After watching your video I decided to brake down and add this track saw as my first track saw and wow I have no clue how I have lived with out it. I’m saving so much time and the cuts are amazing. Thanks for the amazing video on this.

I picked the full kit up yesterday and only this morning trimmed the strips and made some cuts with the bag. I’m totally blown away how good this saw is.
Having now retired my dewalt flexvolt because of buying this machine. I just can’t see myself using the dewalt now.
It’s such a brilliant saw that’s making me smile every cut. Owner of a few festool tools now I’m hooked for sure.
Great review👍

I really appreciate the deletion of non-important video segments. I know this is a time-consuming task but it is a great enhancement.

SOLD! I just bought my first festool thanks to this great review. 4 Batteries tracks saw and vac

At 3:33 "If kickback occurs, the saw will move forward out of the rail." It is my belief (and experience) that the saw will jump backwards out of the rail and the teeth of the saw blade will bite into the guide rail. This only happens if I turn on the saw and move the saw down too fast and the revs are too low. (slow start)
It never happened to me while I was making a cut, thanks to the riving knife.
There is soo much more to a Festool machine. It stands out much better than the competition.

Great video. As far as noise, however, technically the TSC is louder than both the TS 55 FEQ and TS 75 (which is the quietest). The UK Festool site posts the noise levels for each saw for comparison, and the TSC 55 KEB is significantly louder than the other two saws I mentioned. Perhaps the frequency you're hearing is more appealing on the TSC, but it certainly is a much louder saw by their specs. You have to wear ear protection for all of them, so it really doesn't matter to me.

Wow, the new blades are great. Ordered my new KEB a couple of weeks ago but they are delayed until May 2022. Thanks for a fantastic intro to this new saw.

[KarelKubela]

Yes I have it and it is absolutely amazing. The cuts are absolutely clean, it cuts like butter. Love it.

[Flyingdog]

Hey Brent, The kickback stop must also sense a significant decrease in blade RPM to activate. It will not stop just by raising the saw off of the guide rail.

I bought the saw and I agree with everything you say. I have a small shop in Boston buy all means this saw goes through everything. And no cord snags it is quality .

[pctatc]

great timing! I just bought one. its so much better in everyway over the REB

[AlAmantea]

Great Video and commentary! I agree with everything you said, and would go so far as to say that the TSC55KEB is my second favorite Festool purchase I ever made. (Domino is #1) This saw has handled everything I throw at it with grace and sophistication and is an absolute joy to use!
No fumbling, no "adjustment", nothing to worry about with it. Well worth every dollar I spent on it!

[DW-phxg]

Well done! I will be replacing my TS55 too. Also, I use EGO yard tools for my cordless equipment.

[AaronGeller]

This is my first tool by Festool and I love it. I agree that the sound was not nearly as loud as I am accustomed to.

This has by far been one of the most informative videos that I've seen here. I've also gone to a local retailer who didn't come close to explaining the features of this saw as well as you have done here-in fact, after watching this, it appears they weren't up to speed on what this saw's capabilities and features are. I'm one who does a lot of research before a big purchase and I think I'm closer to pulling the trigger on this saw. I don't know if you or any of your followers here can answer this question-CAN IT CUT ALUMINUM RAILS? Impressive workstation btw. Thanks again! Subscribed.

All of the my info I was looking for in one video, ty sir!

[thomaskoch]
