Recently I made an EBay purchase of some labels for the Classic Systainer. These are replacement full size systainer labels done very nicely. I meet a person named Bill Cooper ( cooperw@stic.net ) who produces Festool and other tool company labels.
These labels come four of the same on each sheet with a cut line to trim them to. I have replaced my original classic labels with these.
A request is made for your serial #, T # and barcode and product # off your original label so he can reproduce the exact same label.
In the past many of us have complained how the label does not stick on these systainers. I have found that besides looking great the adhesive on the labels works quite well for keeping them on the systainer.
I have attached a few photo's of the label and some of my classic with them on.
The four parts are nice I have a label on the front, top and both sides now.
His charge per label sheet is $ 6.00 which I think is fair.
Hope some of you like what you see.

Just one quick note on this... Unless he has software to encode the datamatrix barcodes (the square of dots), then it would be best to leave it off. The service department and warehouse uses those to track products by serial number, which is encoded into that barcode.

It looks like this:

I believe what Shane is trying to say is remove the barcode from these aftermarket labels because it you send your tool in for service Festool will think it's Bill Cooper's tool, not yours.  Is that right Shane?
 
Brice I have already sent out this to Him, but understand he uses your serial #, T #, Barcode # and product # on each of these labels so essentially these are your labels .
So even if you sent it back it would match you as the registered owner. This information he asks for prior to making the labels. all my labels match my original label Info.

Wouldn't this be a breach of copyright? It is, after all, reproducing an original Festool product for monetary gains.

Sal asked me about this before posting. I gave me permission to post it. I don't think the guy's going to get rich off of printing labels for $6.00 a sheet and from my perspective it's not taking money out of Festool's pocket. It's not a big deal IMO.
