I watch a lot of You Tub Wood working videos, they may not have anything to do with what I'm working on, but its the small tips I pick up that I like and so enjoy. I don't have any Festool products, I consider them professional tools for people that make a living making cabinets and so on...etc. I have a Makita SP6000J just about a year now, I love it has made a big difference cutting plywood for my projects. After watching your comparisons on Festool track saws one thing that I think every track saw should have and that's a riving knife. I got a kick back on my Makita, it happened fast and I put a gouge in my short 55" track. I look back on the incident as my fault and I'm always preaching safety and go out of my way to make sure I always buy a safe tool.... Oh and read the instructions too!!! One of the things you hear about Track Saws is Kick Back is not a big problem... which I believe is true... BUT it can happen... I'm now even more so aware of what not to do and I now treat the Makita with much more respect! I like what you said about kerf size of the blade and the riving knife. That's something some wood workers kind of don't pay attention to... I was talking to what I thought was an experienced craftsman... it was like I opened his eye's about kerf size and kick backs on Table saws!!! I enjoy you videos BTW I find myself using metric much more in the shop then I used to mainly from your videos and have purchased a couple of Fastcap Metic/Standard tapes which I love... anyway keep up the good work!

Jason, great video. Also, a fantastic way to address the "underpowered" argument. I firnly believe that using the right blade for the required cut is critical. Most folks leave a framing blade on their circ saw and get fast (but ugly) cuts. I've used my TS55 for cutting trex on my deck, for flooring work, and mostly for woodworking. With the right blade, it will perform well in any application up to the 55mm depth.

I do agree with you on the TSC 55 being the favorite. There are so many times I've taken my track saw away from a power source and it was the perfect solution. I have a TS 75 that I've never used and perhaps I might sell it to get the TS 60 to have a corded saw with slightly more cutting depth and the ability to be used on the FSK rails. There doesn't seem to be much of a reason to buy the TS 55 F these days nor the TS 75 unless you NEED the cutting depth. You made an important point -- buying things because you might need it one day in a blue moon is not a great justification. The TS 75 is MASSIVE compared to the other track saws - an utter beast. Though one thing you or Sedge may have mentioned is that you can cut more pieces of sheet goods STACKED than the TS 55 or TS 60.

I’ve got a pretty good 10 inch 10 amp miter saw. And I’ve got a very old crappy fence craftsman table saw. If I was going to buy one more new tool and try to elevate my workshop, I’m thinking I would buy the festival track saw, and couple that with my miter saw rather than try and upgrade my table saw first. it seems to me that for what I am going to be doing small projects, breaking down sheet goods, some cabinetry boxes, etc. I could really use the festool track saw more than I could a new higher quality table saw ? Do you agree or disagree?

Very well done comparison. I have the TSC 55 and I'm very happy with it. But I will sell it and get the TS 60, because I got 2 trees European Ash from the Lumber Mill and the boards are a little over the capacity of the the 55. It is a PITA to finish every cut with a hand saw. ;-) Thanks God here in Europe we have the PlugIt version of the TS 60 ;-)

Agree. I have a TS55-EQ (>10 years old). I was considering an upgrade to a TS-60 but that's not happening because of the cord. I have dust collection and plut-it cord hanging from a track on the ceiling. Having another cord is a pain. I do it for my Shaper Origin but it doesn't need the range of motion the track saw does. The track saw is exactly why I did the DC+power setup.

Hello Brent, I have been watching your videos a few years now. and they have answered questions when I was working on projects. I am planning to build a plywood cabinet in our garage in a 2' x 2' dead space. My thought was to build a 4' high cabinet sitting on 3" wheels and possible putting peg board on 1 side to handle cables and misc items. Since, I have a 10' ceiling I am debating about putting a second cabinet 3' high on it. The Mill where I buy most of my lumber has 3/4" cabinet grade Birch plywood. Presently, I own the Festool TS 75 that I purchased years ago. It works perfectly but as you said in the video it's heavy and in this case over kill. I have 2 Festool work tables to work on. So I have plenty of room to work. When you purchased your TS 55 saw did the blade Festool provided a good choice for sawing plywood or did you buy a dedicated blade just for plywood? Regards, Kevin

Can you make a video on tools for a beginning wood worker with limited space? Think half or a quarter of a large garage with 2 separate 1 car garage doors. I’m thinking of getting into this since I’m working on a big log bench I’m making out of the remnants of a 50’ cedar tree trunk I cut down to a 6’ log just over 24” at its base. The tree had to come down since it had some carpenter ant damage higher in the tree. It left the center of the trunk with some very small unusual small channels. My oldest daughter and I have been working on it together. We stripped all the bark by hand and the softwood using nylon wheels. We’ve also sanded it down and now are going to be doing a Wisebond color changing mica epoxy inlay (Excalibur) she chose. We’re going to finish the heartwood (seating area, left, and right sides) with Rubio Monocoat Plus 2 C Pure finish and the outside (bark side) we’re going to do Rubio Monocoat Plus 2 C Mist 5%. The feet are smaller logs I cut further up from the same tree. I’m leaving the chainsaw bar marks in seating area but I’m either going to fill them with black epoxy or just go over them with more Rubio since it gives the piece characteristics since it shows the story of how the log was hand milled in half with a chainsaw by hand vs a professional bandsaw mill. This piece will stay with me in the garage since my kids sit on it while I work on chainsaws maintaining them and making them run faster by porting them. Long story, I’ve learned from this project I enjoy woodworking and how it brings me together with my daughter. She enjoys sanding and the whole finishing process has her very interested so I’d like to build on that with the limited space I have. Any help would be appreciated.

Something to be aware of the reason why the Festool TSC55 Keb is comparable in price for the bare unit is because Festool has a reputation for nickel and dimming customers on the extras and with a track saw those extras are considerable. I bought a HKC55 a couple of years ago for the bargain price of £265 bare tool which was comparable to others saws I was looking at like the Makita and the Dewalt flexvolt. But by the time I had finished I spent over £1200 RRP £2000 battery charger, 2x 1400 tracks, bag, FSK guide rail + bag, clamps, track connectors, kickback stop, Angle kit, then theres other stuff you dont get with Festool products that you do with Makita and others, such as a fence and chip collection bag, both of which are an extra £35. So make sure you tot up everything you will need not just compare the bare tool price. Festool are shifty like that ;D

@@randysmith3828 The Dewalt tracksaw is trash, worst tracks out there and the saw is convoluted to use, Makita is a good solid brand and the tracksaw is meant to be very good Makita do make good circular saws generally. Bosch use the same tracks as Mafell which are the best tracks, they have a quick to use single connecting bar and align perfectly. Festool had to bring out new connectors last year to try and resolve some of the connection issues, that said the Festool rails are still very good better than most. The milwaukee hasn't been on the market that long so no long term reviews yet but early reports are favourable. Personally I think it looks a bit chunky toy like even, but the tracks look seriously cool in metallic red . Festool Makita and Milwaukee saws are compatible with each others tracks, they use the same basic design of track with only small differences.

I have the Makita cordless saw that came as a kit with cases, two 5amp batteries and dual battery charger. I have no complaints at all. Makita guide rails can be hit or miss. I got a great deal on a festool 118 inch guiderail to add to it. I think it's the FS 3000.. I have two 55 inch Makita rails but inspite of having the TSO connectors you still have to make sure they are straight. Moving forward I'll probably purchase Festool tracks but the Makita saw is amazing. If you plan to fully buy into Festool such as dust extractors etc etc then you should get the saw as well. If you just want a great saw, better price point, and hook up to a shop vac the Makita will be fine. You won't be disappointed.

The right decision should probably take the TSV 60 (currently NAINA) into consideration - assuming that it will come to the US. It’s a TS 60 with a diamond scoring blade. Just saying ;-) …

I own the now 20 year old Festool track saw. So according to all the internet experts its sh-t, garbage, junk, trash. But it cuts just fine. I do not have any experience with the non Festol track saws you mention. But I bet they cut just fine for 99.9% of users. And if I was advising someone to get a track saw, I would say get the Makita. For half, or one third the price of Festool, you will be happy. Back when Cadillac was considered a luxury car, you could get the Buick LeSabre or Park Avenue, or the Oldsmobile 98, or the Cadillac. They were essentially the exact same car, just a different name on the badge. For 99.9% of people using a track saw, the lower cost models will be wonderful.

Your power requirements for hard-wired tools do not make sense. How is it that the TS75 is more powerful with a bigger motor than the TS60 and it has a Plug-It power cable?

If the blade is the issue, then why can other companies produce a saw that cuts better and faster with the same blade? Blades have nothing to do with the power of a saw. They affect how efficiently a cut is made, but they do not affect the power of the saw. I like my Festool products, but the truth is that they are outdone by companies like Milwaukee in the power department.
