Joiner/kitchen fitter - Northernboy87 - 19-12-2016
Hi all.. New to the forum world.
I've been a Joiner 11 years now and done many kitchens. I recently started my new job as a kitchen fitter and really enjoying it as it's nice to be set up tool wise just for kitchens.
Any tips and tricks would be very helpful!
Whats your best tools you guys are using?
I have festool ts55 plungesaw which is the bee,'s knee's and bought cordless dewalt mitre saw for cornice which is OK but thinking I maybe should have gone corded. The kapex festool mitre saw looks ?

Hi North
I did wonder about the cordless mitre saw, Kapex is a fantastic lot of kit. But really it hardly gets used, only on big traditional stock.

welcome northernboy
What's your beef with the cordless chop saw? We keep thinking about it due to the amount of site work we are doing at the moment.

Hi guys.. No beef with the cordless choppy it's a great handy bit of kit.. It's sufficient enough for my needs.. Cornice pelmet plinths etc that it's probably just me thinking I need more festool! Haha ?.
I would recommend the dewalt one actually nice and lightweight (I also on site so handy) there's a cool shadow light system it comes with. Light shines onto blade which produces a shadow which is your cut line

I'll be waiting for the cordless KS60 to come out.
