I bought a sheet of oak veneered board from them last week and they charged £10+ vat to cut it into 7 pieces - that was the only way I could get it into a Smart ForTwo car!

Who import Indian Equipment and then charge a much higher price than you can get them for on Ebay!

My wife - who is a customs officer - found that statement quite amusing. Shipments are often labelled as "gifts", or have extremely low values listed on the shipping labels and due to the huge number of parcels many get through. But people who broadcast their intention of evading the tax payable...

Are you sure it can be fitted into a CMS as I don't think it has the necessary groove in the side rail for the slide action?

The "L" is usually the 110v version

Does it come with the systainer?

I have a Festool Midi and CT22. Other than the ability to clip systainers to them I would not rate them higher than a Nilfisk I recently tried.

Festool supply "Sipo" dominos which are for exterior applications.

What's the price for the 2700mm guide rail?

No! most certainly not and I'm sorry if it came across that way.

I agree that most of the Festool range is extremely good. I have several including drills, saws, routers domino etc. which is why I encouraged my brother-in-law to look at the range when he was looking for an M Class vacuum. I do find it amusing how many people have such deep down brand loyalty...

I've found the finish nailers to be quite temperamental unless stripped and cleaned on a regular basis.

My local dealer said that he could not offer discounts and would have to refer directly to Festool to see f they would offer some incentive - a free guide rail, systainer or whatever. This was on an order for £6000+ worth of tools.

My brother-in-law just purchased a Festool SRH 45E vacuum cleaner. Cost was £892.00 + VAT. It bears a remarkable resemblance to the Alto Attix range that was being discussed on here a while back. In fact the only difference is that the Alto is £625.00! A call to Alto revealed that the reason for...

in Germany it is approx £850+tax for the compressor and one clamp. So we can expect it to be a little higher here :-(
