Hello to all, from sometimes-sunny Weston-super-Mare in Somerset (UK South West).

I can't get make it to the Festool Roadshow at Yeovil this year but I look forward to next year's opportunities.

Welcome Colin !

That's a dangerous place to live, right near the cheapest Festool dealer in the country :)
 
Thank you Joiner1970

Do you mean the Yeovil shop?  (I haven't visited there yet.)

Or perhaps you've also spotted the excellent prices I'm getting at my local Nuts & Bolts Festool dealer  [smile]

But yes ... it's proving 'dangerously' easy to just pop in there and browse & then spend (again) on a whim!!

Hi Guys from SW Scotland, i have been hovering for a while now looking at all the pictures of peoples work and getting some tips for my new workshop I am in the process of fitting out a new 18'x10' workshop to go with my other 16'x12'. I haven't done too much woodwork at present although i have been collecting a few green tools. I currently have a ts55, Ctl midi, RO150, DF500 and a nice new shiny ks120 still in the box. I am really looking forward to getting properly setup and getting into my first real projects, Peter P kindly sent me the plans for his Kapex stand which i think will make a good first project.

All the best, Lee

Been registered on the FOG for quote a while, have only posted a couple of times.
I am a kitchen specialist and over the last 2 years have upgraded all my tools one by one to festool. I absolutely love it. Makes my enjoyable job twice as enjoyable! I'm self employed and at the moment I just sub contract to one firm. I really enjoy my work and I get never ending satisfaction from fitting someone's dream kitchen (most of the time, we all get bad customers from time to time) i am a time served joiner/ carpenter but my apprenticeship mainly consisted of kitchens and at the moment, 99% of my work is kitchens. I would love to have a workshop one day to manufacture furniture as well as kitchens. I have done a few pieces in my own home including, coffee table, dining table, and I made a bespoke fitted bench seating area for my dining table with built in storage. A few custom wine racks and cabinets for customers which I really like doing. I have all the festools I "need" for my job but there are a few extra toys I would like to have anyway, mainly a domino, MFT3 and CMS table but they will need to wait for a while yet
 
The Kingdom of Fyfe eh, welcome Ryan. 

JMB, nice pics, well one of them  [tongue]

Big belly ?  Does that mean what i think it means ???
 
Great guy by the way, in the British Army.

They need/want a simple butcher block island( 4 legs, bottom shelf and a top) for the kitchen. Obviously it's not feasible for me to build it and ship to them.

PM or email me If anyone is interested in building it for me and we can discuss the details , payment etc.

Cheers Mate,

Lee
