    And to think I wasted all that time making my own.

    It never fails. Every month I save up some tool funds. I dream of purchasing the magical tool that will complete my woodworking shop like the JMPv2 from BridgeCity Tools. It would simplify or solve almost all my troubles. Inevitability, Lee Valley comes out with a tool that grabs my eye. It's so practical and thought out I would be punishing myself if I didn't buy it. It never fails!

    Side Note: Watching videos of what some people can do with the JMPv2 is amazing. I'm never going to be one of those people.

    The mustache is my favorite part.

    Do the dogholes fit only the VOUBO? My current bench could use some more.

    I was going to order one but then got to thinking I don't have a dog so I really don't see the point. I guess the question is could a cat use the holes?

    Although the dog holes were free, shipping turned out to be problematic.

    Any container you put the holes suddenly looked like a collander, so had to stop selling them.

    What impresses me is that they say that each and every one of their AFD products is actually functional. That's real commitment!

    It's a great concept, I especially like the DUST tray and the "Gravity (included)".

    i love it. my favorite parts are at 1:24 with glue dripping everywhere and at 1:43, showing the ridiculous number of hold downs needed to secure a board. LOL

    Man, if this had come out yesterday we coulda got a partial break on shipping. Bummer. Glad the dog holes are pretty light!

    You mean it was a joke? Awww, no wonder I couldn't get it ordered.

    It sounded like Marc Spagnuolo's voice in the video (the WoodWhisperer).

    I already have a bench, so I tried to order two packs of dog holes but the shipping was astronomical. I'm thinking there may be a patent infringement on the "Murphy bench". Of course with that one you can use it in the down position to sleep on when you are in the dog house with the Mrs.
