Festool TS 55 & CT 26 - officially the fastest way to lay flooring!

[Administrator_JSVN]

Congrats to these guys for laying a bunch of parquet flooring in about 3:20, a new world record. If you look closely, you'll see them in the background using the TS.

The team from Holland included 16 "fitters" who, according to UK Flooring Direct, glued down about 215 square feet of wood flooring panels.

Just a video I happened to find on the web and thought I'd share.

Dang, they even made up each individual section too.

That looked like great fun [smile] I'm currently laying a Carlisle wide plank pine floor (13" to 19" planks) & I'm using at TS 55 & the Midi with the rapid clamp. I'm not any where near as rapid, but the Festools are making easy work of it.  [thumbs up]
