Well the Vegas wood show is nearly upon us! It should be a very interesting experience as I will be slaving away at the Festool booth.
But since Im there the whole time, I figured it might be neat to set up a live webcam. My wife wil be attending with me and although she is charged with walking around and getting good footage for T...
