What grit sandpaper please?

Why TF that shit 2x4 legs?

Nice!

Beautiful work. The only observation is to be careful with the miter saw. The piece between the blade and the stop-block has to be secured, whereas the off-cut can float. If the former gets pinched, it can create kickback.

What Garbage

Your afro is fantastic. Also, thanks for the great advice. My wife is an avid woodworker, and this is going to be an amazing anniversary gift!

What spray did you use? The audio was very clear.

Nice job! I think I'd start with Boeshield Rust Free to reduce the iron oxide (just because I keep it in my shop), then onto sanding and paste waxing, just like you did. Rust Free would work well in your miter slots, but would still require a bronze wire wheel (softer than iron, harder than rust).

Reminds me I should always get a cast-iron table saw.

Looks great Was there still rust in the one miter slot

Wow! What a transformation, well done

Great work! So satisfying!

What magnets did you use?

I have the Milwaukee ROS and decided to go with the 150 Festool sander for faster rough sanding. First thing I noticed is that the difference in vibration is minimal. After 15 to 20 minutes of sanding the switch failed and I had to finish the project with my Milwaukee sander. Festool is in for repair. Don’t think I will be buying many more expensive green and white tools.

Indiana $9.50 bf for Walnut and $5.50 bf for Maple. That's US

Hi Tom, Have you tried KJP Hardwoods in Ottawa for your lumber? Awesome selection!

I don't get the Festool is only worth it for "pros" argument, as a DIYer doing house renovations I wish I had invested in decent tools sooner. A TS 60 was my first upgrade into Festool, the time it saves in quicker, more accurate cuts and dust cleanup is worth it over the few hundred saved from the DeWalt saw I was using prior. I also have that same DeWalt sander, I dislike the vibrations and the dust collection is terrible (dust is a huge issue if you don't have a dedicated workshop and have to sand in your living space), the power button is mushy and often difficult to turn off once started. Wish I had just gone with a Festool from day one. Buy cheap, buy twice..

I found my 125/3 vibrates more then my RTS

Those cards aren't worthy of that box. You need special cards for a box that nice.

What brand of sanding disk do you use?

Loved the end result. Would like to know what products were used.

How did you get the lighter and darker look out of the same boards?

I just did the same thing 2 weeks ago only the crack was so deep, I cut it in half on the crack line. Glued it back together, sanded to 220. Good as new.

Dewalt 735 and I love it. I would have raised the grain after 180 grit. Then 220...but you know that.

I need to make a 18x24 end grain, min 2'' thick for a customer and checked the price pbf a couple hours ago. Rock Maple 8/4 is $6 US. And that's CA.

I new to this so me reading the prices my be off but went to homedepot for walnut. Is was expensive $9. Then went to hardwood store and paid $3 bf on walnut

Do you have a video for how you made the cross cut sled that you use?

Thanks Tom. I do woodworking as a hobby and use Festool’s tools. When it comes to the price you are right it is high. But I compare it to a couple of concert tickets since it is so enjoyable to work with Festool tools.

What polish compound are you using for the buff

Hi Tom, if I'm to tell you the truth I think that Epstein probably didn't end himself. Nice woodworking.

Would it have been easier to apply finish to the parts before assembly? Leaving the back unfinished for the glue up.

Hey beautiful woodworking, great for DIY too. Just one question though. Won't the hook hit the wall and leave marks over time?

Looks good!

Hope you flatten it properly. I'm sure that palm sander didn't do it.

Came out great Bro!

I am making a couple of boards next month. Thank you for inspiring me

hi everyone . i recomend flex ore 150-5, all same festool features and cost of 300€. i do have rectangular flex ose 2, which was half the festool price .im hobbys too.

Hey, I’m almost ready to pull the trigger on this saw . Just wondering what you think of it now ? I saw it in a store for 10 seconds , the fence and rail system seemed to be better then anything else I tried ( craftex, busybee, delta ) almost seemed as good as sawstop for smoothness. Does it have steel rails or aluminum ? Also, did you ever check the table for complete flatness ?

I just got this saw, and im having problems getting the blade aligned with the mitre slots. Ive loosened off the 4 bolts holding the top to the frame and I can get it to move around, but no matter what I do I cant get it any closer than 0.030 out of square from front to back. Anyone else have this problem?

The music …. I gave my seat to somebody else . Can’t take it . Good luck with your goal

Thanks for the overview. I have this on order, but as far as sanding pads go, you can use non Festool pads. I’m planning on using 3m Xtract pads with the protector pad. But any 150 mm or 6” mesh pad can be used.

I have this sander and love it. You nailed it saving time. I'd spend $1000 or more on a sander if it saves me a good amount of time sanding. Price is only a con for this sander until you actually use it. Then you feel like you ripped festool off. I have two festool sanders (this one and an RTS 400), a tracksaw and one of their dust extractors. Working within the festool ecosystem has saved me a ton of time and frustration in the shop. Everything works together well. Great review, thanks! Subscribed.

Great review, I’m trying to decide between this saw and a Laguna f2. I’ve heard bad things about Laguna customer service and not sure if I like the aluminum trunnion they use and the blade being so close to the front of the table (on the Laguna) Have you had any issues with the King? And any interaction with their customer service?

Minor correction...the saw is made in China, not Canada, by Harvey. They are badged as King, Grizzly, Bayleigh, and possibly others. Also sold under their own brand, one of which I am proud owner of for ~5 years.

Thanks Tom. Very helpful review. I use the same Dewalt sander you have & agree that the vibration is severe after more than 20 or 30 mins. I’ve used the 5” version of the Festool sander. It’s almost too good to be true how almost unnoticeable the vibration is by comparison.

I'd use a diamond honing plate to polish the top.

If you are going the pneumatic route, Dynabrade is what the professionals in this area use. If you have a large enough compressor, pneumatic is the way to go.

I have this same saw just thought I would throw it out there, if your having trouble keeping a dust hose on this saw is especially bad for falling of grab a tension clamp that's used on dryer lines, works great

You gotta find a hardwood distributor. They sell to dealers etc. they will let anyone set up account just tell them your a business. I set mine up so I just have a card on file with them instead of setting up credit with them: Instead of paying 8 bd ft for maple I pay 1.80. Not a typo cherry is the same. Even exotics are about 5 dollars cheaper. Walnut is about 15 though I find that cheaper creatively through private mills. Awesome board! Hope the information helps.
