The Festo spring special package will be over in a few days and I am trying to give myself more cool-off time before taking the plunge, no pun intended.
Festo is mum about whether a similar deal will be offered again.
This is not an advertisement for Festo, by the way.
What to do…what to do…

Darn.....they just posted a summer special that leaves out the Rotex sander.
Why couldn't thay have taken out the other one ?
Ordered the Spring Special today....
Also got the hole drilling set and guide for 32mm capability.
The Rotex sander is going to get immediate use, connected to the vac.
Festo told me a HEPA filter is being considered.
Currently, the smallest it will capture is 3 microns, which surprised me. Dustless sanding isn't quite so, but that's ok for the time being.
After contemplating many options and perusing the Taunton and other tool forums, this is it for me for the time being.
Can't handle a cabinet saw, shaper, etc. in my current situation and the mobility will be appreciated.
I'm blabbering here on my own but I know some folks would appreciate this from the many positive posts I've read concerning Festo.
