Hey guys, still for sale! If interested shoot me a pm

Wow, awesome stuff! Where'd you get the tools at?

Dude!!!!! That's sacreligious!!!!

The link was grayed out anyways so we couldn't see it. Maybe they knocked it down?

https://www.amazon.com/Workbenches-Design-Construction-Popular-Woodworking/dp/1558708405 Its a great book be has a couple of really solid designs. The problem I have is do I build it now or wait to see if we build a garage. There is no way I can move the bench if I build it in my basement shop. If I build it now, it will spend its life downstairs if we decide it's not reasonable to build the garage.

I've been plotting and planning for months now and have gone so far as to purchase Chris Schwartz' Workbench book. I'm not done reading but have been pretty inspired by the Nicholson and a modifed roubo with a crotch. Not sure what I'll use but I'm thinking about actually doing pine for the structure and something hard for the top and vises.

No doubt dude, I wish I knew back then when I bought it! Next time I'm emailing you before I buy in Canada!!!! This is an awesome deal though and that drill is a really nice unit too.

Only gripe is the import fees. I bought my Makita jig from KMS and got HOSED with the import plus the shipping cost. That's a sick deal and great find Comp!

Hahahahaha This is potentially sold so if anyone else wants it, they'll get second dibs if the first one decides to not take it. Thanks guys!

Thanks guys Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Not very original....YET! But it works slick as snot. This is the MFT with the Fastcap wings. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Basically a new drill kit, includes 2 3.0li batteries, a centrotec chuck as well as a Jacobs chuck. Does not include the right angle or eccentric chuck. Will include the Systainer and charger. Ryan sent me another 15v battery from LC Tool but I'm keeping that one, the 15v batteries power my 18v tools and don't want to sell a gift! If interested shoot me a pm but be mindful I'll only ship in the USA. Sorry guys up north I've had shipping issues in Canada in the past and don't want to go through that abortion again! Payment is by PayPal friends and family only, I don't want to pay any fees! I'm selling this because I like the T handle drills better. I cannot get used to using my middle finger to feather the trigger. $285 shipped.

That's what impressive about my X2, it's spins slow but the torque keeps it going through super dense wood.

No I don't Rich. They've bashed our forum in the past which I addressed, some of the members are just dicks. I use the FOG as a research tool if I have a technical question. There is a lot of useful information in the search key. I've been a member for three years and don't interact with any of the members there. If I have a question I don't post it on the FOG, I just use the search bar.

Thems the ones I gots!!

Go to Festool owners group. A bunch of those guys have Lamello. Pretty neat biscuit jointer but my Domino is where it's at.

I wished they introduced the X2 brushless chainsaw when I bought my brushes version but I have to admit, I won't buy another cordless chainsaw anytime soon. My Makita was getting some heavy use yesterday and I felled maybe 12-15 saplings to small trees yesterday with NOOOOO problems. I live that chainsaw and taking it into the woods on the back of my ATV is a piece of cake. No fuel, no noise and plenty of power for the smaller trees. I specifically remember posting a video a few years ago taking down a burning bush that was about 9" in diameter of super wet, super dense, fibrous wood with no issues. I might consider getting a gas powered one next, I have about an acre of dense hardwoods that I have to partially clear starting the summer. Can't wait to see what they release next!

I found some cheap clear plastic clamshell cases at HD years ago and store all of my carriage bolts, nuts and washers in them. I think I paid maybe five bucks for them. They work great, the latches are plastic but hold the case closed tightly. I have a ton of systainers for my fasteners and shelf pins and hinges etc but my nuts bolts and washers are happy where they are.

I use my tools but take care of them. I don't abuse them and don't lend them out. I figure I drop several hundred on a tool, it's going to last a long time if I take care of it. I've lent tools out and gotten them back beat to crud so now? No lending. It's like my work car. A lot of the guys I work with beat the crap out of theirs, I figure my bosses let me have it so I take really good care of it. I use it hard but maintain and clean it all the time. I got issued a creeper at work 14 years ago for performing commercial safety inspections, I use it all the time and it's still in great shape, the head rest isn't cracked, the wheels work great, I just care for the stuff I use and own.

I got the Dewalt 20v brushless blower kit this morning at HD The kit came with another 5.0 battery so bam! Also, yes...my Flexvolt batteries fit in there just fine so I've got enough juice to run all day long with two 60v batteries and now four 5.0s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just to add my two cents... i have the Kapex. I've had it for about three years now. It is by far the best miter saw on the market, the dust collection is unparalleled. The trench function is amazing for repeatable dead on accurate cuts. Multiple speeds, super accurate tool with a phenomenal blade out of the box. The micro adjust for miter cuts is amazing, and when bevelling, the machine stays put because its counterbalanced in the head to prevent it from moving while you are adjusting it. The Kapex is not a 12" miter saw yet you can use the back of the blade to achieve super deep cuts. The Kapex is super light. I should add that my Kapex is used in my shop, on an MFT with a dedicated Midi and cyclone. It's got extension support wings and for all intent and purpose, mine is set up as a semi permanent miter saw. I would recommend the Dewalt. Dewalt makes one of the best miter saws on the market. Now truthfully, my opinion is that the Kapex is the best miter saw on the market but I wouldn't hesitate in purchasing the Dewalt for the abvious reason of complete portability and the 780 is a fantastic saw. I'm a woodworker at home, I have a full time job. If I was a carpenter, having the ability to use my miter as a stand alone without power, that reason on its own would make me go with the Dewalt. I would love to get my hands on the Flexvolt but truthfully, I got my Kapex at 40% off for a brand new machine during the Festool recon sale. If I had to do it over again and I did not have the 40% discount I enjoyed, I would have bought the Dewalt. Here the Dewalt as you describe it is $700-$750 USD while the Kapex is $1475 USD (at the time when I got mine it was a wee bit cheaper at about $500-550ish while the Dewalt and Milwaukee and Bosch were more expensive or the same). Peronally, I'm not bashing my Kapex, it's an awesome machine. Everything I've listed makes it amazing. The dust collection alone is a selling feature, but the Dewalt is what I would get if I were in your shoes. The Dewalt weighs 56lbs. while the Kapex weighs 47lbs. Sure, it's a little heavier but it has its own power source and the Dewalt is also a proven design for a work horse miter and with the right blade, finish cuts are a breeze. Now I noted the price discrepancy you listed is not nearly as big as it is here so that might sway my decision if I was a pro contractor, but whereas my saw stays put (for now, I may go pro when I retire in 15 months..we will see about that one!) the Dewalt would not have to stay put. I could bring it to a rough in without power and work for hours. That alone is amazing.
