What Festool did you get for Christmas?

SW130p you are going love your saw.  I'm sure you will have the fever after using it.

My wife gave me mine also.  Tom it looks like you got a nice stock of extra blades with yours, that is a nice bonus.

I didn't get any festool but i did get a little money which takes my current fund up to £1200.
I just don't know what to spend it on, I've got all the must haves and now I'm on the it'd be nice to haves. Was think cms with router module but it's a lot of bees and honey for something I'll only use occasionally.

Same here and don't like my current router table, use it but not confidently if you know what I mean. And it doesn't take my 1010 or 1400!
Have reviewed the CMS a lot in recent weeks and almost ready to press go.
I see it as yet another system. I'll take router insert first to replace my old unit and use the 1400 in it. I can see me then buying the TS75 and module to replace current portable "yellow" table saw when it dies.
I'm thinking CMS -GE and not the VL. Although I have MFT/3's I think the separate unit is the way to go.
I'm away on hols at moment but reckon when I get back it's gonna be the CMS-GE, router module, sliding table, extension table, guide system and hoses.
I don't think we can buy it as a set in the UK..
Happy Christmas from a very warm and Sunny Gran Canaria.

Yep the VL doesn't seem like a good idea there's not much of a saving either over the ge. I have the yellow table saw too and I hate the bulkiness of the stand.

If there's any uk festool employees reading this a package deal with all the extensions etc would be great. It might give us the illusion of getting a good deal.

I might hang off a while and wait till I have a project that requires it.

Enjoy the sunshine I'm off to manchester in the morning to the theatre of dreams.
 
Well so far I have gotten a Sys 1 from my wife and son and a gift card for woodcraft, some dominos in a gift exchange and the compact cleaning set. Plus I have some extra money from a Christmas bonus and some other Christmas money that will pretty much be spent on more "shop/Festool accessories"
So I must say I am very thankful for my family and the gifts. How did I get so lucky [big grin]
 
My in-laws got my the workshop cleaning set. Been wanting one and it's my first 36mm hose so can't wait to try with my kapex and see the difference from the 27mm hose.
 
Didn't receive one but was able to buy my dad an ETS-150.  He really was surprised and he loved it!
 
It was more of an early December gift I gave to myself  [wink] [wink].  I got an Ug stand with the wings.  It's really interesting how solid they are once they are securely attached.  Would love to have the Vecturo someday but I don't have use for it it... at the moment..
 
Merry Festool Christmas. CSX and Rotex 125 + systainers

I received a Sys-1 toolbox. I may buy the Vecturo set later in 2015, after they have been out a while.

An RO150 from a wonderful wife who seems to be enabling my addiction... [wink]
I will quote Kev here.  You must have a "Festool compatible wife"
 
My Christmas present purchases were the Vecturo set and some blades, the Toolie, Apron, CT Wings, some more systainers and mini systainers, and the Syslite Uni Torch.  I also ordered before Christmas but too late to receive before the holiday more Vecturo blades, the Syslite, and some Blaklader gear.  My wife bought the above for me for Christmas, she just doesn't know that yet, and may never will...... ;D

Edit..... Forgot to mention the Centrotec 98 piece Installers Set I purchased on sale this month.....
 
I kinda scored, got an MFT3 and parallel guide set.  Unfortunately, UPS did them no favors.  Gotta wait until my rep is back in action (on holiday, nbd there) and get replacements on... well, everything.  Shoot.

Got a Ti15 coming tomorrow though, to pair up with my c15.  Super excited about that!  Was a xmas present to myself.  Still counts!
 
TS 55 REQ which was the one thing I wanted for Christmas. I think I have a Festool compatible girlfriend. I also got the compact cleaning set and enough money to either get an RO 125 or get myself the Bosch Colt kit with plunge kit. Oh and a crap ton of assorted Bessy clamps. All thanks to my awesome family and girlfriend.

Nothing, i never get anything.

Me too  :'(. Even a lump of coal would have been nice......  I've got to live vicariously through all of you who received the cool Festools!
 
My beautiful wife (Santa) got me a RO150! Going to try it out this morning! Also got $100 worth of Woodworkers Source gift cards (probably gonna buy some sanding disks). Merry Christmas.

I got a shirt, box of candy, and a belt.  Nothing green at all!  No tools at all!  [crying]
