The most beautiful dovetail saw ever made

I will never have a need for a Veritas Dovetail Gang Saw in my life—I buy all my joints pre-cut—but I still want one all the same. It's $212, plus shipping. [via Toolmonger]

The Veritas catalog is definitely in the tool-porn categor -- I lust for about half of what they sell.

This is left over from yesterday. April fools. Try putting in in the shopping cart.

I'm almost in tears over the fact this is a joke. The amount of effort that has gone into designing the theoretical mechanism...

I don't care if it's a fake. If sex toys were, on the average, as sensuous (sensual? I'm never sure which word to use), we'd never get out of bed.

It may be a fake item now, but I get the feeling that within a few months we'll see it in Sky Mall.

heh. On the Lee valley "gotcha!" page, they suggest that the mechanism would be patentable, but that since the saw weighs over 10 pounds, it's totally impractical.

If Vash the Stampede was a carpenter, this is the tool he would use.

Just the thing when you're working around large offset printing presses. Car junk shops.
".. with a tool-holding capacity of just over 500 pounds." THAT's how Serious Sam carries all those weapons around, eh?

WHY, WHY, WHY!!!!!!!
Why must this be fake??? I want one! I would buy this, and use it! I would buy another, and put it under glass as a work of art!
Make this in chrome, and it could be a great cenobite's torture tool...
