Good deal on 12 V drill at local megastore (USA)

Ahhhh well that all makes sense now. The inside of the outer body seldom gets contaminated with your hands touching it inside and probably why I never realized the problem, so to speak. I knew early on about the complaints. I thought only the outer housing was magnesium as the motor body appeared different in color and did not have the magnesium imprint in it.

That's kinda high for a 3/8" corded drill. If it had a 1/2" chuck, maybe.

Sure, I've experienced a few... Finding out (in this case) that the quality tool is worth the money Knowing that your Festool is better quality than most Taking advantage of the Festool support group Knowing that your Festool won't make a mess like other tools Sorry, don't own a Laguna yet, so I guess I lose

But, I guess at this point that most of us Festoolin people sound like Michael Joel with his unwavering religion. The only difference being that you can prove the viability of Festool with a purchase ~ not so easy with finding God, at least scientifically.

So it was YOUR fault. All that info on the Domino you gave me made me decide to buy. I think you send me the current purchase price of a Domino.

Ok then. You're a Stirring S*it Disturber.

Happy?

IIRC, you asked me about the Domino first and I recommended Leon as the pusher.

Yeah that sounds right I think Dave was all oiled up by the time he started quizzing me on the tool. LOL

You are the same guy that jumped into my last thread to give off-topic advice just to brag about your expensive tool. It's no big deal but it is weird IMO.

You might note that you crossposted, so welcome to the wRec on UseNet, where every message can be replied to without regard to the wishes of the original poster, and where it's even more weird to expect otherwise.

Count your blessings ... thus far there has been no mention of religion, politics or electricity on your precious topic ... but don't hold your breath.

Besides, around here it's all Butch's fault ...

Yeah, but I'm willing to bet that you two work together. You start the process with your construction images and Leon closes with his fine detail information. After all, you almost live across the street from each other. So, how much Festool commission do you really get?

I *knew* it. You two are working together. What's your commission? Huh? Huh? I otta sue you two.

I don't think you fit the category of "Ex-addict." You're still hooked. ;-)

You're probably right. Only problem is that there isn't anyone around for me to accost for more drug tool money. And, short or long term abstinence from feeding my addiction isn't going to diminish that addiction. There's no going cold turkey from a Festool addiction.

Well we do work together, we have built several kitchens. It would be nice to get a Festool commission. ;~)
