So the other day, I was commenting on the topic
http://professional-power-tool-guide.com/power-tool-forum/index.php?/topic/5663-milter-saw-dust-collection-test/
The question was brought up about why the Festool KAPEX was brought into the loop. Well it’s part of a system and when in that system, in my opinion, there really is now comparison. I’m not a tradesman but I have used a variety of miter saws with and without extraction. I put together a quick video about my KAPEX and the use of two different hoses and no hose in conjunction with the Midi DC unit. First off, I’m new at videos, it shows. Hope you like it!
Great job once again my friend!! I’m so behind on any knowledge of dust extraction but U guys have been teaching me lots! That Kapex cuts smooooth bebe I’m jealous lol!
Nice job..The camera love you..!!
sexy sexy sexy!! ……….im talking about the saw just so were clear! haha.. nothing tops the kapex in terms of DC
the shop is looking great man, i wish you slowed it down a bit durring the pan around the room showing the ” mess” take it easy on yourself.. not only is it under construction but its a shop. they are very rarely clean lol
Ok Chris we are waiting for the ChrisK channel with its high end editing.
Chris you sound so much different then the voice in my head I imagine you having when I read your posts.
That saw is a Beast Chris,, and the shop looks great
ya its definitely a great and expensive saw. the DC is amazing, my opinion because of the dust chute being so close to the blade and its moving with the blade. and the size of the rubber flap
Good job Chris. The shop is coming along great, looking forward to see it when its done. I’m really kicking myself for not picking up a KAPEX when they had the recon sale. I thought about to long and when I called they were all sold but, this time around I’m going to jump on it as soon as I see it.
Loving that KAPEX! I was trimming out one of our bathrooms today with my Ryobi 18v miter saw, needless to say I hate you, just kidding man keep the vids rolling!
Thanks guys for the feedback. It’s too bad you couldn’t grab one Regopit. I’m sure you will at some point though. As fats as the blade KWC no doubt a good blade is important but zero deflection, no vibrations, smooth slide, finger controlled bevel dial, dust collection…;)
slammin job on the vid, grab a go pro camera when you get a chance and before long you will be doing Festool commercials
Thanks Comp!
