Two moths ago I had a vision of this router table. Well, I finally got it wrapped up, thanks to my assistant who is an amazing painter. Basically, when he holds a brush the angels in heaven sing. Im really pleased with how the color scheme accents the individual parts of the project. I would like to thank my good friend BuilderBob for the inspiration for the applied molding and all his support and insight during the build. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I will, it has really brightened up the shop. thanks Eric

Sean, I had the best paint store in CT match it to a green, grey, and anthracite latches from the systainers. It brightens up the shop in a really nice way. I plan on doing an MFT cart and a Kapex cart this year and will go ahead and paint them too. Makes the shop more fun, Eric

Wow! So I guess that definitely is spot on. You went all out.
Looking forward to seeing the other two.
I think it's AWESOME that it actually does brighten up the room and makes the vibe that much better. I find that to be very cool and just one more reason why the project was worthwhile that folks probably wouldn't consider beforehand.

Sean, I was stnding in BuilderBobs garage and looking at a project he was working on and the idea came to me for the recessed panel and applied molding and Ive always wanted to do a tri-color scheme and why not use my blessed Festools colors. Everything trim wise that I do is white or off white. This is my world, Eric

Your wife must be a very forgiving lady if she was under the assumption someone would paint their kitchen island such obscene colors  |

Now that we're being serious about this piece ... it really should have had a glass door beer fridge integrated into the design.

How boring is this? I already have the concept for a Festool tri color scheme on a Kapex cart, Sean just needs to send me one to do a review on, not enough people know about it yet. There are two errors that I have found. The top of the drawer front and the top of the faux panel line up, but the bottoms do not and im not sure if I should have extended the drawer fronts and access panel 3/4" so that the reveal would have been the same on the router side. Bob come pick this one up, Im building a new one, Eric
