I would not call it insanely expensive, if you compare a Bosch Glide miter saw with the kapex, yes there is a difference, but it's not insane. The same goes for other festool tools like their sanders, compare them to Rupes, Flex or any other high quality brand and the differences are marginal.
- mauvehaus 6y agoFun, unrelated fact: The Bosch Axial Glide saws use a Sarrus linkage[0], which is the oldest perfect straight line linkage. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarrus_linkage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarrus_linkage
- mturmon 6y agoThe Festool dust extractors are similar to what you describe. I got one for list price, a bit over $700. It's quiet, has an accessory outlet that can turn the vac on, has an option for a remote, has big wheels so it doesn't get hung up when you pull it around. Etc. The Festool is noticeably more than even the very good competitors - I think the Bosch is about $150 less, and there are others that are a bit more than the Festool. But it's not like there's a $200 shop vac that's almost as good. There are such shop vacs -- but they're a different product entirely.
