New-in-the-box Leigh D1600 dovetail jig -- $72.
Rockler was throwing the Colorado Woodworker's Guild a little bash in their Denver store. Offered 25% off everything but power tools and sale items.
Toss in $170 worth of Father's Day /Birthday gift cards and, voila' my final out-of-pocket was $72.
Thank you Rockler for the show of support!

YOUR out of pocket was $72. Somebody else, possibly from your gene pool, came up with the other $170.
Still, it's a really nice jig. Make some beautiful stuff for those folks who helped you get there.

I simply choose to ignore the fact that the net loss to the Conroy household was $140... Ignoring reality is a special management skill I've developed over the years.
Seem's to come in handy!
A'yup - already told my friends they've condemned themselves to a lifetime supply of dovetailed boxes, drawers, chests, etc...

One of my favorite 'current quotes' comes from a Mythbusters outtake:
"I reject your reality, and substitute my own!"
Works for me. Who's to say what's 'real'?
