As they have done for 12 years now, Lee Valley posts a new "April fools" tool on their site every April 1st. This year it's a almost 6 minute long video!

The Building of a Veritas® Custom Bench Plane (http://www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=72875&cat=1,230,41182,48944)

Fun!

Should have been a shorter video. Bored after 2 minutes. A lot about humor is the quickness of delivery and when to end.

You can't please all the people, all the time.:)

LOL! I like the air-tool driven screw that spins the whole plane around when it bottoms out!!!

Yes sir...I like it. Didn't mention a price this year? Good humor, always glad to see they can poke fun at what can sometimes be a taken too seriously topic.

They have the vertical bench on the wall from last year. Guess they didn't mention a price because they really do sell the product. Not quite as many choices as they seem to offer in the video though. Anyone pony up and purchase one of them?
