I wonder if they make a left handed model - Robin??
great April Fool Joke....this is a classic!!! ....when I worked for Shopsmith one of the tool designers sent a fax to all the stores telling about the new Shopsmith key making machine that would be used on the Mark V. Even had part numbers and pricing. I believe he got several orders for the machines until they realized it was an April Fool Joke! Mike

Make sure you get one of those with the High Angle Blade option, for working with gnarly woods.

I sure hope that's not just Photoshop - talk about a collector's piece.
It kind of scares me.

I went to look, got hooked, and ended up with yet another $53.30 order. I put special instructions on it, too. "Make Rob personally hand-pack this order." That'll teach him to sucker me in like that, huh?

That just goes to show you that when it comes to quality, "everything" Lee Valley does is dipped in it.
That one got a couple extra dippings.
UA100, who is also hoping it wasn't PhotoShop'd...
Indeed. Had me going for most of it til I saw the "Happy April 1" at the end, and the lack of a price.
Quality job though, to make their little bit of fun believeable.

I'd be happy if they would actually make a smaller one of these, even with less capability. It's a good basic idea, just too big, and not real.
