***The Festool Junkie Blog will also be involved in this Contest.  Festool Junkie will post a blog entry announcing the contest to perhaps get people who have not previously been to the FOG to come over and register.  Furthermore, perhaps some ?guests? of the FOG will get off the fence and come play in our playground of AWESOME information; sharing their experiences with Festool by posting and lending to the community.***

At the end of the contest period, the ?top ten? will be posted, and all will be recognized for their contributions.

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A FESTOOL JUNKIE WHEN

You give each of your green and black little darlings  names and start to have deep meaningful talks with them!
 
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A FESTOOL JUNKIE WHEN

You start to concider murdering your none Festool tools by pushing them of the scaffold, just so you can get another new green and black friend !
 
You know you are a Festool Junkie when you go from a mainly handtool shop to buying a TS-55, OF 1400 router, CT 22, Rotex RO150, 1080 MFT, Deltex sander (haven't bought one yet, but soon maybe), Trion Jigsaw (Not quite yet but soon) and a Domino in a six month period. To attain these tools you sell off you Bosch jigsaw to buy the Deltex and your Porter Cable router to buy the OF 1400.

You also know your a Festool Junkie when the only time you visit another forum is to sell off your non-festools.

You know you are a Festool Junkie when you can count the number of Festools you DON'T have on one hand.
 
-When you look for ratchet straps and spring clamps that are green, to match the tools
 
-When you keep trying to figure out where your wife and kids fit into 'the system'
 
-When you have trouble figuring out which vehicle looks best in lime green, and whether the racks for the systainers will leave any room for beer
 
-you no longer plan projects for the end result, but by how many Festools you get to use on the way there....
 
-after an hour long conversation with the in-laws about your 'dealer', when you walk away they all reflect what a shame it is such a nice boy has a drug problem.
 
...... an anti-Festool comment is like water falling off the back of a Duck that has been dipped in Teflon.
 
Hi,

............    you start thinking that each tool needs its own permanently set up CT33 with MFT and boom arm (no, I'm not joking).

Hi,

    .............  you pay twice as much for a bright green with black connectors extension cord to use on your CT33.

Hi,

    You know you are a Festool junkie when you think about moving from the US to Germany!

Seth
 
Hi,

  .................. you can't figure out what TS means on other woodworking forums ???
