Tom Cancelleri Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Not gonna lie, I was a bit scared at the hole in the side of the box. Looks like I need to build a miter saw station asap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cancelleri Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I'm drawing mine out right now. It's gonna be simple. Euro style cabinet with casters on the bottom. Going to need a lot of plywood for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodger. Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I have it on my ryobi stand for now, I will use it to help build the project. Its a tight spot (hence the need for a kapex). Thanks for the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would use birch hardwood ply. Festool does have their own blades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgreenb Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Can't wait to hear your impressions Tom. I'm curious - what was the hole in the side of the box? Also, was it really on backorder for that long? Just from your supplier or from everyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cancelleri Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Can't wait to hear your impressions Tom. I'm curious - what was the hole in the side of the box? Also, was it really on backorder for that long? Just from your supplier or from everyone? I ordered it from Highland Woodworking. They were awaiting a delivery from Festool. FT was completely sold out on them. The hole in the side of the box was just that. A hole, no damage from it though, more than likely the cardboard ripped in the UPS truck. So far it's great, made some test cuts on some pieces. I can't really put it through the wringer until I have a proper miter station for it built. Right now it's sitting on my tool bench where my old miter saw was, and that's not really big enough to properly use it. I will say that the ability to do half laps and not cut through the entire piece is really nice. Now all I need is a fret slotting blade and to get the hole resized to 30mm to do multiscale fret boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
