A rather intense nap during the evening snews left me awake extra late last night. Imagine my surprise when I wandered across a festool infomercial for the multimaster. Definitely selling to the DIY, but the tool and the vac were orange.

Did I miss something? Or did they really drop a notch?

Good Luck

Are you sure you weren't confusing the Fein multimaster and vacuum with festool in a sleep induced haze?

Incidentally fein and festool are very much purchased by homeowners in Europe due to a different purchasing mentality there: pay more for quality and durable goods.

That is a plausible explanation. Thanks for keeping me straight.

But that whole pay more for quality and durability stuff would never catch on here.

Good Luck
