No, I don't think there is. It'd be good if there was, but I once spoke to one of the old reps (no longer with Festool) about FOG, and he wasn't exactly complimentary about it. He implied (and it was just implied, not said directly) that Festool UK were not interested in participating at any level.
That was, I think, around 2-3 years ago so the situation could have changed since. I really hope it has, and that Festool UK can participate at some point. It'd be nice.
BTW, [off topic] - I don't know if you saw the thread, but Shane set the software to autofil location for those thad hadn't filled it on their profile, based in the IP address.
Yours says you're in Germany. Unless you're on holiday? [tongue] You might want to go into your profile & change it!

Well UK festool must be reading the forums!
I had a problem with my kapex I showed a Video so they could see before I sent it of (Its the See-sawing Kapex Topic)
When they sent me a new kapex with any freebie I wanted ( I picked Alli cutting Blade) I got a letter few days later basically saying I hope your happy with the service we provided and all and you happy with your Ali blade. Now that eveything is sorted can you please ammend the forum and let them know you where happy with the service we proved! which I did ofcorse! So I have evidence !!!

Welcome to the Forum!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I cant help you much with how it really handles because I have only done 2 cuts with it. I used it to cut my Festool Guide rails 1400 into 600 and 800 and I cut 1 ali Threshold step it cut both really easy and clean just like cutting wood if that helps. but I dont know how many cuts it will do before it needs replacing it is festool tho so should perform well.
