Well, that was a week; four months to the day since I ordered - and paid for in full - for my Festool CSC SYS 50, I cancelled my order with Warren at ToolFest. And then did what a normal person would do and bought one from Amazon - arrives Tuesday!
I’m still a little unclear where the saw is coming from, and wether this causes any issues with warranties I’ll find out when I register it with Festool; I have a 30-day no-quibble return window with Amazon though, which is twice as long as Festool gives you in the UK!
I have enough spare 18v batteries to get me started, but a pair with bluetooth would be handy to trigger the vac - don’t need the duo charger as I have two already.
Exciting times ahead; oh, and I’m moving house as well this week!
As I say in the vid I decided against starting in on the Triton doweller video - I already had the home office remodel shot, just needed to edit it and add in the voiceover; the cabinets are all done, and I should be able to get the shelves knocked out in the next couple of weeks or so as well.
Probably won’t have a midweek video done unless the saw arrives really early on Tuesday, as Wednesday is moving day, but I’ll catch you at the weekend with some news of something, I’m sure!
Thanks as always for your patience and support, enjoy the rest of the weekend and I’ll see you all again very soon.
Peter
p.s. there’s still a few Festool CSC SYS 50 available on Amazon, if anyone’s interested - https://amzn.to/3N1hASQ




AS to shorts Peter, Youtube shows a new video on a site and then I open on the maker and check the videos and there has been no change - I forget there are shorts as well!!. Personally I associate youtube with full videos and reels with shorts. Looking at your shorts I do not think I have watched one of them as I always watch you videos through your website. Will go and 'binge ' watch them now!
Good update in your hurly life Peter, good luck with the move and all that. Great news on the saw.😂
FFX have them for £1,544 with free delivery, saving £50ish
It’s a shame you’ve had to do that with the saw sometimes amazons the best place for delivery times not always the best price look forward to seeing your thoughts on the saw have you every thought of trying TikTok rather than the YouTube shorts videos that i have put on TikTok seem to do not to badly and I’m sure someone with the instagram following you have the videos would do great on TikTok hope this helps
Thanks
Derek
It's quite unbelievable that you can wait 4 Months, but then get one in a matter of days from Amazon (hopefully 😁). I'm sure there won't be any issues with warranties either.
Have a great Bank Holiday, I will be taking down and packing away our Caravan Awning on Monday ready for travelling home on Tuesday.
