I am hoping someone can share their copy of the plans for Tim’s MFSC and MFTC tables with me. I don’t care if it’s metric or imperial. I purchased them many years ago, and life happens. I don’t have access to that email account anymore and I’m back to a point where I have time and tools for woodworking again. I’ve tried emailing Tim but we all know he’s MIA. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I'd love to see the cut/dimension plans for the sysport workbench and cabinets from his Youtube videos -

Or if someone else out there is selling similar plans (I know there are a lot of MFT benches out there, but I really like this particular style of wall benches), I'd buy them...
 
This topic has come up before, and the position that has been taken in the past is:

1) Transactions between sellers are buyers are personal matters and Festool is not involved.
2) Plans that are sold for a fee by a seller are intellectual property of that seller and that intellectual property cannot and should not be transmitted using this site or its software.

Even if the seller up and disappears but doesn't turn off their sales page, Festool isn't involved, and just because something looks "abandoned" doesn't mean it's "free".

👍 yup. I know what a search function is and can read, thanks. Good grief hahah. I have no diabolical schemes to infringe on anyone’s design. I simply want to build what I think is the best design for my small workshop and move on with my life. Just looking for some help is all.

Out of all his designs the sysport workbench is actually as simple as is gets, no plan required really. It's literally just two common or garden cabinet box designs featureing a standard 600mm depth worktop, both are simply connected with an additional shelf in between and a faceframe on the front. Plenty ways to skin a cat, but if you stop the video around the 1 minute mark you'll already get some pointers. Most important factor: the Sys AZ drawers require 427mm inside width and the overall height of all of Tim's designs has always been 900mm, i.e. Festool workbench height [wink]

OTOH, I think that one can use software tools to work out many of the dimensions just based on the photographs. Maybe I am being redundant (since I have not read the thread and related background).
Sometimes working out the puzzle of "how did he do that" is rewarding. And other times it is better to spend hard money (instead of re-inventing the wheel).
In the internet era it has become harder to protect against IP theft/piracy. And the legal system (such as it is) makes it a tiresome effort to police.
