I went the route of a cheap craftsman that I sold after 2 weeks of use to a jet 10in proshop hybrid. Great saw for money. Now I am downsized to a small basement shop and going the route of festtool...

Should I buy more tools than now that the Hitachi green sort of matches the green of the Festool line

If it is the bench top version, pass on it. Mine had plastic bearing houses and gave way after a few years of light use. Cannot get parts for them. 6 in jointer is likely better quality

I agree on the cheap feit lights at costco, all my fluorescent fixtures from them died in 3 yrs and 1 yr for the dimmer switches.

Excellent pictures and beautiful ash. It looks really nice. I think if you have a long hand plane, it will help.

I agree, I saw at floor and decor for about 200 bucks, you have a flat laminated wood top typically used in kitchen counters.

As long as you can get part for it, or source them. $500 is fair
Offer $350

I got a cheap set of forstner bits, a tool nut gift card, a tool organizer backpack and I bought myself a discounted ridgid planer.

Thought I would start this off for all.
I broke down and bought a dewalt 735 thickness planer with extra knives and tables for $505 after asking for a discount at the orange big box store. My incra...

I would say with modern cars, and rust proofing, the corrosion risk is minimal. You would damage the paint from oxidation from sun more than anything else. I would look to a scientific study before I...

Buy new, but once and do not regret. Buy the big one and use only one for all projects.

I sold my big table saw and now have a retool track saw and a small Bosch table saw. I bought the dealt you mention, but took it back because none of the tables were as flat as my Bosch. I use an...

Hire movers such as piano movers.

I am in a similar situation in my basement. I sold my jet table saw and use a bosch portable saw and just purchased some festool products. I feel this along with a 17" band saw, router table, and...

Try posting to festoolownersgroup forum. Someone may know

I agree with the bosch recommendation. I really like mine and as a bonus, with a very minor grind on the base, it will fit on the Festool LR32 system! !!

Suggest pricing at 65% of new, I was shocked at how many calls I received on a jet hybrid I sold for a bit over 55% of new and mine was 7 yrs old. People want good deals. Just list and link the new...

How do you like them?

I walked into my local woodcraft and inquired about availability. To my surprise, they had 3 in stock and I got mine. Now I am going to pick out a track saw

P lus one on a locked shop. That is pretty disrespectful. AS for the tools, yes sell it all and go with festool. THIS what I am thinking of doing.

Looks really nice, please add more lighting:)

That is an interesting idea. But most treads I see are about 12x36". Do you have access to bigger ones?
I also saw a youtube video of one make etirely of laminated 3/4" plywood for all of it. Neat...

Hi guys,
I have a ridgid vac on my dust deputy and as others have said, a muffler works great. I noticed quite a reduction in noise when I put the hose on the exhaust port and it may be another way...

I would go with dust deputy (complete kit) and your HD big orange vacuum. Obviously cheaper and a bit noisier, but you can use the savings to spend on other tools.

Hi all,
I am selling my house and need to fix this interior door from some prior pet damage.
I thought I might use either prefab stile at big box store or use router to make it. Please advise if...
