[John McClanahan]

They never disappoint!

[Al Weber]

Order placed even though there is no free shipping.

[Jim Becker]

I've had one of their older versions for many years...great tool. (referring to the marking gauge of course)

[Peter Kelly]

This set of 60 CNC cut dowels, includes all the lengths any woodworker could ever need in both rational and irrational sizes.

Finally!

[glenn bradley]

You can amplify the usefulness of this tool by using old Yahtzee dice as incremental, stackable set-up blocks.

[Jerome Stanek]

My old rosewood unit with a $5.00 micrometer does just fine. I would end up losing half the dowels

[Jim Morgan]

That's last year's model.

[Clint Baxter]

Looks like one of the Woodpeckers One Time Tools. :D

[Mark Gibney]

When they offer the scoring wheel in PMV11 I'll buy it.

[Nick Decker]

Looks like one of the Woodpeckers One Time Tools. :D

Clint

Except that it's cheaper. And funnier.

[Bruce Wrenn]

Today is APRIL 1st. Not only is it EASTER, but April Fools also. Is this LV April Fools joke for this year?

[Rick Potter]

I guess I can give the kids back those Jenga blocks I borrowed.

[Victor Robinson]

Looks like one of the Woodpeckers One Time Tools. :D

Clint

Not exactly a coincidence I'm sure. :D

[Mark Gibney]

To Bruce above - I presumed it is their April Fools joke. It has to be, right?

[Bill Dufour]

Gage pins are wood? not hardened steel. Accuracy will not last long.
I used to have a pack of thick plastic cards about 4x6 inches and 1/16 thick. I wood stack them up to center my biscuit cutter. Lost them in a move. They were index cards for cds & dvds when a music store went out of business.

This set costs about $800

Well, an April Fools joke but from last year. See:


Hi Jim,

No - nothing this year, we're taking a pause... too many projects on the go.

The good news is, the couple of hundred hours that would normally go into an April Fool's tool has been put into real tools!

For those that are interested, searching for "AFD" on our website will bring up all of the previous April 1st tools.

Cheers -

Rob

No wonder their prices are so high if they waste so much making exact, working tools for April Fool jokes.

[Matt Day]

I love when people don’t get that it’s April Fools Day and they critique the item!!! That’s the best part of the joke.

[Jacques Gagnon]

...especially when you read the name of the wood used for making the dowels: « Lignum mediocris » - which is described as having 1/8 inch growth rings! Good one!

Just what I was thinking.

I got the mediocris but why laugh at 1/8 growth rings I have seen bigger just not in old growth wood.
Starrett sells individual micrometer standard rods for about $33 each. More for ones longer then one inch.

The Spider Vise is awesome, if that were a real product I'd probably own it. :D

Yes it is, just not for 2018, they didn't make a product this year.........Rod.

[tom blankenship]

I ordered two, but they are already backordered. Only $5 to have it monogramed with your initials!

[Alan Lightstone]

Darn. They were all out of the 250 piece set. I had to settle for the 100 piece set. I hope it will prove accurate enough.
