So we've been slowly developing our aftermarket category.  Next step is growing the Woodpeckers line.  What catches your eye, aside from the 1 time tool sales.  What do you find yourself having to make an extra purchase somewhere else for?  I'd like to setup a scenario where we can be your one stop shop for all things Festool and their complimentary accessories.  

You know what, what other accy's would you like to see aside from Woodpeckers killer measuring tools?  Maybe add Micro Jig, but we've got that well organized on toolnut.com already.
 
You said "other than 1-time tool sales" but I've got mostly everything else I want.  How about some pressure for them to revive some of the 1-time tools?

I didn't start looking a Woodpeckers stuff until after all the 1-time stuff I wanted was no longer available.
 
I would love to see tool nut carry woodpeckers metric line. As far as I can tell you would be the only dealer other than woodpeckers with any if their metric stuff.

Ditto on that - only buying Metric these days. Started with the danged scale on my TS55, and then I finally accepted that 3/4" plywood did not exist. Next I had to come to grips with the whole Tooth Fairy/Easter Bunny thing...  [doh]

I still think/visualize/design in Imperial, then convert to metric and it is WAY easier to add/subtract for the actual work. I must be getting old.

Anything in particular?  FYI, added some of the requests here in this thread.
 
How about the regular old 12" square but in metric. You can save $10 all day on the imperial by buying from vendors other than woodpeckers but if you want metric you have to go strait to woodpeckers and pay full price.
 
DONE!

You guys will see some items on Festoolproucts.com and some will be on Toolnut.com

I agree.
 
Frank, I put the metric rules and T squares up here.

Let me know of any other particulars you guys fancy.
 
Sean, I will be ordering the rules shortly. Do you plan on adding the hook stop & rules stop to the offering?

RE: your earlier question, I thought WP offered the small precision triangles in metric, but it appears they do not. Those would be the other items I would like to see when/if they ever come available.

Thanks,

RMW
 
I know this is unlikely, but it would be really cool if you could acquire the very large triangles in bulk and stock/sell them year-round.  Or, just convince Woodpeckers to make it a regular item.
