Thanks for making this video, one question I had was what grit of sandpaper were you using? I would think that the grit is more important than the throw length.

TEXANS BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY!!! READ ALL! I had the opportunity to see the ins and out of this company and they are the epitome of “snakey salesman”. They are from California and they claim to have 5 star yelp reviews well they do have 5 star Yelp reviews but what they fail to tell you when they are showing you this on their little IPads is they cut off the bottom of the “5 star rating” to not show you that they only have 2 reviews. How’s does a 40 year company only have 2 reviews you ask? Oh thats because the original company in California does NOT have 5 Star and far from it. The company also carries a C rating with the BBB and is not accredited. This company is selling you a “MINERAL WATER” system. It simply changes tap water to mineral water and does nothing to prevent scale build up or hardness in water. They tell you that it makes “cleaning” easier but you will still have water spots and build up. The system that the y charge you $6000 for at the start is about $800 worth of materials and RnD apiece. They are trying to get you on a LIFETIME filters subscription that cost you about $500 a year. So the other $5000 you spend on “the system” is for advertising and commissions to some of the most scummy sales people they could find. They are going to lie to you through out the whole process… tell you R.O. Water is undrinkable (again to add another filter to the price) like distilled water which you CAN drink and while it doesnt have the “minerals” in it that tap water does you get almost all of your mineral intake from foods not the water you drink as the mineral in water is not in a very absorbable form. They also claim that R.O. water will dehydrate you like distilled water neither one of these dehydrate you. It was so crazy0 to me that literally everything they tell you can be easily disproven by a simple google search. If you really want to see the teeth come out early start mentioning Filter costs and filters before they are ready to talk about it and just keep focusing on it. As Texans we should be passing legislation against companies like this moving in and changing their “stats” to try and fit in with the culture we have built of honesty and straightforwardness. I would stay far far away from these types of companies that are just here to capitalize on the growth of our state and its people.

Hi, just wondering how you currently feel about this machine, and more importantly, how did you get it shipped from Taiwan direct? It’s sold at Home Depot USA but not in Canada where I reside…trying to figure how to get it…

it looks brand new, give us a review in a year or two

Nice review. How did your TDS dressing change?

Damn u weigh 145? What are u 4'11?

Save yourselves some potential headaches and just get an 800 series Bosch.

My Canlidi leaf blower was just 14 bugs without battery. My Makita 18V knock off batteries fits perfect. The machine without battery is just two pounds. The brushless motor performs extremely good. Its loud and theres just one speed, but nice to work with this lightweight little monster, fully satified.

Thank you for your insight. Same question I`m asking myself right now. I have been using a Dewalt Machine I bought 10 years ago where I can switch between 3 and 5 mm very easily. Its still running and whenever I`m sanding I use this great feature. First 5mm and then a finish with 3. Its a shame they didn`t keep on going with this sander. However, as you did, I will go with the 5mm Festool but keep my old dewalt D26410

Clever.

thank you. that's very helpful and informational.

Thanks for the thorough, pros and cons review! I agree. Pureagain rates a C from me as well!

I agree with you said except the in and out feed tables. I think they are absolutely necessary and can even prevent damage to longer pieces of wood. If you’re on the fence about buying the tables don’t think twice about it because within a day of operating it you’ll wish you already had them.

What model is this

Thanks. You are the only review that pointed out the belt change for low speeds, good to know. I work out of our garage where we park in the winter and this thing is pretty heavy. Maybe I’d be better off with a floor drill press, at least I could put wheels on it. Otherwise this one looks good.

After 40+ years the motor on my no-name drill press burned out. I could have replaced the motor but for about the same cost I could also buy a new lower end drill press. While doing my research I cam across this review of the Rikon. I wanted a bench top machine and I was having trouble finding one that would run at the lower RPM's. This looked like a good option. I considered the issues that were mentioned in this review and decided that most of them would not be a problem for me so I made the purchase. I just completed the set-up yesterday so I don't have any long term experience to report. However, since this review is 5 years old I thought perhaps some of the issues mentioned in the review might have been resolved and it appears they have. The parts were not covered in grease, there was almost nothing for me to clean up. The pully assembly did not vibrate, it was properly seated and works great. The laser is a bonus, I haven't had one before so the fact the the Forstner bit blocks the laser is not an issue for me. I have had 40 years of experience aligning the bit without the help of a laser. The depth gage hasn't changed in 5 years, it still doesn't have an arrow or a sophisticated marking system to give you an exact reading...but then my old machine didn't even have a depth gage. I would set the depth by adjusting the table. Yes, you do have to change a belt to get the full range of the RPM's. The lower speed setting covers 150-600 RPM's. Changing the belt will give you 500-2800. I guess this could be an issue but I'm a wood worker and probably can stay in one range most of the time. I did spend more than what it would have cost to just replace the old burned out motor, but I feel like I just got out of the buggy and into a roadster. I remember the days in high school when I would have been thrilled to get a B-, but for the money I think this machine is closer to an A.

I have the 3mm and the Rotex if I want something more aggressive for say hardwood lumber … I think you could have gone for this option

nvr knew. thank you

Hey brother I can't find an adapter for the skull

I had the Performax 22-44 in my shop for over 15 years and finally gave it away. Drum sanders take up so much space and in reality, aren't all that useful. Save $3K and build your projects better rather than look for a sander to eliminate imperfections.

Thank you for such an informative truthful video. Very very helpful. Blessings to you and may each day coming be a comfortable one for your wife, sincerely. ❤🙏

What a fantastic way to compare these tools. Instant like and subscribe!

Thankyou very much for your presentation abut chuck selection and how to apply for different size bowls

Appreciate the details you shared. Thank you! As far as the build up on your shower head, a neat idea I found from another Chanel is to fill a plastic bag with vinegar, place it around the shower head, secure it with a rubber band and leave it for a day. That does often work.

I should have waited to comment until I watch the entire video. They really sold you some incorrect information. A water softener would remove the scale issues. They're canister filters purchased for a fraction of what they charged. There is certainly the cost of installation involved

That's not how a water softener works. You lose a lot of credibility when you don't have the information correct

I have the ETS 150 / 5 mm it’s very good, I’ve had it for 18 years and it’s still working like new, I highly recommend Festool sander’s .

Great video and thank you for this honest well thought-out review. I just came across this system and I have to say it's a far cry off from what the advertised video said. They claim that servicing would be free if charge for as long as you have the system. After hearing this it makes me wonder what the catch is and the price of $300 or so a year for servicing is a LOT of money. I mean the system itself is extremely over priced why add insult to injury. The system for production and storage probably costs them about $50 to produce and store $25 a Year until it sells, which almost never happens, so this is wild.

Kobalt has a nice unit. lasted 6 years and I am now replacing the switch/pressure regulator for $10.

Awesome review!! Thank you!

The guard on that machine is not great but it’s a huge mistake to have a jointer in your shop with no blade guard. I’ve witnessed half a dozen partial hand amputations thanks to a guardless jointer. There is nothing to sew back on. Do yourself and anyone who might ever work in your shop a favor and replace that guard.

Your son is very lucky to have you. Thanks for giving your time, effort, and love to support his hobbies

This was super helpful. Thank you for your honest experienced review

Great video. Thank you for sharing. Look forward to your future videos.

Great organizing method and the written sheet reminder notes above sections is really smart. Thanks for showing.

Better than a shop tour. Good in depth review of ides and how you implemented them. Keep this series up with different items around the shop. Again kudos and thanks.

I would like to see more. Tell me about your plywood carry device

Great and enlightening review!

Honestly, I am just so annoyed at the municipal water supplies ruining our pipes. why can't they soften the water at the water treatment plant? it just makes no sense for people to have to clean their water at home.

Dónde consigo una refacion

Thank you. I guess that's why they don't even let you see prices on their website, they just want you to provide your phone number so they can constantly bug you to buy.

yes I like your DIY advice

I've had this machine for a few years now and have used it many times. The 12" jointer is the best function. The planer, at least for me, sucks. Boards get stuck part way through on half the boards. I've adjusted the roller tension many times, replaced the rubber roller twice and danced between either a lot of snipe with higher tension or virtually no snipe with boards getting stuck. I've kept the table clean and waxed. I just bought a 5HP 20" helical planer and that's what I'll use from now on but keep the JJP-12HH for the jointer function. I'd think twice before buying this if you're in the market. I'll only buy a one function machine going forward.

Thank you for the great video. Just a note, it's disk pad damaging to leave the edge of the sanding disk laying on a flat surface when not in use. At my sanding station I use hooks to hang my sanders from. Anyway nice shop!

Thank you for your review. It is very helpful..I just purchased a LG dishwasher..was disappointed with drying function..also I was not prepared enough for this purchase so I did not buy the steam function one…due to the huge dent inside the machine ( which I have not noticed at the time of the installation..presumed it is prefect) I was forced to replace it. Besides I had a horrible experience with the LG customer service… I need to buy another machine. This time I will choose smarter after watching your video. Thx👌

Great reference to Norm Abram.

Thank you

Do you say on the video “ typical maintenance like glass shower doors will still show of scale build up but it does take about twice as long between cleaning with Puragain system “ . Take longer time to clean the scale after the Puragain system?

Let me add that I got the newest milwaukee blower for 107 from home depot. They do deals like this all the time. Thank you for the test and review
