Well, this morning while checking CraigsList, I decided to type in "Festool" and see the same blank screen I've seen for a year... but NO! There it was, CT33E and Rotex sander, used 5 hours...
I had a firm date with my wife for a 11:00 infant swim lesson, so I jumped in the car while putting my shoes on and splashing a travel mug of coffee around, and drove 40 miles across Phoenix to see the goods and make it back in time to stay in SWMBO good graces... after all, she was helping push me down the slope! She was sneezing this morning with some dust allergies, first time in 4 years, and RIGHT THEN I found the perfect solution on CL! "HONEEEEY! This machine collects all dust and is the uber allergy remedy in the world! It's a vacuum baby! Yeah, for cleaning up the HOUSE (and shop) and stuff! Ok, I'm on the way, this will be a great Anniversary Present for you hey? Nothing's as important as your health, any sacrifice!"
I ended up getting an almost new CT33E Hepa, Rotex 150-ermm... sander, and two stacks of about 300 discs. Also two systainers.
$475
Woot! Glad I passed on that CTmini...
The hose isn't that cloth-looking one, it's a black and green plastic one...not sure if it's anti static, but I'd guess not. What do folks think about getting that other hose (if there is one).?
