Like to visit an all Festool Pro Workshop in ATL, Chatt. Tn, or B'ham AL

I have only one Festool item (so far), but I love the engineering and I'd like to visit an all festool shop as see how efficient it can bee (with no or limited use of a table saw).

So, if you have an all Festool shop, or know of one that might be up for a visit, please let me know.  

Thanks!

welcome to the fog.
the only posible festool only shop i can think of is the festool training facility (in lebanon i thin).
i personally wouldnt want an all festool shop. i think it can be done but its not practical . the cms isnt a patch on a big slider (because its aimed at diferent types of workers).
its like having a hand tool only shop , its posible but not practical.

you can use festools to do a lot of the big machines jobs (planer thicknesser,table saw,band saw,shaper,etc).  but it would be a comprimise and slower.
you wont beat a planer thicknesser for flattinging boards,
you wont beat a shaper for fast stock removel,
you wont beat a band saw for curved work  (external edges only thow)
i wish festool would make a band saw that  you could open the blade or drop the piece on from the top or some other magic .
