    Expensive Tool Porn

    Just got the new Festool catalog today. Not only do they have everything I want, I want everything they have To make things even worse, they printed the prices!
    And I thought Bridge City was expensive.

    Now I really feel poorer than before.

        Weak dollar affects imports, but so does the material costs (both plastic (petroleum based) directly and others more indirectly (shipping)). Then your labor wants more (their cost of living has gone up......................
