things but only bought a clamp.

Hahaha thats funny, I just ordered a pair of Pica Dry markers yesterday (1 for my pops) after having the ETS EC 150/5 in my shopping cart for three days.

The markers count since they're on the Festoolproducts.com website right?

Of course they count Stan. They're green! Heck I have three of those Picas. I bought one cause I lost one, which I lost so I bought another and found the other two.

[member=27126]ChrisK1970[/member] I might have to try that maneuver with my RO125 so I can purchase the ETS EC. Then turn around and "find" my RO 125 then have two awesome sanders. I think my girlfriend will believe that one  [big grin]
 
Just ordered a Festool Guide rail FS 3000/2
Yesterday I had my first experience of joining 2 x 1400 rails together to cut down 8'x4' sheet goods.
While I managed to get it all connected and straight it took a bit of time and constant checking when moving it about etc.
So I talked myself (quite easily) into buying a 3m long rail, The 1400s will be perfect for cross cutting 4' sheets along with my 800 rail.

Hmf, a month ago i didn't own a single festool tool. Then i got a great price on a Rotex 150 and the Carvex jigsaw new, along with the DX 93(3 cases of paper), a CT22E vaccuum and a RS 1 C(with 300-400 papers) barely used. 

Couldn't resist... The same guy also gave(!) away all his systainers, both old and new because he didn't use them and was throwing them away. I gladly helped him :)

So i got 7-8 new empty systainers, and a few of the old type.

Can't complain. But i think they are mating when im not in the shop.. Seems like im getting more and more somehow..
