Awesome way to join crown without visible fasteners, love it. Thanks for the video!
Appreciate the video. Great application of the Tenso. The Zeta is a great tool & the Tenso & Clamex fasteners are awesome...
Hi Mark, we appreciate it your feedback! Glad to hear you liked the video and are getting some good mileage out of your Zeta P2! Check out our Instagram account if you're looking for more Lamello content - we post good stuff pretty actively there too. @Lamello_USA Best, Chris
Love this use of the tool!
how do you pull it back apart?
An interesting tip! Will this work on scarf joints for crown molding and base as well?
Sure, as long as you have the width to accept the connector and a minimum thickness of 9/16”

Great thanks
Hi,i was curious to know, for the difference size fastners, do you need difference size blades?
My employer has the cordless version and i use it probably 3 days out of 5.
Great tool although i sometimes wish it had dedicated stops like the domino when putting panels together save all the pencil marking. The battery life isn't great either
The P-System cutter on the Zeta P2 is a universal size. The only thing you’ll change is the depth setting knob (from 10 to 14 or 18, etc). Many customers build their own story sticks for their projects to index the Zeta against and avoid pencil marks.
Where is the best place to purchase this machine and the connectors
Hi Nathan - you can purchase directly from us at www.csaw.com/lamello or find our list of local dealers in your area at www.csaw.com/lamello/lamellodealers/
Great tool. Can you show how to join an internal corner. A bit tricker.
Really doesn't work for inside miters unless you have an abnormally thick moulding. Otherwise the cuts for even the P-10 versions of the connectors will poke through the finished side of the moulding. If you had a built-up moulding detail, I suppose that you figure out a way to pull this off by joining the backer pieces together, but I've never tried that. I always just coped my inside miters :)
Is Festool vacuum the dust collection of choice?
My Zeta P2 broke after 80 conetors cut.... have to send it to be fixed
Sorry to hear you’re having difficulties with your Zeta P2. If you’re in the UK, please contact your local distributor. If you’re a US customer, please reach out to us at info@csaw.com and we’ll help you out!
No fasteners visible, but what about the rest of the moulding? Of course you will have to have fasteners that are visible. And for $1600 or so plus sales tax, I would say this machine is relegated to the cabinet maker putting together high end work that he can be well compensated for.
Correct - I wouldn’t expect anyone to trim out a paint-grade house this way - that would be impractical. Crown moulding miters are not one of the primary applications for the P-System either. However… it is a very valuable added benefit to the system to those who have already adopted it for other reasons. There are actually some pretty clever ways our customers have used to blind-fasten pre-finished hardwood valances in libraries, kitchens, etc but you’re right in that those are primarily done by pretty high-end shops. The P-System as a whole, though, has applications across different levels of carpentry and woodwork, like column wraps, composite decking boards, PVC trim work to name a few common ones among site/trim carpenters. Many of our customers were interested in being able to make this connection in crown moulding, hence the instructional video.
@@ColonialSaw I have a Top 20 I believe it is called. Very nice machine. Also have the smaller Domino from Festool. The Lamello optional attachment pieces are very clever. There are a bunch of very interesting machines on the market for putting wood together: the Mafell dowel machine, the Lamello Zeta, the Domino. Of course none comes cheap. Cheap is not good, and good is not cheap.
