Perfection. Very nice work and setup. What an amazing system for easy flow of work. I love how you keep all your work surfaces at the same height. CONGRATS on a well thought out system and approach to what works for you.

The scoring blade was too deep. It is wedge shaped

The Milwaukee M12 Multitool does come with an attachable depth stop

Thank you 🙏 This helps me a lot

You ever think about adding extrusion to the front and back of your big custom MFT table? So it’s kind of like the Festool MFT. Do you see any pros to that?

Thank you for posting this and lifting up the base so we can see the underside. That helped a lot!

It looks like the blocks are around 3/4", so why not just cut a piece of 3/4" plywood across the complete top and then lower the sides the little bit to match the bed of the miter saw?

This is not a comment about what you did because as you rightly say, it’s about learning and having fun and ultimately, who cares, but sometimes when I do this conversion stuff I wonder if I would have been better off just rebuilding the thing to fit the new thing given the time spent figuring/converting….but like you said…..!

I have the Festool Kapex ks 120 reb miter saw that needed repair just at 3 years, it cost me $120.00 for parts and labor, but took 2 months to complete. The issue was when you have tall stock, the rubber dust collector was sucked up into the blade... this was the first time this has ever happened to me, and it will be the last.

There is a guy here in Ireland who has a TH-cam channel named Deandorthy. who repairs tools for a living, and he is always warning viewers not to buy any Milwaukee tools; the only ones he slightly recommends are the 12v tools .I boughtlots of milwaukee stuff myself but have stopped buying them and like you, im a diy guy not in the trades

does this work with the dewalt corded Track saw? I assume it does because they have one track

Be careful. There are two right-angle adapters. The AN-XS fits the CSX12 and the C/TSX-1 drills only. The AN-UNI fits all of the current models. I didn't realize this, so I have to buy a AN-UNI, one of these days. The CSX-18 and CSX-12 have the same torque specs. The only difference (other than the obvious) is that the 12V battery will need charging more often. If I'd known that they were so close to each other, I probably wouldn't have bought the CSX-18. Other than the handles the CSX-8 and TSX-18 are exactly the same.

I was trying to get all Festool but Home Depot has a sale on Dewalt 60v miter and table saw. I added Fastcap support and miter stop on a Bosch zero gravity stand

Instead of lifting the bed; just remove all the bed bolts on the driver side. Loosen the bolts on the passenger; just loosen, don't remove. This with a floor jack and a 4x4 block of wood just tilt the drivers side of the bed high enough to remove the fuel pump. A lot less effort than removing the bed completely. Though, you did a fine video!!

Great video Will the Milwaukee and Festool chucks swap?

Hope you are doing well. I’ve noticed that you haven’t posted a new video in about a week hope that you and the family are well. I look forward to your videos because they are very refreshing to watch. What enjoy most is your honesty with no hidden agenda.

Drank the green kool aid 😂 So true! You definitely go down the rabbit hole!

I wish this set came with a longer hose.

New battery version launch in February it is now on festool uk site

I like that table extension on both sides

This video helped me decide, thank you

You need to sharpen that knife my friend 😄👍🏼

Nice tip to use the Makita, men, but 15 minutes to share it !!!!!!

Festool really seems to be lagging very far behind many of the major manufacturers also the stuff coming from China is catching up in a huge way at less than half the price.

Milwaukee also has plastic molded boxes for their tools... and they release some in a Packout version, but that was for a limited time. Maybe the reason is most people using their tools on a job site don't like the plastic boxes and prefer the bag.

How are you liking the ear buds?

I’m very surprised that the Festool splinter guard was such a big fail compared to the Makita and DeWalt. I wonder if the price comparison is wide as well.

Very nice review. Thanks for the video

Serious question...what do you actually build?

I feel that the version with the t bolt dogs would slide in and out easier if you put it over your workpiece instead of lifting it every time to slide it under

This dude got a wall full of festool and he showing Milwaukee

I just ordered one waiting on it to come in. I went this this over the HKC 55 just bc there were so many reviews saying the HKC55 is under powered. I would rather have a battery saw but I also wanted to be able to use the FSK rails so I settled for this corded model. It is my first festool I don't think my wallet is ready for what is about to come 😂

I was about to get the 700 but I can do 95% of projects with the 500.

A little off topic, but I was wondering if you purchased a special tool rider for your homeowner’s insurance. I ask this because I know my normal HI only covered $5K in tools and you are in for more than that I’m sure.

Can’t remember if you have or have said if you have a dedicated shed or have room on your property for one, like a Home Depot type prebuilt so you could store spare wood that way. I’ll bet if you did have the room you would have already thought of it seeing how your thoughts work. That cart will get super heavy and unwieldy but it’s not like you are going to be moving it far or that much so it’s definitely worth the efforts.

Good build video. During the first few cuts at the miter saw I noticed that you were trying to hold the wood on the right side of the saw blade with your left hand while using your right hand to guide the saw. That is a bit awkward, and places your left arm in the path of the saw blade if the saw jumps during the cut. Later in the video you switched to holding the wood to the right of the saw blade with your right hand and using your left hand to guide the saw - this is a much safer approach, but likely feels a bit odd if your right hand is your dominate hand. You found the safer approach, though I thought that I would point this out to viewers in case the switch over to the safer approach was not noticed. I use a radial arm saw more frequently than a miter saw (I own four radial arm saws, but only three are currently usable). With those types of saws, you must absolutely make certain that no portion of an arm ever crosses the cutting path of the saw blade. As such, when possible I try to have the cut off piece that needs to be held positioned to the left of the saw blade so that I am able to use my right arm to both pull and hold-back the saw as it cuts a board, and hold the trapped board with my left hand. Unfortunately, radial arm saws have much less usable table space to the left of the saw blade than to the right, so it is somewhat common to have to set up the stop block on the right side of the saw blade, thus requiring the left arm to both pull and hold-back the saw as it cuts a board while holding the board that is trapped between the saw blade and stop block with the right hand.

SHHHAAAWEEET! Didnt realize they were even out yet! I have a PS5 slim that I keep in my shop. The wife wouldn't let me keep it in the house! lol

A video a day is impressive. New here and I will be following your path forward. Cheers.

Enjoy your videos , keep on going

LOVE my Domino XL. I bought an adapter from Seneca Tools so I can do smaller work that the DF 500 can do. Enjoyed the video as usual. Thanks

cool connectors with the zeta but can make your own for domino joiner

I want that domino XL, but hard to justify for me. Thanks

Your First Viewer

8 minutes of yapping is crazy

Thanks for the video. I have 2x 1.5m long Dewalt rails and planning to cut one into 2 pieces - 90 & 60 cm. Because 1.5 m rail is pain in the but to use for short cuts in tight places. Then I was planning to get 1m rail and saw that Makita is cheaper. But its not going to work the simple way. So I'll stick with Dewalt rail for DeWalt plung saw.

Steam deck oled is the move ❤ sold my Xbox series x PS5 is collecting dust

Enjoying this even as my head spins over the Festool numbers you are throwing out! Particularly appreciate you highlighting the aspect many of us are in as beginners so to speak, mixing the need for construction vs fine woodworking mentality in our builds. I also appreciate you sharing your thoughts out loud, your visions and ‘half-baked’ ideas ( not a slam) …..the same as many of us. Listen, I respect you putting yourself out there. If I started a channel, my first act would be to unsubscribe from myself as sharping yourself like that is not easy. I’ve a question that is none of my business so ignore at will. When you have a channel, can you claim tool purchases as a write off? I am curious for sure but also trying to justify why you have so many more tools than me-lol! Thanks for these videos, sir.

Great content, thank You !!!!!

Here in the uk ordered and paid for mine a few weeks ago - the estimated delivery date is still a month away!!

The 8.0s are good. I leave them on the tablesaw.
