Truly fine copywriting for a possibly useful product.

Dang. I thought it was going to be those elusive skew block planes.

With all the rain around the country, that's wise - you'll now be equipped to lay out an ark.

I love Rob and crews annual offering. Several years ago he sent me the dodeca-gage to display at a joinery symposium our guild was holding. When it arrived at my house and I opened the package (a heavy one) I was amazed. Now I'm going strictly on memory, so don't hold me to it, but the thing must have weighed 15-20 pounds. It actually works, but unless you are Superman or a pro basketball player who can palm the ball, it would be impossible to hold except with 2 hands and I don't even want to think about planning and building a tool holder for it.

Yes, never mind using the back side of any tape you have around... now you can use the front of this one :confused:
