Very different Deep Purple but it’s great to hear from you Wayne!

[member=8712]Richard/RMW[/member] : That's a really great idea. Thanks for sharing that. I will definitely copy that!

Michael Kellough said:At the time (about 5 days ago) they had an offer to buy a mystery item valued at $99 for just $10. I went for it since BCT doesn’t make any junk. Anything they sell is worth way more than $10.
Package arrived today and in addition to the HP-8 I received the tenonmaker TM-1. Nice!

Good on you though, I'm sure the time saved will even out the cost.
I know it does for me.
Crazyraceguy said:[member=75933]luvmytoolz[/member] that would indeed be a nice addition, but I have yet to see one worth using, especially since it would probably require a new battery platform. I just can't see me doing that, at this point.
Many years ago, maybe 20, Porter-Cable had one. It was basically identical to the 690 shape/style.
However this was so long ago that it used 19.2v NiCad batteries [eek] which would be gutless in comparison to what is out there now. It didn't last long. I assume discontinued because of negative customer feed-back?
I love my little Makitas for laminate trimming, but I actually had occasion to use both of my OF1010 at the same time. That's pretty rare.
I have a feeling that Festool will come out with a cordless router this year.luvmytoolz said:Crazyraceguy said:[member=75933]luvmytoolz[/member] that would indeed be a nice addition, but I have yet to see one worth using, especially since it would probably require a new battery platform.

The Milwaukee has really great reviews, but if I had to buy into yet another battery system, I'd prefer if to be compatible with the SYS 50 which I intend to get at some point. Running time really wouldn't matter to me, it's more about being able to quickly bring the tool to do an adjustment or tiny bit of work.
Using the cordless trimmer I've surprisingly found saves me an amazing amount of time not having to setup the corded for every tiny job,but there's a lot of times I need "that particular" 1/2" cutter for a few seconds work.
The festool battery system is way better than I expected and has become my main battery setup. Really hopeful they release a router this year as that would be a really great addition.luvmytoolz said:Crazyraceguy said:[member=75933]luvmytoolz[/member] that would indeed be a nice addition, but I have yet to see one worth using, especially since it would probably require a new battery platform.
