Out here in Pennsylvania, just wrapped my 30th year framing and cabinet work, and I'm charging $95/hr now because screw the lowballers. Been using Festool tools for a decade but their prices are insane, switched to DeWalt last year and haven't looked back. Anyone else tired of the Festool cult?

man, i feel you on the festool hype, its like they brainwashed half the shop with those prices. been saving up for a year just to afford one and now im second guessin every dollar spent. switched to dewalt for my drill and saw and damn if it doesnt get the job done without breakin the bank. sucks watchin the old timers push that cult stuff when us apprentices are barely makin rent. same shit here, wish id known better sooner.
