I would like to buy a metric version of the OF1400. Does anyone still have in stock one metric router, or any suggestions on how to get one?
koenbro, I could not find in your profile where, geographically, you are located. I do not know if you may be interested in this option, but perhaps it will help. I have an OF1400 metric router which is technically brand new, and I also have an accessory for it which I no longer remember what it is (possibly a rail guide, need to check). I could consider selling both of them (there is no value for me in selling the router while keeping the accessory) if you would be open to a price close to the current pricing of these parts.
I bought the router about a year and a half ago from a local dealer (so it is under warranty), have a receipt, and most likely have it registered with Festool under my name (I can only check on this and find the actual purchase date when I get home after work). I bought it in preparation for the kitchen remodel project which I worked on last summer. At that time, I had the idea of making cabinets myself and had a tentative plan to buy a Festool router table as well, but ended up ordering semi-custom cabinets - which was the right decision, considering the amount of labor that kitchen remodel ended up requiring, with electrical, tile, plumbing, etc. I only plugged plugged the router in once after bringing it home to make sure it spins, but never used it for actual work nor did I even install a router bit in it.
Feel free to send me a PM if you are interested. It is not posted for sale anywhere, so there is no rush if you need to think about it. I am in Portland, OR.
