Yes, I do have the 3m guiderail from Makita. It was SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than the Festool one (less than 200 euros compared to 450 euros). I use it and it works, no problems. Apparently it even...

Buy the Makita 3m rail, it's much cheaper than the Festool rail. They are 99% compatible.

By the way, you can make Dominos yourself (it's just a 5, 6, 8 or 10 mm thick block of wood with rounded edges in 2 sides), you can even make it in different widths (for example one guy makes the...

Any evidence of this? Is this a categorical fault in these machines we should be aware of or just one monday case (that Festool did or did not take care via warranty?). They have a 3 year warranty...

Personal opinion - don't bother with the cheap tin-framed/tin-table table saws. Either get a really good circular saw + guides OR get a proper cast iron version. THe tin-versions will just make you...

Anyone who would have bought the Domino themselves would know how much it would have been used (and they would not be selling it a way, it's such an amazing piece of kit!)... Seems strange the...

What Mirka product did you use? They have a huge selection of different abrasives to all kinds of different purposes. However, I do think the company is based in Finland (or at least the factory is...

I found the nice planes now, 3-4 times the price of the cheaper ones, but quality was much much better. I got one really tiny one, one smaller (like Stanley 9 1/2) and one number 4 size.

Now...

I found now one tool shop in Lockhart place, they had 3 kinds of planes (at least), 1 Stanley block plane (something like 9 1/2) but that was really expensive (280 HK$). Then one smaller and larger...

At least in Finland the environmental folks have informed that Merbau is almost extinct. All of the Merbau now sold is apparently illegal. That might have something to do with it.

But, overall a...

Can you you above table height adjustement with this router by the way?

For the blades - yes, the stuff is quite commonplace and you can actually it in one meter length and cut it to match your planer. You can get HSS 18%, ST-1 and even HM - cost goes respectively up....

Interestingly enough the global economics have already pushed into the state, where we have the same equipment everywhere. The same ML932 is sold under the brand "IKH" here in Finland, too.
