  4. Hahahaha that's my boy!!!!! Bringing bling to woodworking, that's our Comp!!!
  5. Thoughts and prayers to you and your fiancé man.
  6. Oh! And you posted in the right place.
  7. Welcome to the forum dude I did this video a while back as a request about the Festool system. Really the majority is about the CXS. If you buy the kit for the CXS or the TXS it's $285. I actually paid $180 for mine through the reconditioned sale a couple of years ago. I will tell you. The CXS is by far, the best cordless drill I've ever (including now) used along with my T18. The problem is very simple if you buy into this line. The batteries for the CXS / TXS only work within those two drills. The T and C series drills work within the whole line in that if you have a 12v or 15v tool it will power those plus the 18v but not the other way around. Currently in those lines they have the drills, Hammer drills, cordless track saws, cordless circular saws and jigsaws as well as a couple of lights and the radio. Quality on these tools are unsurpassed but they tools are limited by the range of tools available in the cordless arena. I'm going to limit my discussion of the other lines as you asked for Festool and Metabo (I don't have any personal experience with Metabo but I have heard numerous testimonials on their high quality) but if your going to buy into Festool you will end up with an incredible tool system with limited range and high cost. But what you get for the money is high end pro grade tools that will last a life time. And an empty wallet
  8. Yeah it ain't going in the back of my truck by myself
  9. Right? Come on home, things get a little warm, the blue pill commercial with the hot brunette pops on and......BAM!!!!!!! WOW Junior! All of that's for me?? I'd just hang my head and cry......
  10. It's over 3 bones Protoolnut
  11. I have got to remind my wife that Pandora is killing me!!!!!
  12. I'll be churning some sawdust tomorrow when I get off duty!
  13. Slick Comp. your going to have to put a diamond on your lovely brides ring though! Makes sense, hardest wood serviced by the hardest stone. Now that spells love bro!
  14. As a matter of fact Chad.....I do. She's awesome. And to my other news. Got my taxes done tonight but prior to I finished assembling and truing up my new Sawstop CNS175 with mobile base and DC attachment. The saw runs wonderfully and is quiet. Smooth too. I'll be trading out the stamped wings for cast iron but I was quite happy to hear her purr to life. The brake system started right up and went through its checks and whenever I brushed the blade the light turned red. Here she is.....
  15. That would be some really nice inlay that would go a LONG way!!
  16. I just feel bad for her husband.
  17. When they introduce the compact DC unit are you in Regopit?
  18. Nope, not even close! Festool equates to super high quality but my Bessey K Body and Jet Parallel clamps work just fine for me!!!! This, the Conturo, the Router station, the Planex.....all super high end, production grade tools that will never be in my shop. Watch out when they release the HKC55 here in the US. That is going to find its way in the shop!
  19. Ha. Just got the Toolnut ad. Yikes! Not for my shop!
  20. Fantastic job and a cute dog too! Looks pretty happy with your antique look!
