We would like to extend another invitation to end users to attend a new training event.  Below, you will find details about that event.  Please let us know if you have any questions.

Course Description:
We are calling for entries for a 2-day class focused on the onsite construction and installation of cabinets utilizing the Festool System.    The class will take place at our training facility in Lebanon, IN (just outside of Indianapolis), and will be primarily geared towards professional applications.

In this class, we will cover the tools and techniques necessary to build and install shop-quality cabinetry onsite.  Though participants will walk away with a range of broadly applicable skills, the class will concentrate primarily on the construction of a 32mm frameless upper cabinet and a traditional face-frame base cabinet.  From raw material to finished boxes ready for finish, you will learn how to work faster, easier, and smarter with the Festool System.

Since most of the two days will be spent in the shop, actually using the tools, we request that registrants have some previous knowledge of the Festool System, and/or the basics of trim carpentry or cabinet construction. 

Though we hope to add classes geared toward novices in the future, this should be considered an intermediate to expert-level class.

Looks like Shane just can't get enough of us.  [eek] Seriously I know it has been said time and time again here. If anyone who has not done these can adjust your schedule accordingly to make these dates work. You will never find a neater group of people more passionate about what they sell and service. Brian and Steve's knowledge of the tools is outstanding. I would not hesitate to recommend these to anyone looking to expand their knowledge of the tools and/or their applications.
 
I'm registered for both the 12-13 advanced routers and 15-16 cabinet construction workshops.  Looking forward to the experience.  Am curious who classmates will be and where from... anybody care to chime in?
