It appears that Festool has come out with a table saw, well a small one as it fits in a Systainer? Hard to get too much data on it. May not be available in US or Canada and might have some SawStop technology. Cordless job site saw? https://www.misterworker.com/en-us/festool/18v-4ah-cordless-table-saw-csc-sys-50-ebi-basic-576820/75577.html

A local guy has a Domino machine for sale, includes extra bit and 300 Dominos. In a Systainer. "Never used" I'm wondering who dumps that kind of money into a tool and then never uses it. $1000

Now, I wonder which is costing more...

The van or the contents? Good thing is you _might_ only have to buy the contents once and the van will need to be replaced in a few years. Business must be good if you can trash everything you have and start over with everything, including that $250 wrench set. https://www.protoolreviews.com/festool-systainer-systems-for-van-storage-solutions/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=milwaukee_leaf_blower_gets_a_massive_performance_upgrade_plus_the_latest_news_and_reviews&utm_term=2022-10-16 FWIW, I saw a video last night comparing a bunch of brands of open-end / ratchet box end wrenches from $4 to Snap On ones. Surprised I'd never heard of 2/3 of the brands (but them I'm not a wrench person too much). I think all but one or two were made in China or Taiwan. I was pleased to see that my inexpensive GearWrench came out very well in most categories of the test and Tekton that I have a few other tools also came out reasonably well for the price. SK that the local discount store carried when I was a teen (but never bought any) did well, but was much more expensive. -
Hmmm. I originally thought Systainers were a Festool thing. But lately, I've seen it offered by other companies, so I was confused. Now, I find out it's an independent company that partners/licenses to others, including Festool, Fein, Makita, Lamello, Haefle, Senco, Metabo, Wagner, Graco, Bessey, Panasonic, Husqvarna, Gorilla (Glue), and a bunch of others that I've never heard of. https://www.tanosus.com/100/En/HOME/Products.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=protools&utm_term=2021-08-11 I have one. Yes, one, that sits empty on the top of a shop cabinet.

I got a Lee Valley ad today and one of the things was clearance items, and it listed "systainers" starting at $1.85. Well that sounded like a real deal for those things that generally carry a premium price. I'm looking down the list and they still seem dear, discounted a couple percent. At the very bottom are the "bins" (2x2x2-ish boxes) that are that price. Not drinking the green Kool-Aid today, thanks. Even the simple things are $42, and most things run from there up to several hundred dollars.
