Couldn't a woodworker make something just as good out of a 2x4 in 20 minutes?
Maybe it is a late April Fools Day prank?

The only hard bit is probably the brackets/hardware that attach the T-moldings to the legs.
But if they sold those separately, they wouldn't be able to charge $200 for them. :)

These kind of things seem to be Woodpecker's specialty lately...while the make sense, they also likely make incredible money for the company because folks will buy it. Everybody's "buy vs build" line is in a different place. ;)

It's Festool. What do you expect? Overpriced is the norm.

A meaningful searchable title.

And it doesn’t even include the shelf (or the table and legs for that matter). It’s JUST the support brackets. Now I have seen everything.
