Steel would have been my choice but as I’m not experienced at metalworking I opted to build a wooden mobile base for my jointer/planer combo that weighs approximately 680 lbs. The base was built from...
Here is a pic of "my" design.
Hope this helps,

As far as I know there's no English term for "Kabelaufwicklung" so lets try to find a translation step by step. "Kabel" actually does mean "cable" or "cord". "Aufwicklung" is the noun to "aufwickeln"...
Great job, David. I really enjoy your messages, thanks for sharing.
Christian
I can assure that it HAS the same meaning here (at least in Austria and Germany).
I agree, that the Domino isn’t cheap. But I do doubt that a company that concentrates on mass furniture would...
I use the CDD and would greatly appreciate a magnetic holder in the spindle. Honestly, I don't understand why Festool didn't equip the spindle with a magnet. As a consequence I'm thinking about...
Congrats, David!:)
Enjoy your new tools.
Christian
Honestly, it's pretty difficult to explain that.
As far as I can tell from the pics, your drill is equipped with an "old-fashioned" "two-handed" chuck (you need to hold the ring in order to "lock"...
I think this Panasonic on amazon has a better chuck than the one Stu got.

Only one? What's wrong here, Stu?!:rolleyes:
Congrats ...:)

Hi folks,
Niels is right. This depth stop (DD-DC) is an attachment that connects to any Festool Fast Fix drill.
The C 12 Duo is a package that includes: C12 cordless drill, depth stop DD-DC,...
Thanks again for your messages. Now I’m even more confused than I was before as a result of your inspiring ideas. But that’s fine. ;)
Carl, nice bench and one most impressive tool trough.
Danny,...
Can anyone comment on the quality of Bosch vs. Lenox?
Is the standard BI-metal type sufficient for average woodworking applications?
Thanks in advance,
Christian
Currently, I store scrap in 4 plastic buckets. Not to forget that several larger boards are lying on the workbench. I plan to build a mobile scrap box from OSB in order to get things more organized....
Jeff, I'd appreciate more pics of the vise. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for the clarification, Bruce. If I understood the construction of you bench correctly, the top is supported by the carcass apart...
Frank, doesn't Festool make a planer?:p ;)

Hello folks
thanks for your replies. It is a pleasure to see your workbenches. All of them are real beauties so please don’t feel offended if I don’t reply directly to every single post.

Which tool belongs to the Ryobi box?:rolleyes:

Hello folks,
my former main work bench (beginner’s grade Sjöbergs, nothing really great) has been abused as a storage place for wood for several months now. As a consequence I only used the front...
No matter which saw you're going to buy be sure to go to a store in order to find out which saw fits your hands best. The Bosch 1591EVSK offers several nice features but it just doesn't feel "right"...
I'd probably get one of the newer types - 6270 (12 V) or 6280 (14.4 V). The advantages of these drills are:
- better batteries (2 Ah instead of 1.3 AH)
- much more compact
- maybe a better charger...
Beautiful work, David. Thanks for sharing. The contrast between the cabinets made from maple and the black countertop looks fantastic.
I’d seriously think about putting together a complete...
Hi Frank,
congrats on the wood.
Is it already seasoned/dry?

Christian
PS: If the Audi Gods don't forgive you just go ahead and buy a different car. ;)
Hi John,
welcome to the Creek.
Please give us a few more details on your current and future shop.
Which tools do you own and would you like to keep? I’m not asking for a detailed inventory...
