I would have added a marking gauge in the end of the handle. One less tool to have to look for.

Wow. You know you've got it bad if you can see yourself reenacting ad pics 4, 6, & 7.

I've got to remember to throw an F-clamp in the glovebox for when I'm stuck in traffic!:rotflm:

I am sure the glass shops will love you also :gar-La; I think that if I had started practicing dovetails in bed my ex-wife would have become my ex a lot sooner. :rotflm:

Dove tailed toast. I though it was fancy when they sliced the toast diagonally.

:gar-La;Someone please tell me this is an April Fool's Day gag ad before I go an order one!

It's the real deal! They made a video and everything, honest :rotflm:
Last year's backfired and they started selling it... a "precision" story tape measure http://www.leevalley.com/US/wood/page.aspx?p=65357&cat=1,43513

Apparently the pocket dovetailer is an April 1 gag but just like all the others is really sold. From the Veritas web site:

This is number seven in our ongoing series of April 1st products …if you're interested in having a look at previous year's entries, just click the “item search” button at left and enter “AFD” (for April Fool's Day). Each of the tools shown to date actually exist, and is designed to do just what we say it does (with no promises as to how effectively).
Have a happy April first!
Cheers,
The staff at Veritas® Tools

Oh well, her loss for sure ... :rotflm:

I love Lee Valley/Veritas, but I don't quite see the point of this combo tool... probably my loss though!

They succeeded in their April Fools joke.

Every year, when Lee Valley does their April fools joke tool, they usually have some for sale. So if you really want one, you can probably get one.

To see the April fool jokes they have done in the past search for AFD.
