The Wood Whisperer and Festool are proud to announce The FesCool Giveaway. Every month, we will have a drawing for a free Festool tool! I’ll wait for you to recover……

At the end of every month, Festool will send a lucky Wood Whisperer viewer one of their innovative tools. Most months, it will be a ETS 125 5″ Random Orbit Sander.

But occasionally throughout the year, Festool will offer up one of their other tool-icious items from their menu. We’re talking things like the TS-55 Circular Saw, The RO-150 Rotex Sander, and The TRION Jigsaw.

All you need to do is answer the Monthly Challenge Question which can be found on the FesCool Giveaway Page. You can get all the details there.

****Please note that the contest is only available to US and Canadian residents. One household entry per month.

    Cool, cool, Fescool! I’ve dreamed about it, I’ve even prayed to the gods and finally a way for me to get free Festools! There really is a Santa Claus! Thanks for making this stuff happen, Marc.

    SWEET NUTS! I can hardly believe what I’m seeing. FREE FESTOOLS!
    We always knew Marc was a living legend, but now… he’s been elevated to the same level as the Chuck Norris. The greatest man to have ever lived.

    In Fact Norris is so amazing that every year on his birthday, Chuck picks one lucky person to throw into the sun.

    But even more impressive, Marc got Festool to give away tools! Every month! Now that is tough!

    Thanks for hookn this contest up Marc.

    FREE FESTOOL??? Are you freaking kidding me?!?!?

    Marc, you and Nicole just keep making an awesome site better and better all the time. The educational and entertainment parts of this site have always been the bomb, but this just shoots it to the moon! :-)

    I can’t say enough how awesome this is. Well done, sir!

    Darn this border. Darn Darn Darn.
    Sometimes universal healthcare pales in comparison to free tools… ;-(

    PS: Hey Mark, I hope Nicole gets healthcare at her job, otherwise, you’d best not injure yourself!

    ps: Sorry, that ‘k’ slipped in there by accident. Really, it was supposed to be a ‘c’ !!

    Kendall, You’re hilarious.

  10. Gary on September 11th, 2007 6:01 pm

    Marc - nice dude! You’re making up for Festool’s lack of discount! I like 100% discount even better!

    Marc and Nicole, just look at what your hard work has created. The site is entertaining, it educates and continues to grow. You two should be proud of yourselves.

    Well done on the giveaway guys; gives someone who may not be able to afford a Festool product the chance.

    I do have a suggestion though. I understand that the items can’t be shipped out of the US/CAN for various reasons. But instead of not allowing people outside of the US/CAN from entering, allow them, if they win, to donate the prize to a worthy cause? Or raffle it off for credit in the TWW Store?

    What do ya think? (and yes, I live in the great land of Aus!)

    Man you guys sure know how to feed my addiction!!! This is awesome!!

  14. Vic on September 15th, 2007 10:23 pm

    Marc,
    In the unlikely event I don’t win every month’s tool, sooner or later I plan on actually buying several parts of the Festool system. The question is whether there is a way for you to get money when I do. I just got a new Rockler in today that has Festool plastered over the first several pages. Can you maybe talk to your people at Festool and at Amazon so maybe I could buy through TWW Store? Again, I’m asking more for the other people who aren’t going to win, more than for myself. What can I say; I’m full of love and compassion for my fellow woodworker.

  15. thewoodwhisperer on September 16th, 2007 12:48 am

    Hey, thanks for thinking of us Vic. Up till now, there was really no way for us to receive a referral fee for Festool items. But now that Rockler is selling Festool, you should be able to use our standard Rocker links (in the right hand column of the TWW home page) to get to Rockler.com and order your tools. And just an FYI, we actually get a higher percentage referral fee from Rockler than we do from Amazon. So buying anything from Rockler (using our links first), will bring revenue into the show.

    I really do appreciate your concern and willingness to help out your fellow woodworker. :)

    I understand that Festool tools are so good that they will actually channel the skills of all woodworkers using them through the worlds electrical grid and when you plug in your 1st Festool, all those skills are biometrically absorbed into your body and you become one with the universe!

    I’m anxiously waiting to experience my moment of Zen when I place my hands on my first Festool!

    I just think that this is not fair to not deal with non us visitors.

  18. thewoodwhisperer on September 18th, 2007 4:54 pm

    Sorry Bojan. That was a decision made by the sponsor. Frankly, I am thankful just to have the contest at all. Its a good sign when a large sponsor like Festool takes a strong interest in an internet-based video show like ours. Maybe eventually we can open the contest up to our international viewers, but for now they want to keep things simple.

  19. Vic on September 18th, 2007 6:05 pm

    Bojan, You can enter as me. I PROMISE to forward whatever tool I er you win.:D:D:D:D

  20. Bojan on September 19th, 2007 7:29 am

    Sure. :)

Got something to say?
