As most know, Rick Christopherson's Festool manuals are as good as they get. They can be downloaded easily by anyone wishing the best, but not everyone has easy access to a color printer. So I went to my Printer Service and had him print Rick's manuals -  Kapex, Domino 500, Domino XL, 1400 Router, 2200 Router and the new CMS.
I had the covers printed with heavy "linen" stock and a good binding on the back. Also, they are in  full color and printed on only one side - so you can make notes on the opposite page.  I will have the pictures up here shortly...I hope. [unsure]

So, what I will do (as soon as they are ready for pickup) is to include a copy of the specific manual with each tool when ordered, as small way to say "THANKS FOR YOUR ORDER."

EXCELLENT! Thanks Bob and Rick for the great information---
.

Welcome, but it's Rick and Festool's baby; I'm just the delivery boy.

That's a good thing for you to do Bob.  Rick's manuals really are the best (speaking as someone who has written several (software) manuals).

Great manuals about great products from a great dealer!

Nicely done, Bob

Thanks, Paul.
On another note, might you be going to Connect next week?

Bob

No, I won't be going to Connect.  Would like to attend one of those fests someday so I can put voices with the faces and names then go travel around to see the other names I know from that coast!

Kudos to you Bob. This is great customer service!!  [not worthy]

I believe this to be a completely unbiased (but correct!) opinion...  [cool]
 
So if I order a Domino 700XL manual I get a free machine??????
Dang that manual is expensive!
:o
 
Very nice Bob!   [not worthy]     Your customers should be thrilled.

Thanks All,

I know there are other dealers who also offer them; but I figured it was time for me offer it also; overdue in fact.
I also wanted it to be full color as Rick has presented it; as full color really helps visually. The cover and inside pages are heavy weight
stock, so not too easily torn and the plastic binding keeps the pages flat and when/if stored on a shelf, can easily be found and picked out.

So with Festool's tools, Rick's text and photos and good printing resources, I'll borrow from Filson's   ;)  signature line - "May as well have the best."

Bob,
Are you going to change your site from "Bob's Best Tools" to
"Bob's Best Tools and Books"? [scratch chin] [not worthy]

Seriously, it is a great idea. I have been waiting to get a Domino 500.
Now that I can buy a book (thanks to a previous responder, PeterK for the heads up) and get a Domino free,
I wood not have such a difficult time justifying such a purchase to THE BOSS.
She likes to read.  [thanks]

Bob, I was hoping to go, and in fact, got an invitation from a friend to join him, but alas, I have a previously scheduled other engagement on the 21st.

Next time.

Funny Wayne!

I thought it was a good idea a while ago and other dealers have done it, but as mentioned, in my project list was overdue.

That's kind of a bummer, Steve.
I guess, as you say - next time.

The bonus is that she likes to read.
The double bonus is that the toy to go with the book is made in Germany.
How lucky could i get. ::)

That's great Bob!  Now if you could just get him to finish the trim router manual......
