EXACTLY.

In the 70s when they were big, my main squeeze was on the college swim
team. She had a body made for those dresses; long, lean, tan....

She had no idea that you wore underwear under those dresses. Talk
about convenient...

A magnetic braking system? 18 amps of genuine power? Quieter than
most. 3 bearing system.

Downside? You can buy 2 BigBadBoy 3.5 HP Milwaukees for the same
money.
Like their cordless drill, it is probably the best of that type of
tool on the market, but common sense takes over.

Now, the sander is different. Still costs more than any other sander,
but it also does mo'/better than any other sander, so the extra coin
is easily justified, IMHO. The drill and router? Not that easily
justified. Same with the Kapex and their Jigsaw. Nice tools, no doubt.
But exactly HOW much better than the Makita LS 10++ series can it be?
How much better than the big-boy Bosch jigsaw can theirs be? Of course
the Domino is in a class all by itself.
IOW.. just because it is a Festool, doesn't mean it is worth the extra
coin.

Okay... WhoTF am I kidding? I won't be happy till all my tools are
black and green.

I'm tickled thus far ... but I only have the two sanders, the CT22 dust
extractor, and the FS 75 saw, which is unbelievably handy in a small
cabinet making shop.

But the fact that there is almost NO dust from any of these tools ...
sheessh, worth the price of admission alone. Sanded a face frame through
three grits this afternoon and didn't get a speck of dust on my t-shirt.

I'm ruined forever and spoiled rotten ...

Well I liked it at first, I was using a sample pack. I am not so enchanted
now. Do you remember how the top rail on the footboard to the bed met up
with the post? It was slightly lower than the post. I use the Abranet to
even those up, licketysplit. Then just like that the Abrinet tore. It
works great on flat smooth surfaces. Stay away from "obstackles" amd dont
let the pad go more than a little over the edge of a flat surface.

That said I noticed a new vendor producing a carbide type sanding pad in all
grits IIRC. I think it is the vendor that is making the small gold colored
cut off wheel with a lot of holes in it...

I am certainly glad you are happy with your stuff. ;~) I'da had a hard
time living that one down, specially since the hook was set so deeply. ;~)
I had no idea that you were THAT interested in the Festool line. But as you
said there is no going back.

Goodness, noo.. Abranet is not good for contour sanding. But for
panels and tabletops it is, for me at least, the best I have ever
used.
I still do all contours by hand with pads and sponges.

That carbide stuff sounds intriguing. Keep me posted when you find out
more, please.

That's foolish since you know nothing about the matter.

Cut off the social mores and the more primitive part of one's brain takes

Mike - you quoted me as dumping that steaming pile of bull**** on the
group board. It wasn't me.

I don't mind you quoting someone else and attributing it to me if it
is something intelligent (good on ya if you do!), but would prefer not
to be included a group that thinks that men and women have not evolved
socially any farther than a common yard dog.

Statements like those are just so profoundly stupid in actual
application in modern society it is disgusting. Google University can
tell people what to say on any subject, but it sure can't make them
think. (see above)

So.... snip me out next time, eh?

Or else I will tell people you shoot car finishes from a rattle can.
That oughta put you on notice!! =^0

BTW, I agree with everything you said, especially call bull**** where
it was so deep you couldn't drive a truck out of it.

After leaving a disastrous relationship, I met my wife. We have been
married 25 years. There have been many women that I could have pursued,
but have never even given them a second thought. Just not worth it. When
you find a "gold nugget", you don't toss it away for a bigger one that
might just turn out to be "fools gold".

Actually, I never had a bad relationship with a woman. For the most
part, in their twenties and thirties women were still fun, and looking
to have fun. I was all for that. I had some relationships that
lasted, but most were fun acquaintances.

I didn't meet the woman I am with now and get serious until I was
about 34. Until that time, I spent my days learning, starting and
running two different businesses. I had the pleasure and luck to meet
all kinds of females on that track, but the businesses were more
interesting and certainly demanded more than the women I met. But
most of nights were either spent in the office or "out and about".

Interestingly, I frequently talk to guys that wonder what their lives
would have been like if they had money to do what they wanted, and had
stayed single through their teens, all of their twenties, and part of
their 30s free to go out or date as they pleased.. I'll just say,
I wouldn't do it any other way.

Besides, women don't really get interesting until they get in their
30s anyway.

Then I met the woman I am with now, and have been with for 20 years.
After plenty of experience, I knew what I had found and was willing to
be monogamous. After all, you only get out of a relationship what you
put in it, right? I certainly expected the same level of commitment
from her!

I have never regretted what I did as my old uncommitted self (even
though I was probably a lot more fun to be around in those days!),
nor my decision to commit.
