NAINA, but in Oz

[clintholeman]

I get Tony's FesTool newsletter from Oz, and am really impressed with his FesTool Demo shop.  Way Cool!

It's herehttp://www.idealtools.com.au/webcontent116.htm

I wish we had one here in Sonoma County!!!

 

[Ned]

Wow.

 

[dltflt]

I think anyone who sells Festool should have that.  I finally got to see the CMS, That is nice.  I wonder when we will get that in the USA.

 

[graphex]

I hope nobody does that near me. That would be horrible. I'd be hawking my kidneys, car, house, etc. in no time.

It is amazing how little of that shop comes to North America. I count 12 stations, and at least 5 of them are NAINA.

 

[Mike_Chrest]

He Wins. ;D

 

[Eli]

Heh, heh, heh. It's a dangerous place to visit. I was there on the day all his stuff arrived. It was like ten Christmases.

Eli spent quite a bit of time helping out on the workshop project - thanks Eli for your efforts.

It's been a fun build - even funner now, I have a play-room. Hmmm I mean showroom. 

Sorry it's only in Australia for those of you across across the pond.

Wow!

You need some of that 70s hubba music playing in the back round of that pic.

Naa.. The music can't compensate for a good plot: Boy meets tool, boy fondles tool, boy takes tool home, boy gets to play with new tool, the tools play together for a bit.

Dang!!! How much is the Festool coffee maker?
Lots of cool stuff. This concept would be nice. Festool has so many accessories that just are not explained for usage. Sure would be nice to have a place like that to go and see how it all works together.
Yep - house would be for sale and I would have to move into my shop.

The tools look great, but how about that floor, wow!

Thanks Brice. Your workshop floor is hardly shabby!

The timber I have used on my workshop floor is Western Australian Karri. These tall trees can grow up to 87m (287ft). I have used younger plantation trees, and these younger trees have an amazing variety of colour and texture from board to board... and even in a single board.

Some of the other trim around the place is old recycled Karri, more of a deep brown-red colour.

Well,  I'm in trouble.  I just informed the kids that we are NOT going to Disney this year...  Gonna take a little trip down under.

Nice digs!

 

[Tinker]

Too bad you will have to replace all of those MFT's with the new MFT/3's.  Let me know and i will be most happy to take them off your hands.  I'll paddle right on over  :

  ;D Just tell them they are going to Disneyfestoolland. Fun for all the family... as they wait out in the car for dad to stop messing about.

You're right Tinker - I have to swap out those MFT1080 and MFT800's for the new MFT3's when they become available here. Bit of a shame, but I like getting new boxes of stuff as much as the next guy... and the bigger the box the better!    So 10 excellent condition MFT's go to good homes, and 10 MFT3s get a work-out here. Win-win I would say.

So you can see my dilemma. How do I find room in my shop for 10 MFT's without building myself a dealership?  :-\

 

[Les]

OK Festool USA how are you or your dealers going to top the Anthony temple? :-\

 

[tallgrass]

i have tried to get an e-mail quote on shipping and price from reliable tools .....everyone seems to have good experiences with them but i can not get an answer???????? thoughts????i live in s.cal.

 

[southern_guy]

Hey, we even have one of these shops in New Zealand.  Have you guys in NA clicked over your calendar to the 21st century yet ;D ;D ;D

 

[semenza]

THAT DOES IT I AM MOVING !

                      I see a couple of Protool Sysports all filled  up too.
 
                      A sliding table router table  - wouldn't that be nice on a job site 

                  I have to say though, you really should have some of the Festool coffee  mugs at the coffee work station.
