And hope they have it in stock :cry:

I have the twin motor CamVac. I was picking up shavings off the floor with both motors running, the end of the hose sucked it self to the floor then the CamVac shot across the workshop like lighting. So yes 2 motors are powerful.

Welcome Self taught. I have just joined the Festool owners group forum and they are just as helpfull on that site as this one. It seems we have 2 things in common " wood and filler ! " I have been a bench joiner for over 30 years and still learning. Okay I have to go and sort out the over hand...

I've got a large space between my ears !

I have just planed up a piece of sw into 4 lengths of 2000x44x28. Ripped them out on the bandsaw then onto the overhand planer finally through the thicknesser. It filled up to 3/4 full, just emptied it into a bin bag. Yes a chip extractor is best for planers but it's all about compromise, only...

I was wondering how many BS350 owners have got rid of the plastic thingy that covers the lower guides. Mick

I just got the CamVac GV336 4" with twin motors. I like it because you can just use a single motor or 2 for those bigger jobs.

Being pottering around the workshop this weekend A couple of jigs for the table saw and bandsaw. Extraction for MFT to catch the dust at the end of the track. Nothing really exciting but boy did I have fun.

Hi Marcos I saw the cordless TS55 this week at the Festool road show looks very neat. They said a battery charge should do 70m of cutting

I think I have made a mistake. I bought a Festool CTL Midi extractor today, just the right size for my workshop. It wasn't till that I got it home I found o ut it is not suitable for mdf dust. I see that you can get Hepa filters for the bigger category of L class machines. does anyone know of...

We'll I got my Record BS350S bandsaw today. Blimey it's heavy. Had to get it out of my car by myself ! Picture it, pulled it part way out on to a trestle then put a second trestle under it to lift it off the car then pulled the car forward clear of it. Next remove one trestle and drop one end on...

I hope to pick up my Record 350S on Friday.

Probably 6 tpi (teeth per inch) Paul. Hope you had a better journey home. Mick

Hi Paul Have you got up and running yet. Mick

I have just bought a Google Chromecast to watch YouTube on my tv. All you need is a HDMI input on the TV and a Android or IOS phone or tablet and away you go. Worth the £30 spent plus they give you £5 credit to watch a film from the android Playstore. We watched The Railway man last night with...

I have been using my MFT/3 for a while now along with my TS55. I am very pleased with them, in fact I find them so versatile that I use them more than my TS200. I have added a couple of pictures showing the versatility of the combination. I am making a bed headboard incorporating 9 mm t&g boards...

That is the oak reacting with the metal of your plane. This usually happens if the oak is damp or water comes in contact between the oak and your plane.

If planing by hand try using a block plane with the throat closed up more than usual and go across the grain where the grain keeps changing.

I sometimes think it looks better to leave the knots a lone if not to big on oak. After all it is the character of the timber. I know that it is not always possible, but sometimes the filler looks worse than the knot. I bet I get some stick for this.

I have the TS 200 and I have found this to be a good little saw after some fettling. The only problem I have had with it is the table slots are not a standard size so I had to use the supplied mitre fence (which I found to be useless) I bought the sliding table which I think transforms the saw.
