Sedge, you are the best man in the Festool Camp and your team is great. You makes this show not only informative but also great entertaining. I will now buy an OF1400 and a TS55. Please keep this Show alive especially in times like this. Thanks you and your team. Greetings from Germany!
Thanks for the great video and demonstration! I - AM - SOLD on that entire set up you just demo-ed! The router, the table, the stops, all of it! I want it today! Thanks guys.
Hi Sedge, I learned something today about the MK700 router and the use of guide bushing. The base is already threaded - awesome. Also, this is a great format for training and refresher to what I learned in your classes. I appreciate that as you go I can have a library of ways to use my Festool products. Keep the Live Episodes coming. Chuck T
I don’t know what made me turn my attention from the Kapex to a Router…. But this video not only SOLD me on getting a router first…. It also helped me decide which of the four would work for my needs. This does not mean I’m not going to get the Kapex. LOL That baby is staying on my list. LOL. But I just bumped the Festool Router up on my list. I’ve got a router and router table. I have like…. Three routers. LOL. I also already have a miter saw. But this video showed me how I can up my router game and do functions quicker and more accurately. There are things I avoid because I’d need to make a jig first. This setup with the Router is fantastic. And…I already have the MFT/3. I can see so many benefits to this. I’ll still get a Kapex later. But I’m still deciding on if I want the new cordless one or the original. I’ve used my miter saw less and less anyways. Great video.
@@rklaiss1 Mostly hardwood furniture, cabinet doors, gates and passage doors. I never use the MFK because I don't do any laminate work. I probably used the MFK 10 times if that much
i loved this video and I want to see way more! I buy all my festools locally in Vancouver and the people who sell it here barely know anything about the tools.... i cant tell you how helpful this is for a hobbyist like me. I think I'll buy one of those 1400s now.
Best Plunge Router I have ever owned. I have several Bosch 1617 EVS In router tables and on a home built CNC and I have the plunge base for the Bosch routers that is no longer used for anything. I also have a Festool OF 1010 which is also a great plunge router. Nothing else comes close to these Routers. IMO.
This was a great video from a sales perspective. A demonstration of why the system integration is going to save you time is far more convincing than simply having a sales rep/website say the words with no actual examples. Time is money and throughout the video you keep showing us why your routers are going to save me time completing the job. Maybe in the future you could do a more detailed comparison between routers to break it down. I know for sure I'm grabbing a 1400 in my next order after watching this. Also glad to see your editor doing an improved job this time of selecting which camera to use at any given moment when composing this video. The previous one was a little distracting with all the stationary shots just showing guys with phones hovering around instead of using the close-ups from the phones. And Sedge if you read this, your presentation is just fine, you speak crisply and do a good demonstration. I think the comments criticizing you come from people who are watching as entertainment/idle time instead of people really truly interested in what the tool is going to improve in their workflow. Well done. Keep these coming.
I guess im randomly asking but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Beau Israel thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thank you Sedge for your information…. I just purchased many tools from Festool as a hobby making person… It would be nice if you could just slow down a little in your explanation. For us and for your heart !
I have 1400 with mft table and track system, I have trouble tightening black lock knob on router the keeps router from sliding on the two rods . Always use pliers to tighten. If I don't use pliers it slides on me. I really tighten tight with pliers too. LOVE your videos Thanks
If you had to start with the first Festool router, which one would you recommend? I thought Sedge mentioned that in one of these videos but I can't seem to find that info.
Sedge... how to use the Guide Rail Limit stop with the Guide rail adapter of the OF-1010? There used to be a top mounted stop for that, the 485827, but that one is no longer sold. The new style doesn't work with the OF 1010 guide rail adapter, not in the way you showed with the 1400.
It would be nice to have the camera zoom in to the adjustment that Sedge is talking about. The iPhone cameramen are distracting and serve no purpose in illustrating what Sedge is saying.
Is there a way to disable the trigger lock function of the 1400 router? This gets pushed every now and then accidentally and really feels dangerous when I'm done with my cut and I'm about to set my router down only to notice the darn lock function has been accidentally triggered.
Awesome guys, thank you, please do zoom in on anything you're showing us. I do own both the 1400 and the 2200, and it really is great to get some pointers. I'm in the market for a trim router, I was going Milwaukee because I have the batteries, but maybe I'll wait for the video on the FS trim router.
Does anyone know which way the micro adjust knob on the guide stop should be facing? also is there a way to make sure the micro adjust knob is dialed in properly, if that makes sense?
Really super confused on router bits on the Festool website. I'm new to routers, but just looking for a router and pieces that will let me do dados for cabinets.
I happened on this by accident. I have been a fan since my first 1400. I have 2 1400's, a700 (need your bits for this), and many others tools now. This is the first time I had heard the template guides were self centering. Track saws are awesome. I do have problems with the polymer edge staying place. I have been to the connect events in Lebanon.
Great session, thank you! A tutorial just on the MFK 700 would be great since it’s so unique, I’m sure I’m not taking full advantage of its capabilities. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I appreciate the videos and am looking forward to the OF 1010 specific video. I wish this had been the 1400 video because the guide system description appears specific to the 1400. All of the information after about the 5 minute mark was of no use to me but would be great if I had the 1400. I hope you consider doing the 1010 first. (1400 guys have a head-start.) You are SO right. Bits are the key factor. I had 2 1/4 bits and 1 1/2 inch. I would have gone with the 1400 if I had more bits but I have the luxury of buying bits for my router rather than buying a router to fit my bits. As a less-experienced router user (fewer bits) I need some guidance now.
Olá, boa noite a todos da Festooll! Só um iniciantes da marcenaria e sou apaixonado por esseas ferramentas. Tem como ganhar uma serra circular de vcs? Abraços.🇧🇷
I would loved to have seen the depth stop lock down (which he accidentally blocked from camera)... I don't understand how the depth lock function works on mine.
Could I please ask/suggest that these be filmed with the presenter addressing the camera being used to film this? It's very unnerving watching the presenter "talking to someone else".
WTF is the guy with the phone doing?? I get that you are using bits of footage from the phone but two guys bobbing and weaving about is not the way! Other than that the video was very useful. We think we know all about the tools but I picked up several tips here. Thanks George, South Yorks
Sorry, I know everybody’s a critic, but I would prefer if you just had 1 camera guy and posted later, rather than this hodgepodge “live’ video. If you’re using 2 or 3 cameras in order to do “live” on various platforms, I think you’re sacrificing production value doing so. Sedge doesn’t know which camera to look at, the framing is off, and I feel a disconnect when he’s talking to other cameras.
This is the most terrible bit of film presentation I’ve seen in quite a while. Look at the camera! Keep your colleagues from jumping in and out of the frame! Demonstrate items to the camera, not behind your torso where no one can see! Oy!
Please be patient. I believe they are new to the live video’s and are investing in more and better equipment and as later videos have shown... they are getting better at it. I believe they started this after the pandemic started. I for one am impressed. I don’t think anyone, unless they have a videographer and acting backing could pull this off. Have a great weekend.
Sedge, you are the best man in the Festool Camp and your team is great. You makes this show not

I have all the routers and my go to is the 2200. LOVE IT
Robert Slack - Why do you say you’re go to is the 2200? What type of work do you do most of the time?

Ravi Pankhania same thing in Calgary. We need festool roadshow
For most DIY shops - a trim router (good handheld Dewalt) and a Festool 1400 is the best combo. You can stop researching.

Greetings a carpente from Germany.
Much better production this time, really nice job guys.
Great video, Sedge’s the man for times like these ! Keep up the tutorials....please do one for sanding

@Beau Israel It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D

These vid's are the best idea ya'll have ever had thanks for all the info. Now if we here in the Philippines could get your tools.
True. Never heard of Festool back when I was living there. Just heard of them here in NA.
Very good video I really like how you can use it with the track saw guide and use stops for mortises.

Same here! 😊
Just bought the 1400. Great machine
Thanks for the guide stop training, very helpful

Hi there! We don’t currently have any giveaways going on, but when we do we always announce them on our instagram @festool_usa !
love 1400 its the one I got and its amazing
This guy is living proof that you don’t need coke to get high, just a shop full of festool toys
You should see him on his own YT channel... SedgeTool. Totally different persona... same fun guy but a little more relaxed.
Nice video thank you I did learn stuff from that
Tell me do you think we will get a battery 1010 ? 😎
Man this guy is hyper. I wish I had half his energy.
I would loved to have seen the depth stop lock down (which he accidentally blocked from camera)... I don't understand how the depth lock function works on mine.
Can put a 8mm collet on the 700 watt router?
Where can we found the threated copy ring shown at 22min
What is the tool pouch sedge is wearing?
Nice tools.
Please next time showing how to use the festool DF 700 DOMINO joinning machchine, thanks Zafari frome Adelaide South Australia :
Do you need an IA account to watch it on IA? If so do you get a reminder like YT? I don't want to miss any of Sedge live episodes :)
Not clear where the 9 mm was set . Please show a close up of that
vvjkumar it was on the black foot. I hope this helps lol 😂
Guess who is at it again....ME, festool fan, front row
Could I please ask/suggest that these be filmed with the presenter addressing the camera being used to film this? It's very unnerving watching the presenter "talking to someone else".
Oh sorry i have foun your instructions in the part one videou about to dominos xl 700,thanks for that.
Awesome...thanks!
PIca markers are awesome!!
This guy has a ton of energy holly f**k lol

Complimenti, ottimo attore teatrale ma non ho visto praticamente some si usa l'attrezzo. Molto bene bravissimo attore.
Cordless router when ?
Brilliant 😊😊😊😊😊
Live on you tubeee!!!!Please!!!
WTF is the guy with the phone doing?? I get that you are using bits of footage from the phone but two guys bobbing and weaving about is not the way! Other than that the video was very useful. We think we know all about the tools but I picked up several tips here. Thanks
George, South Yorks
The iphone guy is driving me nuts!!!! Doesn't he know that the whole thing is being filmed and will be available on youtube? OMG!!!!!!
He is filming the live broadcast!
Nice video. Can you sort out the sound next time though.
That looks like a lot of caffeine! 😆
OF 1400 is only 1.877 hp, nevertheless I bought one.
You and the guy with the phone are not self distancing. You're putting yourselves and other s at risk. COVID shouldn't be taken lightly.
Is this a children's show?
Are you telling me Sedge is over 6ft tall? No chance
👍👍👍
Sorry, I know everybody’s a critic, but I would prefer if you just had 1 camera guy and posted later, rather than this hodgepodge “live’ video.

Dial down the coffee geez
Stay wicked faa apaat
Love tools hate noisy people
Get a new announcer.
This is the most terrible bit of film presentation I’ve seen in quite a while. Look at the camera! Keep your colleagues from jumping in and out of the frame! Demonstrate items to the camera, not behind your torso where no one can see! Oy!
Please be patient. I believe they are new to the live video’s and are investing in more and better equipment and as later videos have shown... they are getting better at it. I believe they started this after the pandemic started. I for one am impressed. I don’t think anyone, unless they have a videographer and acting backing could pull this off.
Have a great weekend.
the man is a little over the top sorry
Please do not wear finger or wrist jewelry when operating power tools.
Just when you thought Americans couldn't get any more annoying.... then walks in a festool fanatic from America
American demonstrating yet again they cannot comprehend the Metric system.....
2m does not = 6ft 🤣
In America, the yard stick is very popular. I have a yard-and-3-inch stick.
