We would like to extend another invitation to end users to attend a new training event. Below, you will find details about that event. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Course Description:
As the next step in the development of Festool end-user focused classes, we are calling for entries for a 2-day class focused on the onsite construction and installation of cabinets utilizing the Festool System. The class will take place at our headquarters in Lebanon, IN, and will be primarily geared towards professional applications.
In this class, we will cover the tools and techniques necessary to build and install shop-quality cabinetry onsite. Though participants will walk away with a range of broadly applicable skills, the class will concentrate primarily on the construction of a 32mm frameless upper cabinet and a traditional face-frame base cabinet. From raw material to finished boxes ready for finish, you will learn how to work faster, easier, and smarter with the Festool System.
Since most of the two days will be spent in the shop, actually using the tools, we request that registrants have some previous knowledge of the Festool System, and/or the basics of trim carpentry or cabinet construction.
Though we hope to add classes geared toward novices in the future, this should be considered an intermediate to expert-level class.
What will I learn?
Onsite Cabinet Construction
Installation Basics
How do I apply and how are participants selected?
If you are interested in participating, please click here to complete this online survey no later than Monday, January 5th, and provide a few details about yourself.
Travel and Accommodations:
Participants are responsible for all travel and accommodations. We will be glad to help you make hotel reservations at our preferred local establishment (Fairfield Inn). And for those participants staying at the Fairfield Inn, Festool will arrive for pick-up on both days at 7:15am.
Festool will provide basic refreshments (bagels and coffee) in the morning at our HQ, and lunch will be provided both days.
When & Where?
* Please note: Attendees will be responsible for all expenses related to travel and accommodations.
Festool training personnel in attendance:
There may also be additional members of the Festool USA team present periodically throughout the training event.
If you have already completed a survey for one of our previous training events and were not selected, you will need to apply again.
Thank you.
