That's what I wanted to know. To my chagrin, much of my woodworking is
done in the middle of my apartment living room. Noise and dust are my
two biggest considerations and it sounds like a Festool vacuum is in
my future.

If those vacuums have a consciousness, I wonder how embarrassed they
be to find themselves doing regular home vacuuming tasks?

Not to worry. My wife will appropriate my shop vac for certain cleaning
jobs. But makes me clean them first as to not track any dust into the
house.

Those too.

That's what my wife thinks too, she wants flat doors.

We HAVE flat doors. Who has time to clean the 5-piece ones?

Use a Binford 6000 leaf blower.

Well actually there is a hose and wand kit for the CT22.

Now I am starting to wonder about my 25 piece doors that I finished building

Easier to redirect this message to you Leon. I was wondering about
your CT22 vacuum. Do you use it for other cleanups or just with your
Festools? I've thought seriously about making a Domino purchase and
I'd be a little closer to that step if I rationalized that I'd be
using the vacuum for other uses besides just as a Festool woodworking
addition.

Thanks

I'm not Leon but as I don't have a DC system I may be able to give a
better reply ;-)

I got my CT22 to go with my TS55 and starting on the slippery slope it
was followed by a Domino then other green and black friends.

The CT22 does all the clean up. when using it with my festools there is
usually little need for cleenup but I also have a Planer Thicknesser,
pillar drill, and Kreig pocket hole jig. With the Kreig because I attach
the CT22 there is now NO cleenup needed. The PT and Pillar drill however
throw out too much too fast for the CT22 to get it at source so the CT22
comes after.

If you will be using it on carpet do get the "Cleaning set for tradesmen
D 36 HW-RS-Plus - 454766" it has an air powered brush and 36mm hose
included. You will not be sorry to have added the larger hose.

If you will only ever use it on smooth floors, as I do the, the cheaper
Compact Cleaning Set - 456736 may be enough, it is for me, but I also
sprang for a 36mm hose anyway.

From what you say I don't think that you will be using things that throw
out a lot of chips but if you do then you may want to think later about
adding a mini cyclone to the mix. The CT22 has easily enough power to
cope with one.

I have one and I fill the bucket in about a week but so far have not
needed to use a second CT22 bag

P3272106.html

When I get to build my real workshop I will get DC but for now the CT22
is it and for all the black and green except the OF1400 it gets over 90%
for most it is over 99% It was my best decision after deciding to start
on the slippery green and black Festool path.
