started this last tuesday and finished thursday... had my helper only the final day... but again thanks to Festools being an excellent set up for on site work.. I showed at at job site on tuesday about 9  set up and started knocking down the sheet goods..
used all my festools  I do all the fluting, the shelf pin holes the assembly with dominos I pre primed almost all the sheet goods as its easier to roll on the flat and I pre prime before I do the shelf pin holes as then they don't clog up and makes it easier.

I even made shoe mold to go around the cabinet.  this customer is a camera man for atlanta baseball and only had 3 days to be home, did not think I could crank this out in 3 days... but hey I stepped up to the plate !!(lol) worked 7 hours  each day except for yesterday was 8 1/2  festool saved me at least a full day oh and this guy was 1 hours drive away.. so I saved another 25$ bucks in gas and 2 hours of drive time... so

rock on Festool,,,

 
Very nice! Adjustable shelf pins using dominos? I'd love to see a detail of that.
 
How about a decent sized picture !

That 320 pix image just isn't doing it for me :)

From a distance it looks GREAT.

I think he did the shelf pins with the LR-32.  I think he assembled with Dominoes.  There is a thread or two here where people used dominoes as "shelf pins" though.

Sorry I misread. As a newbie to Festool I'm curious what all tools and accessories were used for this project? Sorta helps me with the shopping list :)
 
i would start with the ts55r and then ct 26 or around their... then domonio and a 1400 router..

then if you do built ins with adjustable shelfs then the lr32 system  then a ro 125 sander  a kapex saw

thats a good start...  then some drills would be great also

so that would get ya going and dont forget to check out my youtube channel  builtinsbykreg  and you can watch me use these tools building cabinets.  as my channel is now over 375,000 views

any other questions just let me know....
 
Kreg thats a awesome built-in. Plus ya completed it in just 3 days. 

You definitely got it down to a science.

Your right about getting things done fast using festools.

My latest project I am using only festools (except a kreg jig I used to attach the base) , went together pretty darned quick to.  Not to mention I took my time with it.

The more and more I use these tools the more and more I really like them and find new ways to get things done.

Plus everytime I use them I learn new things about them and ways to use them.

Steve base was 100% correct when He said most people only use their tools to about 58% of their capacity.  Im at about 30% right now, but learning more and more each time I use them.

This will e my last project for a while as Im packing things up sorting through things getting ready to move. Then once settled in setting up again.
 
Great work....
Don't tell my wife because I gave her a timeline in term of months.....
