ChrisG-Canada Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I'm looking for pretty much everything for a brand new wood working workshop (to be installed in my 2 ½ car garage). Looking for list includes: Festool CT26 or 36, TS 55 REQ, OF 1400 EQ, ETS 150/3 EQ, RO 90 DX, CMS-VL, MFT/3, guide rails, accessories, etc. and lots of other tools such as 13" planer, 6" jointer, up to 14" bandsaw, oscillating spindle sander, hand planers, Bessey and/or Jet parallel and F clamps, etc. I told you I meant everything! I'm also open to alternatives to these items so let me know if you have something. I'm pretty much only looking for good tools in great (gently used) shape and at good price. I live in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada so if you're within a couple of hours drive and have good tools for sale please contact me and we'll see if we can make a deal. I'm also willing to talk with people nearby in Michigan, USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beechwood Chip Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hmmm, according to the member map, there are no members in Ontario. There are a few in Winnipeg, though. And, not everyone puts their location on the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric. Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 You're gonna find it nearly impossible to get a "good price" on any of the Festools...they resell for almost full retail (which I still don't really understand, but I digress). Every once in a while you'll hear of someone catching a steal on one, but generally that's like winning the lottery. Might as well hold your nose and buy those new unless you wanna spend months and years scouring the earth for the bargains...which you'll most likely never find. Some good deals to be found on craigslist for the stationary tools. But buyer beware: they don't come with warranties and they can require a machinist's touch. Vet them thoroughly before you buy. Turn them on, cut some wood. Don't be shy about it. There's a member here that goes by the name franklin pug...he lives in Ontario and he might be able to give you some leads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, I was looking at West Ontario. I didn't realize that Ontario went all the way down to ... Lake Ontario. OK, now I feel stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdwerker Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Festool has a nice long warranty so take the lack of that into any used purchase . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
