I took off work a couple hours early today to go get some laminate to be able to progress on my mobile SCMS cart this weekend. The local distributor is Waldens on Hwy 121 about 2 miles west of the Loop 820/121 intersection. They have tons of laminate. Not cheap, but they must have some sheets of all colors. But what caught my eyes when I walked in is they have Porter Cable products. Then I saw racks of Freud router bits and some blades. Then I saw a big rack of Amana router bits. (didn't notice any blades) THEN I NOTICED THEY CARRY FESTOOL!!! I had no idea they had these items. Also the soft/self closing drawer slides are in stock too. Man, I was giddy!! There was one guy assembling a Festool vac, don't know which model. He said Festool was selling very well for them. I asked about the Kapex, and he said they were being told late summer, and price around $1000 to $1200. When I asked about the Kapex, the laminate guy asked if I was talking about the, and here I lost him a little, saw or table saw. Is there a table saw coming? That would seem odd.
Keep this place in mind if you need something specific. Really nice people to work with also. Jim.
