Might try YouTube - likely users and company showing.


A Youtube video does nothing for me. I can't touch, feel, and *try*
the tool. I can with Festool. They even have workshops for some of
the tools. What about a Mafell is worth twice a Festool (particularly
when they don't have the infrastructure)?



LOL. Tell it! Although I have heard the same about Festool. What
about Festool makes it worth 3~4 times more then PC, Bosch, Milwaukee..
LOL.

IIRC Festool was pretty hard to find, in the USA, 15 or so years ago.
I recall Robatoy mentioning the Festool brand to me, he had a Rotex and
steered me towards a YouTube video of a new Festool available in Europe.
That was the Domino. And I had to wait a few years after that to get
one. ;~)
