Hi Tom.

It's a photograph taken of yourself by yourself (or by another person in the photograph) using a tablet or smartphone device. In my example my neighbour held his iPhone at arms length.

However for the purposes of this thread, any photograph of you using a Festool is certainly OK.

And thank you Scott for being the first.

Brett, I also have a niece who posts about 3 to 4 selfies a day on various apps etc. Always the same pose, face half in the picture & a silly looking pout. Like you i would love to say something but best not to

Aww, you've got one of those drifting carts. They look magic fun

Ok, gotta admit, I am starting to wonder if the criteria of a selfie USING your Festools was too stringent.

How about maybe a picture of members just in the same room with their favorite Festools?

Such a simple thread is choking on paralysis by analysis.

Post them up, tool geeks!

My actual selfie wasn't good at all.
I'm currently working on the Spring Valley Schoolhouse. A one room schoolhouse that is a guest house for a winery.

Screen shot from a video I did in Germany when Festool first intro'd the KA65.

If you're interested at all, the complete video is here

Come clean. That is security camera footage. You were attempting to steal that tool.

Yup, I did try to steal it, but they caught me and forced me to buy it...along with the MFT3 Table Insert for it and other accessories. Little pricey!

JMB you'll have a go kart track in your workshop soon

MacGyver felt left out. He did have a Systainer as a first bed. He did go thru the whole Fogtainer project as inspector and protector. And he has spent a ton of time hearing about the FOG and he has been studying for years to become a Moderator. Case in point.

Nice photo Peter.
And thanks for ALL that you two do.

Untidy...you guys look like the proverbial mad scientists !!

More like two old . . . . s let loose in a Festool Lab!

Thank you all for your comments and in particular, appreciation to Scott, Peter, JmbFestool, kristherookie, tjbwni, SittingElf, Alkaline and RJNeal, for your selfies.

To date we have seen a master painter/finisher at work, a young gun professional letting off steam in his superb self built workshop, one version of an ultimate Festool garage workshop, mastering the complex mitres of an old school house, a hand that Festool should hire for modelling work, the contemplation of yet another masterpiece, a view from Festool Heaven, and an adorable dog that I am sure gives much pleasure and love to his master, and . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . So keep them coming Foggers.

As you can see in the range so far, and as Scott implied you don't have to over think this.

I am waiting is fear for the selfies from those who love their festool's and especially from the guy who finds his Kapex sexy, the mind boggles as to what these guys do with the extraction outlet

Kind of an odd implication.

I personally think the Kapex is a pretty nice looking rig.

Here is a pick from today which accomplishes three things...
Selfie Post, things to do with minisys post and a thank you to a special fogger (you know who you are) who made the Festool Apron "AIE" for me.
Back to work tomorrow.
Cheers Guys.
