The Festool track saw was simply brilliant. The price was high but I believe it’s worth it in the long run
Purchased in for $1,525.
A joy to use – I bought this saw as an upgrade from an older TS75 Festool model, which had seen a lot of use and after being dropped on the work site a couple of times was no longer the machine it once was. A test cut with the new TS 60K made it clear I needed to put a new splinter guard strip on my tracks because the new saw had a thinner blade and made the cut slightly different from the old model.
When that was done I started cutting some melamine-coated 20mm hardwood ply panels for a cabinetry project. I was amazed by the difference. Firstly the saw ran a lot quieter than the old model. The cut accuracy was incredible and the new blade sliced through the ply so easily. It also made a much cleaner cut with no chips at all. I previously had to edge the cut panels with a router to clean up the cut. No need for that anymore. It's also much easier to set the depth of cut with a high degree of accuracy.
I love this saw. It's a joy to use. It will save me so much time and give me a much better quality end product. Highly recommended.
This makes precision effortless – I have used the old ts55 in the past and I thought this would be the same but I was wrong, this is actually so much better and safer. It's quiet and cuts so smoothly, a pleasure to use.
Hi Nathan Yes, the Festool development teams put in a lot of effort to continually improve their tools. The new models are always improving particulary in ease of use and quality of results. Glad you like the TS 55! Cheers! Festool
