Moderately impressive in the skill department but absolutely a brilliant marketing campaign by Festool where owners of the tools flood U-Tube with a gazillion videos for free exposure to search engines, and are rewarded with a handkerchief. I thought of doing one too but the value of the work for the reward ….. just dont have the time to justify the reward even if I won the grand prize: )
The hold down clamps u use could be substituted with the flat cam clamps therefore enabling you to sand the whole piece, machine the whole piece without ever having to manipulate the clamps again and speed things up, no high piece of steel to get in the way of hoses and cords and no marks on the exposed face.
Im not sure if using a jigsaw is faster or would produce a better result in rough cutting dimensioned lumber to length when the Kapex is right there. A tip you probably know, but when making a finished cut on hardwood or any wood for that matter, you should first run the saw across and score the wood and when reaching the front drop the blade and finish the cut pushing the saw back. Those little lasers that look so cool in the video can also be calibrated in width of line, and closeness of laser lines to pencil/cut line. Yours seem a little chubby, and I don't know about you, but I don't find them terribly accurate, certainly not as good as my own eye. I only use them to bisect angles for the jig that that comes with it, for doing inside and outside crown mould, then I turn it off and cut the angle.
For sanding, the machine should do the work, with you applying consistent pressure, and not chasing around the wood like the rabbit being chased by a Beagle
An observation on Bessey clamps is that they hate the glue that squeezes out onto the dimpled surface, so I tape mine where ever the glue lines are, as its quicker then trying to scrap off the dried glue and with time, the clamp isn't worth the frustration of where the head wont slide over the bar, I find them beautiful in theory but not very practical in application ….. sorry, I digress
Your cinematography skills are excellent, and your shop is sweet.
I best get to work, and thanks for posting
