Edgebanders and Edge Trimming Equipment
This edgebanders collection is built around the Festool Conturo KA 65 system and the tools that finish the job. You can buy the bander alone, with a Systainer3, as the Deluxe Master Set, or as the Complete Set with the MFT/3 Conturo table and MFK 700 router. Support parts include guide plates, the LR 32 guide plate, a magazine, an auxiliary roller, and the StickFix base. For trimming, there are Maksiwa RBB.4G and RBB.1000 110V edge trimmers and the FastCap Quad hand trimmer.
What to Look For
- Apply, then trim. Banding goes on with overhang. Plan for a router, powered trimmer, or hand trimmer to finish the edge flush.
- Panel size. Large panels are easiest to band in place. Small parts feed more safely past a bander mounted in a table.
- Glue supply. The Conturo runs Festool EVA adhesive in four colors. Pick the color that matches your banding.
- Shop volume. A handheld trimmer is fine for a few cabinets. Powered trimmers like the Maksiwa units save time on production runs.
Buy edgebanders at The Tool Nut, an authorized dealer and specialty tool store since 1994, with free shipping on most orders and rewards points on every purchase.
Edgebanders FAQ
What makes up a complete edge banding setup?
You need four things: the bander, glue, banding, and a way to trim. The Conturo Complete Set covers the bander, the MFT/3 Conturo table, and the MFK 700 router in one purchase. Add EVA glue in the color you need.
Hand trimmer or edge router for flush trimming?
A hand trimmer such as the FastCap Quad is quick and cheap for thin PVC and veneer on a few parts. An edge router like the MFK 700 handles thicker banding and gives a cleaner, more consistent flush cut on long runs.
