Forrest,
Wow!  That's an amazing project you've put together there!  Thanks for doing this!!

Feel free to update it as you find new information.  If you want, you could get all that into a spreadsheet and post the sheet here.

Excellent work!

Mr Anderson

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the evidence you have supplied which I will now use to extract a new watch out of Pat. He left this page on whilst he had to dash to the little boys room and I now see where all the housekeeping has gone.

I have noticed how he changes to another website whenever I enter the study and now I have his logon name I will spend many happy hours checking what tools he has bought and the stories he has told to hide them from me.

You are a star and you will probably get a few more messages of thanks.

Glad the list is proving useful  ;D  There's certainly quite a bit of bedtime reading there.

Sorry that your secret is now out, Pat!

Great job, Forrest.
I know it must've took quite a while to get all that together.
It may take a while to get through all of them. I'm sure lookin' forward to it though.
Many thanks

Great job!!!  A service to everyone here.

Now, Matthew, how can we make this a sticky? It should be the very first option a new FOG reader would find.

Sticky it is!

I update my Consolidated List of Festool Links from time to time, and I have just added a dozen new links tonight, marking them

so that they stand out.

Most are magazine reviews for the Domino, TS55, TS75, OF1010, Rotex 150, and CMS, but there are two which are particularly worth mentioning...

There is a review of the Kapex, which mentions a couple of minor "niggles" that will interest those who participated in the two Kapex threads recently, and there is a review of blades for the TS55. This includes six Festool blades, plus three from Freud and one from Trend, and explains what happens to the splinterguard when you change blades. Although it's an article from a UK magazine, I'm sure that it will still be of interest to US members. In his summary, the reviewer "can't recommend the Panther blade at all", and he likes the three Freud blades, describing them as "super".

Tnanks, Forrest, for all your hard work in compiling a phenomenally useful listing!  Now I know I will never finish my reading about Festool products and their uses.

Forrest,
   Great job but now list the 60 or so links from www.woodshopdemos.com
http://www.woodshopdemos.com/men-fes.htm

  There were so many excellent articles on your site that I didn't know where to start!

From the very beginning I mentioned you under...

    General  Multiple Festool Reviews and Articles (John Lucas)  http://www.woodshopdemos.com/men-fes.htm

...however I quite realise that it doesn't do you justice. I did originally say that I'd create separate links to each article/tutorial, so I'm off to do that now, although it might take a few days to index them!

Please keep producing your informative and well-illustrated articles - your website was where I first learned about Festool kit and convinced me to buy my TS55.

Forrest,
  Thanks for kind words and taking time to place individual articles in your reference guide. Your listing is so very important  to all of us and particularly new and prospective Foggers.

Unless I'm missing something, all the links are broken. They all go to the same place.
