Wow, an $1800 tool they sell for $3240 just because it is discontinued by Lamello. It was CAD $1850 in 2016. It was actually cheaper buying Cantex in Canada than states (US$ 1800) back then.? I almost pulled the trigger. Now, if I need to trim the solid wood edge banding, I use Festool OF1400 with Freud 1 1/4" dish carving bit (1/2" shank) and 1/2" MDF base based on the technique demoed in this video?, I get the perfect result, the only downside is QF1400 is too big. I also have MKF 700, bought a 25 mm diameter router bit with 8mm shank a month ago, will try it. Paul Marcel modified the horizontal base to extend the capacity of MFK700, so he could use a longer bit for trimming edge banding.? ? ?? ? If Festool makes a lipping planer like Lamello Cantex and sells it at a reasonable price, I will probably buy it :) James
