Festool and Metabo are both German, Wadkin is British.

Festool is great if you're literally made of money.

Hoping one day we get a consumer grade domino, but that's probably a pipe dream.

Decided to get the metabo battery powered tools because they're the only ones that offer an adapter to plug the tools directly (useful for stuff that stays in the shop most of the time)

Zero ragrets! They're very good!
