It’s amazing something like this hasn’t been marketed before. Like you mentioned its so simple. It’s invaluable for a guy that works alone though you always need a 3rd or 4th hand.
That’s a pretty cool idea and I bet most could make a home version for their own Ridgid or Shopvac too. I also wanted to say that dude has got some serious talent using that Trion raps a coping saw like that with the aftermarket base. I can only hope to get that good.
I like that vac accessory.
Wonder if this would work with the dewalt dust extractor. Sorry this is what I started with .

If not you could come up with something to make it work.
I used this to hang some crown molding yesterday and it worked great. It was a small room 12′ x 16′ just me and the wing.

Nice…..i want one!
I was watching some new This Old House and Ask This Old House episodes are did they separate from Stanley black and decker recently? They were a sponsor for years I don’t see as much stuff compared to festool
It’s such a simple idea.
Really nice accessory. This would really come in handy when you are working solo.
They are available here now! Check Bob Marino Festool or Tool Nut 🙂
I picked it up from the tool nut $45. Well worth it, I was able to work solo and not pay a helper for the day. It paid for itself the first time out of the box.
I see this in my future.

It’s great when you can see a tool actually pay for itself so obviously.
I have a guy that works for me full time but I’m definitely gonna grab one of these. if I can turn two man jobs into one man jobs then that let’s us accomplish more work in the same time and that is a very good thing!!
Very sweet. I’m curious about the DeWalt compatibility. DeWalt has that locking disconnect that is heavier and needing a tapered adapter to fit this will just add more weight.
That’s a real cool idea
