I have the whole Festool range maybe 20k deep just now jigsaw i use the barrel grip makita 12v most of the time and makita 18v for heavy work , the 12v makita is amazing. Both of Festools jigsaws are terrible, the lack of visibility and angle base is shocking. Would love to see you try one to see what you think of it . Other than that i use mafell routers the lo55 its lightyears ahead . The lack of a cordless planer and the lack of a small cordless 165mm circular saw have always baffled me , again makita fills that void

Looks Great !!!! well done

Your hair is nuddles

Esse suporte para rolo jumbo mini seria indicado para ambos rolos jumbo mini de 114mm e 165mm ?

Festool DON’T make knives! The maker is on the blade, Festool just put their name on it and call it theirs

Thanks. - yeah not atall going to get any Impact driverof festool. (Butis there a centronic (whatever) impact driver of festool?

Great review, very nice tool................I want one 😊😊😊😊😊😊😇

The old one is perfect for stacking, the new one for sliding into a rack, for example in a van. Stacking the new ones is annoying. The new handle design makes it awkward, but there is no other way in making them suitable for a rack system like bott.

Nice! Will consider it.

I’m from the US and woodwork in metric. It’s a far superior system and I’ll never understand why the US refuses to adopt. I use the 32mm system to build cabinets. Also I love Festool but Fastcap make the best tape measure and they have a lot of variations of tapes.

Now you can slam in a 65 buck Festool Ruller in every sys3 handle.

As someone else mentioned, this is just a rebranded Wera Rapidaptor but that's not a complaint as the Rapidaptor is excellent. Also, if anybody else is a bit of a nerd for colour matching like I am, and own a Milwaukee, look for the Hilti bit set which comes with a red version. I'm just sad that nothing can be done about the back and forth play in the FDDX and it feels a bit ridiculous to be using one locking bit holder to hold another, only because the built in one on my Milwaukee is too deep to effectively use these smaller bits. Also like someone else mentioned, having this kind of holder built in would have been perfect. Even the bit holder on my Ryobi impact is much better than this one on the FDDX, with no back and forth play, plus it's ejection feature, making one handed changes easy. Okay, now I'm just ranting 🤣

It's not Festool and Germans going "their way" with the metric system. It's the Americans going bananas with imperial against the rest of the world :D

hy heeft wel gelijk maar ben tevreden met festool

I think Festool's position on this is affordability vs 'cost to make' vs functionality vs accuracy. For most Festool users who use this stuff on location is the stock hinge good enough, but many contractors I see don't bother with the hinge at all. That might be why revisions to this piece of kit haven't been made. Having said that, I seriously doubt that they would bother to develop their rail hinge to a standard that could better the quality of Dashboard, for example. Seems they're better off concentrating on the power tool division R&D.

Very helpful video 👍🏽

Is there any Amazon blades that fit it?

Great video. I’d never considered this.

Even better than the purdy is arroworthy rollers. The finish they leave is second to none.

I watch most of thoese channels myself............they are fab !!! like youre own channel !!!! thank you

Looks Good !!! Thanks for the review

Great review !!! thank you

The only way that shite wil last 5 years is if you don't use it. Wooster Sherlock. are the best money can buy . All their products piss over Purdy.

Starting using Purdy. Get there rollers .. arms etc … awesome products. My ceilings look amazing. The paint coverage is excellent. Nice review bro. 👍🏼

1.25 speed - thank me later

What brand blades do you buy for it?

Great video. Thanks man.

I commented in your other Carvex video you should have gotten the D handle version because of the speed trigger. Then you actually made the switch before I saw this video :D You can hold the D version like the barrel grip version when you cut from underneath, but you can also use the speed trigger on the handle when you cut from the top. It pretty much gives you both options how to hold and use it.

First off, the shape of the jigsaw is really old and is the most common form on the european continent that professionals use. It's because it's the best form to cut from underneath to avoid tearout on top. In your case it would have made sense to actually get the Carvex with the D grip as you can hold it like a barrel grip jigsaw, but also like a classic D version. It has a classic speed trigger with a lock mechanism in the D handle, plus the 2 on/off switches. I also found the switches on the side a bit awkward to use when turning the machine off and that it takes some time to get the blade guides adjusted properly. The Carvex for sure works best with the golden Festool blades. There is a reason why they put the name Carvex on those blades.

Great review !! thank you

Great video !!!! Im thinking of buying on offer here in Ireland !!

i love them, I had to go with this than the big rugged pack out and bigger Brute ones. Just want to customise them a bit

LOL, the music in the intro is so on point. Apparently I am not the only one feeling that Festool tools are sexy. Thank you for making me laugh out loud.

Amaricans are going there own way, not Festool^^

I am a festool fan but this is way too expensive for me as a carpenter/builder!!!

Dude you look gay as hell

Great video !!!! Great Job !!! well done

Not sure why there would be a need for those aluminium black arrows for setup. If you’re setting it up with the MFT holes, why not just use regular bench dogs?

Must say the batteries show no lack of performance after many years of use.👍🏝️🇨🇦

Excellent and very timely video! Previously I had a corded Bosch barrel-grip then moved to cordless DeWalt d-handle and didn't quite know which Festool to move to. I still don't know 100%, but this video gives me a lot of items I haven't considered and has been leaning towards d-handle.

Here's what's crazy. If the impact driver is only intended for standard bits, and they sell the bit holder separately to hold the standard bits, why isn't that green thing just built into the driver in the first place? Festool is the master at making you buy add-ons unnecessarily. Somebody needs to stop this consumer gouging. I appreciate that you show the mechanics of the holder, which makes a difference in determining its worth. I assume the centrotec shank version of this bit holder works exactly the same way?

it's boggles the mind how festool will sell all of its centrotec drills in America but not the needed accessory kits.

After using them for many years, Makita bags seem sturdy, but they are not very durable. There is a design error. When you hold the handle and move the Festool and Milwaukee, the zipper faced upward, but when you hold the handle on the Makita, the zipper points downward and rubs against the track. This causes the zipper to quickly break and cause damage to your track.

had all their jigsaws - don’t waste your money -junk and yes i did f around adjusting the janky blade guide. Don’t mess about get a mafell p1cc more money but quality tool.

Very surprised you've never seen a tape measure with only metric measurements. I've owned maybe 30 or more over the years and ALL have been metric only. The Imperial measuring system is enough to drive anyone batty! Thank goodness Australia went metric a long time ago.

I've got myself one of those knives. I regret it. It's crap. The locking mechanism is weak, the knife folds back under very little pressure and it can hurt you, it can cut your fingers. The blade lost its edge in couple of weeks, from peeling oranges (!). I do NOT recommend this knife. Buy some decent blade instead. Opinel knives I had were better.

Just ordered it. My old tape has inches as well, but it has always annoyed me.

Wait for the high price of this jigsaw accessories are not included? 😂

Bought it...

Really appreciate this video mate...you're right. Very little out there to help us Festoolers. I have big hands so it's a no brainer. Thanks again.
