Why is it so good?

[Red Devil]

I am a veteran pro working on Vancouver Island in Canada.
Over the last few months I've been sliding down the slippery slope.
Questions; How did I ever work without this stuff? When can I get more!?
My xl700 paid for itself in about three weeks.
All I can say is wow!
Shout out to Dan Clermont at Ultimate Tools. I look forward to dealing with you.
Let the festimes roll!

Better view in this one.
Over the past year I have had the unexpected pleasure of using festools.
About 4 months ago I bought a bunch of my own. No stopping now.
I've always taken pride in having good quality, sharp tools. But these things allow me to take to a whole new level. I was using a colleagues tools at a mill work shop where I sub a lot if work. But after a time I just had to have my win set at my shop for me a my guys!

Excellent work!  Thanks for sharing.  Very cool to see someone whom can really utilize some of these tools to their potential experience them for the first time.  It must be an awesome experience for you.  Keep the photos coming.

Hi Nigel,

      Welcome to the forum!  [smile]

        I can see where the 700 really pays off for the things you build.

        That live edge door ...........  Very nice!

Very nice work! Curious how you weatherized those accordion doors and windows and what track system you used.
