But with three Festool sanders already, I will have pass ... for the

LMAO... PATE, eh? How does the PATE rating of the XL compare to the

With a Multi-Router in the shop I may never know (or should that be "may

When working in the closet I'm in now I do like the idea of bringing the
tool to the material, instead of vice versa.

borrow during the street swap

I don't know, gotta keep my options open.

As a buyer, every horse I ever negotiated a sale on was a worn out,
spavined, cribbing, wind broke, sway back, lame old nag; later, when
selling that same animal, it was the absolute picture of sound equine
perfection.

Gotta keep your perspective too.

I sold most of my Festoool sanders when I sold the company. I kept one
Rotex, but it is/was in need of a complete overhaul. Quoted overhaul
around $ 150.00, which would have returned to basically new status.
So I looked at a $ 150 discount on the Ceros if I opted not to fix the
Festool (Yes, tool-junkie math)
Neither you nor Leon will ever wear your Rotex sanders out like mine
did in a countertop shop, so to think upgrade to Ceros wouldn't be
rational.

Whatever you do, don't ever handle a Ceros (like at a trade show or
somesuch), because 'rational' may become hard to come by...LOL
That remote DC power-supply technology is not going to go unnoticed by
the Festool gang either, so expect an answer from them soon.

Interesting point, the Ceros dust port, is 100% compatible with 1.1/4
Festool. I do not know if the powersupply will trigger the autostart
on the CT's

I use my CT22 with my Micro-Mark mini tablesaw, so no reason why a
Ceros shouldn't work with it. Just as long as the amperage
requirements and the mating plugs are compatible.

That's been discussed frequently on the FOG. The general consensus is
that the XL will not replace the original version because of the great
size differences in the dominos biscuits themselves.



Shhh ... don't let Leon hear that. I was trying to set up a deal on his

I have been watching a few European videos about the XL and it would
appear to me that one wouldn't want to get rid of the 'old' Domino.
That XL would work well in boat building, outdoor furniture and other
big projects. If I had to pick just one, it would still be the old style
Domino.
In my way of thinking, the XL would be hard to justify. (Unless I had a
ton of work for it, of course.)

I think I would use it for fence building, maybe timber frame
construction. ;~)

And, if you're looking for easy, you might try one of these. I bought
one and it works a treat, even with larger mitered edges. You just
insert several of the V-nails.

Just some options:

Biscuits are the fastest, simplest, and cheapest (providing you already
own a plate joiner). This large frame was done with biscuits:

As was this:

https://picasaweb.google.com/1113554...60428478601266


Splines are also very easy to do on a table saw with a simple jig and do
a fairly effective job of strengthening an inherently weak joint.

http://e-woodshop.net/images/SplineJig.jpg

And here is a result of a one type of spline in these trivet miter joints:

http://e-woodshop.net/images/Trivets6.jpg

A Domino works well also, and is arguably stronger that the above methods.

Half lapped miter joints gives you much more glue surface area, but are
pretty tricky to do without a lot of trial and error if you haven't done
it before. Here is our very own wRec'er, Brian Grella, of Garage
Woodworks with a video on how to do it:

I can't answer that since I've only used it on pine. However, the LV
website says they can be used on softwood and *most* hardwoods. I

I won't be lending this one out:
http://www.woodessence.com/Mirka-CER...r-P186C59.aspx


Interesting. When I first saw the picture I thought it operated similar to a
Dremel or a Foredom with a cable and remote motor. The Mirka has mass and
ergonomics that are similar to the pneumatic Dynabrade sanders, and I can
attest to that being a very good thing:

http://www.abrasivesupply.com/Dynabr...ers_ s/61.htm

I really like the Dynabrades, but I'd be interested to see how the Mirka
compares. One thing I don't like about the Mirka is that you only have a
single (3/16") orbital pattern to choose from; Dynabrade offers 3/32", 3/16",
and 3/8" models. I use 3/32" Dynabrades extensively when making my rocking
chairs, and I do NOT like the models with the 3/16" orbital pattern; they can
"bang" up against perpendicular surfaces rather violently. Nor does Mirka
make a 3-1/2" model, which is a heavenly little machine to use. I'd imagine
that the Mirka would be cheaper to operate, because the Dynabrades gobble up
quite a bit of air and require a pretty hefty (and noisy!) air compressor.

I have always used "zip" cord (never heard that term before) 'cause it's the
cheapest conductor for the buck. The impedance is known and constant unlike
single conductors that vary with their placement and cost monster dollars.
Mind you the gauge has to be heavy for low connection impedance.

When dealing with an 8 Ohm impedance speaker system (3.2 Ohms resistance) a
few milliohms is not a factor in the sound quality of the audio. This has
been proven in lab tests I have seen reports from over the last many
decades.

Next will be the gold plated 1m HDMI cables for $100...LOL The scam artists
always take advantage of the uneducated by mass hype and shills to convince
them of the importance of their engineering accidents. It's called good
"marketing".

Wrong, cupcake. An EMF from one conductor setting up an EMF in a
nearby conductor is through induction. (The word 'induce' mean

You don't read well. The issue isn't the technical specs


All your yammering will never cover up the reality that you were
actively arguing with the _actual wording_ of the Red Book audio CD spec's.

You stepped on your dick with that one, Dude. the Internet will remember
forever, so you might want to let it die.

Where "represent" == "perfectly reproduce"

I have yet to see the audio equitment either analog or digital that
pefectly reproduces any recorded sounds.


Because the components aren't perfect (or perfectible). The math is.


Nope. Not when you advocate, as you have, removing much of the material
needed for "math" to be used to effect a solution.


Good grief, you're the one who threw around Nyquist, without even
understanding what you were saying. ...and now you're complaining about me
bringing up math? Without understanding the transform from the time domain to
the frequency domain (Fourier), there isn't much point in discussing your
audiophoolery. You're not making *any* sense.

Cutesy little one liners, though ... even if more than a bit shallow.


Dumbass. How's that?

You obviously wouldn't understand Nyquist if I explained it to you, or you
wouldn't have posted a reference to a site that shows my point.

Let me say it once again:

"An audio CD can represent frequencies up to 22.05 kHz, the Nyquist
frequency of the 44.1 kHz sample rate."


At best, sure. ...as long as your "represent" means *perfectly* reproduce. So
far, so good.


Wrong again ... "represent" is not my term. It is in fact part of the
actual technical definition of the Red Book audio CD standard:


Ok, as long as the "Red Book" means *perfectly* reproducing... The fact
remains.

Making your total ignorance of the basics of the issue even more apparent.


You're a liar.

And so now you agree ... meaning you were wrong to begin with and have
publicly admitted it.


No, I'm saying that you can't read. I'm saying that the frequencies above the
"audio range" (20kHz is the nominal value usually taken) don't matter. There
is no "coloring" caused by what you can't hear. *THAT* is audiophoolery.
There is no issue with Nyquist (other than sampling above 40kHz is
unnecessary, if one could make a perfect filter - the reason for 44.1kHz (room
for a filter), and indeed the reason for "oversampling" (cheaper filters).

How much better than *perfect* does a waveform need to be for an audiophool?
IOW, you're arguing my point. Thanks.


It's you that's pwned, Dude.


Again, you can't read what's right in front of you.

You listen to a sultry flute solo from whatever sound source you
please. *I* will inject 120dB worth of 30KHz sinewave in to the signal
path. 120dB too much? How about 110 dB? Aiming to please here.
If you can't hear that, then you don't need to know anything about
psychoacoustics because you're deaf.
