I confirm what wizer said is true internationally. I know of this phenomenon in the UK, ireland and France. People queue up to buy loads of the same thing. Builders queue up for all the tools stuff. I bet you they sell them on again on the likes of Ebay.

The Screwfix one is exactly like the one I bought a while back in Lidl for 20 or 30 euros, I can't remember. But in anyway, far cheaper. I am happy with it, it seems a decent tool, I use it a lot now that I have it. CYC

Thanks Tony, I thought noone had noticed :wink:

If you are serious about woodworking and you want long lasting tools you don't have to replace every year, then I think most on this forum will agree with me in saying: "Spend more now on the right tool and spend less later replacing a cheap product" If you are on a budget like most of us then...

I have come up with a cheap alternative on my Drill press table: I used ply for the base and MDF for the top. I routed a dado in the ply and then grooves in the top MDF. All 18mm thick timber. It works very well for me. CYC

I am really keen on both Neil's and Adam's sections. Can I vote twice pleaaaaaase :wink:

Yes I agree Jake, I had the recommended mm raise at first but it's far too much. So now I am just a faction higher. Do you have a PKF255 ?

yes, now I say "sorry but I am using it" :twisted:

How comes you have to actually order the part of the fence which should have been included?! did you buy second hand? I use the EB SPA 1100, it was part of the deal with the table saw. Works well.

How did you get on??

Fantastic, I can't believe my eyes. It's just beautiful. Well done. I'd say it's hard to give it away (well you know what I mean by giving away :wink: )

Mcluma, here you can see all angles of the fence:

No matter what techniques Norm uses, he is still reponsible for a lot of us woodworking as a hobby :D Fairplay Philly 8)

I didn't think there was another version of the fence for the PKF255. Do you have a picture of it?

Congratulations Geppetto. My daughter was born 6 months ago and I have done next to no woodworking since. I use to get 6 hours/week in the workshop before that. When she is a little older I hope to go back :?

I too have the PKF 255 and the fence locks on the front and back of the table, just like John explained. You should have the same fence, or do you have an older model!? On a different note, before christmas I noticed the fence was no longer parallel to the blade. The blade is parallel to the...

:D VOTE NEIL TO WIN T5 COMPETITION :D :D VOTE NEIL TO WIN T5 COMPETITION :D Well done, I have seen this table in the flesh without the drawer and it's a real pro tool, I can tell you. I'd love one. I would say that a lift will be on the horizon soon making this table the ultimate routing...

One for all budgets and needs, Festool thinks of everything :wink: :wink: :wink: hahahaha

The CT11 is 14L capacity and would not be double the price from the Mini. I had the pleasure to see it in the flesh and it's very nice. "One day, she'll be mine, one day..." The accessory Neil is talking about is this: http://festool.co.uk/cat_mediando/image ... _z3f_1.jpg catalogue number...

I have one too and it's a fabulous tool, so many features. Just like Neil listed and more :wink: If you have the guide rails already then it's a must have. Ho and very confortable handling. CYC
