can you tell me what you used for those cabinet doors?

are the slabs concrete?

 

[FEStastic]

Hi

The tops are 20mm thick solid surface
the doors are gloss panels  MDF core with 2mm solid plastic two tone edging

I realized on this one that i did not even touch my OF1400 now that i have the OF2200

Am thinking of a MFK700 for the smaller bits but was looking to see if i can get away with a Bosch GKF600
Anyone have the Bosch ? How does it compare ?

Thanks    Festastic

any of you doing any projects? have just finished a project... why not take a pic or 2 and share it... it only takes a few minutes and it would nice to see all the stuff you guys are making... or do you just buy your festools and keep them all shinning and new and sitting in your garage shelf?  lol

I look at these post and each post has major views but less than 1% ever comment and most of the time its the same people... its a new year so lets try and get more people to share and participate...

what do you have to say ?

Heres a selection of random works completed. Might not be the best quality pics, just grabbed them on the phone on the go![attachimg=#]

Jimbaulk,

Great looking cabinets and kitchen.  Looks like you have some great clients with good taste.

The curved cabinets are superb.  So.....when are you going to post a thread showing us how you do those curved doors?

[jmbfestool]

Here are a couple of pictures of my basement shop.  I'm a hobbyist with better equipment than I deserve to have, but I'm a big believer in "investment grade" tools and having the right tool for the job.  Most of these I expect to have for close to forever.  The built-in is my in-progress version of the Chaos Wall and my first attempt at doing a built-in.  The carcasses are all built, the Systainer pull-outs are all made and functioning (awesomeness - love it).  I've made my first (ever) 3 dovetailed drawer boxes so far - there will be 2 rows all together.  I haven't done any front edging on the upper shelves yet, and then the upper shelves will all be covered by doors.  I started the project around Thanksgiving.  Used the Domino, TS55, 1010, LR32, parallel guides, CSX, C12, installers set, PS300 (jig saw) and of course Mini-Max table saw.  My goal is to get experience making built-ins with this project (I'm doing tons of stuff for the first time) so I can move on to some built-ins in my house that people will actually see other than me.  Be gentle in your criticism please!

There is a Ferrari pic, it just doesn't appear in any of my photos.

That is a shop made dust shroud behind the miter saw with a 3" diameter line from the yellow Dust Gorilla (made by Oneida) in the corner. It works well because it pulls a lot, although dust is definitely missed. I'm guessing it underperforms a Kapex from what I've read. But it gets the job done for now. Maybe a Kapex upgrade will happen some day.

The client hopefully has good taste, my mother!

Just a case of making a former and laminating them up from thin bits. Not much fun and time consuming! Luckily I didnt actually have to do those ones 

 

[jimbouk]

All built in the workshop, only bought in stuff was the granite and the drawer / door hardware.
