Dust extraction is awesome, right up until the hose wraps around your leg, takes out your workpiece, or drags across the thing you just spent an hour making look perfect.
The Festool CT-ASA FLX J Dust Extraction Mobile Boom Arm Set fixes that problem by routing your hose and plug-it cord overhead. It keeps the floor clearer and gives you more room to move while sanding, cutting or routing.
This is one of those upgrades you think you don’t need, until your hose tries to sweep your leg for the third time before lunch.
