Video Review of Festool Commemorative Stein

[maxpower10]

That was the funniest thing I've seen on this site!  Hilarious.  If you ever need any drunk stand ins for future videos, I'm your man!

heh heh, I had a couple other funny ones to put in there, but didn't think I could get my friend to haul a replacement sheet of MDF for me this weekend.  'nuff said.

So, for the record, I didn't drink all those beers in the background (that night...) but had a few for, uh, added realism.  That said, editing the video a little later was more challenging than usual.  But a lot of fun.

I'm so glad the Canadians got the "Robertson-drive peoples" joke...

Some of us 'mericans got it, too.  [big grin]

We did Paul.  We just wished that Mr Robertson had negotiated better ages ago now with Mr Ford to have made it the standard for screws.  Except for drywalling, Phillips are only a slight improvement on the old fashioned straight slot screw.  Torx screws I think have a much wider acceptance than Robertsons in the US, or am I wrong here.

Those tappered square hole heads are a real plus for holding screws when trying to negotiate a screw into a necessary non two hand held application.  Unfortunately, Mr Robertson had "Sony" type ideas on how to royalty/license his superior screw head, and although we have them available readily in Canada, it would have been nice to have had the world adopt his design for all the ancilliary stuff that would have resulted.  It's what has kept me from the Festool Centrotec myself, amongts a long list of other offerings related to the simple fastening/screwing items that make life easy.  Just a shame really.

Paul, I'm just not sure which one of your videos will win, but you've posted so many, and so well done, you've got to win imo.  You've got an excellent presentation, persona, and well executed comprehension of what you've been demonstrating, I'd be surprised if you were SHUT OUT (Hockey pun intended).
