I'm about to buy the MFT3 with a TS75 for my production work and have already fell in love with what I've heard. My nearest festool dealer is about 30 miles away and will be visiting soon to get a hands on feel of the systems before I buy. After working with Bosch and a few others, I'd rather go to a tool I can trust and that's festool. Well done on a decent video description. I'm listening to it to get some further ideas.

nice film I have one of those tables now for a couple of years, great thing, though it

wobbles about a bit I cant understand why they dont supply the optional under table cross braces when you buy the table. It works ok without them but if you need it to be rock steady.... anyway its such a useful table Im going to splash out on the braces! Im thinking of getting the CMS extension table so I can add a router/tss75 to the end of table do you know anything about that setup...

regards! london

I think you need to adjust yours - mines a rock

All the jigs fixtures and clamps look great, but every time you try and do some work the table rocks back and foward .... not very robust

very nice demonstration.

its just a shame that the audio is pretty poor :(

regardless,

its the information within the video that counts and it has convinced me that i need this table :)

thanks for uploading.
