SCSMITH42,
I love my Festools aswell, however if I had to do it all over again, I don't think that I would be selling all of my other tools and buying Festool. They are built well, and the system is nice, but I find it time consuming. I have the mft, ro125, ts55, ct22, of1400 router, trion jigsaw, angle guide, additional rails, and the domino with all the bells and whistles. They work great and are built like tanks, however It takes longer to get multiple repeatable cuts on the mft, than on my tablesaw, and it is a pain in the butt, to have to mark and measure each piece before using the saw with the guide rails and no mft. Several guys have made jigs for the mft, however I find my tablesaw better in most cases, however it is great for breaking down full sheets of ply for easier handling. The jigsaw is smooth as silk, with ok dust collection, however the dust shroud limits your cut visability. I acctually like my buddy's bosch more. The domino is great, however I have shop made jigs that performed just aswell for me before I got it, with only a bit more setup and time. Im not sure if the extra expense was worth it. I would not part with my router, my ro125, or my ct22 though! They work great together and independently. I say again, that I love the tools, however if I can give you any advise, it would be to evaluate the need and not just bite on the want, as I did.
Good Luck,
Dom
p.s. I will post pics of my tools over the weekend.
