Re: Now This Looks Good
Yea, my father was looking into the festool one, but Ill let him know about this if its cheaper
Also, once dewalt comes out with it, YOU KNOW everyone else will come out with a version, so I will probably wait a year or so and wait for a good selection, and the price to drop

Re: Now This Looks Good
DeWalt is 499.00 for the saw, 999.00 for cordless version. Festool TS-55 475.00 TS-75 575.00. There is a good review some where out there vs. TS-55.

My guess is 399.99 street price. They also make it in a cordless version. |

Re: Now This Looks Good
That plus tax. Makita is making one too, along with mafell and metabo. I think they are all going to be a little more than the Festool, and lacking in the system that Festool lives by. They show something kinda scary with the Dewalt cutting a door off while still on the hinges.

Re: Now This Looks Good
The array of gadgets for the Festool puts it leaps and bounds before the others, with mafell a close second. The new Mafell vacs are made by the same company that makes Bosch's. The old model of the Duo-Dowel machine is 50% off on Mafell's US site.
