Re: Preferred 27mm hose length?
Tom,
Had an old CTmidi c.2010 with the small hose. Latest CTmidi purchased had I
believe the 36mm, but maybe it was 32mm. Way better flow performance and
less clogging esp. When vacuuming up things

Re: Scoring blade noise
Well, to be honest with you, your machine is producing a lot of low frequency noise with just the main saw arbor running. I hear a loud rumble at 117 Hz which sounds like the electronic brake is

Re: Saw controls on slider
Hi Dave,
This may not be what you are looking for but may give you am idea. I prefer wireless over a cord. I don't think I put it in files, so I will do that. There are at least 2 more solutions in

Saw controls on slider
I'm tired of fumbling underneath the slider to find the saw start/stop buttons on my BF6 so am about to add switches to the end of the slider, with a 4-way curly cable back to the original switches.

Re: Preferred 27mm hose length?
Hi Rich,
Thanks for the feedback on the 5m hose, I'll give it a closer look.
I do have a Mirka Deros sander, the 6" pad, 2.5mm orbit configuration. I really like it, particularly for fine sanding

Re: Preferred 27mm hose length?
I have a Mirka DEROS 650X CV, it is 6" with 5mm stroke. I also bought the
5" pad (MK-915GV28-130), so I can use it as a 5" sander. That is the main
reason I bought DEROS, otherwise I would need to buy

Re: Buying vs building tools - the rationale for creating a MFT Table
Hi Derek,
I don¡¯t know about wages/cost of living, that¡¯s why I asked. Seems you can find just about any figure you want from high to low on the internet, so it¡¯s hard to say what is correct.

Re: Preferred 27mm hose length?
5m hoses here, no regrets, sometimes I need to scoot it away from under my feet, but I'd rather that, than not have enough length.? Also good for overhead stand, hang from ceiling, etc.

Hi Wade,
At the risk of making a broad, definitive statement, I will say that it has been my experience that all of the European hoses and vacs that I've used conform to the standard 50mm vac-end

Danke Lourens.
Perhaps we should be posting some of the work we do. I don't consider these fixtures to be fine craft. The MFT is really crude work. Fine work is done with hand tools. Here is my work

Hello Tom Gensmer,
Can Mirka hoses be used with Festool vacuums/tool connections? If so, that¡¯s huge savings on hose costs.
