It took me a moment to remember to look at the calendar!
I think it was that last picture that reminded me...
Thanks,
Bill

Yeah, that last photo is the best. I'm surprised they could hold the camera steady enough for the shot, thank goodness for tripods, they were probably rolling in laughter.
But the Moustache in the other shots was also pretty priceless.

Hey Rob, you guys do great work!
That "Mijikai Yakunitatanai" saw blade must have cost a lot more than usual eh?

I always look forward to Lee Valley's springtime tool releases. Great stuff, Mr. Lee! 
Stu, is there an English translation for the blade name?

They caught me last year, but not this one! Although I must admit I'd like a saw that cuts so fast, in fact ahead of the sawteeth

Hi Vaughn -
Stu would (hopefully!) tell you that it translates as "short useless"

that is so funny. Ken, do you cut dovetails during dinner at the table with the family?
you could put it on your nightstand and cut a few before bed....

Literally, "Short Useless" but it could also be "Less than useless"
Nice!

"pocket tool"? I'm wondering how he got the bench, bench vise, mallet, square, plane and what all other tools he used into his pocket.
BTW, don't Japanese saws cut on the pull stroke only?
The tool is only a gadget/gimmik, IMHO.
But, keep in mind, this opinion comes from someone who has never cut a dovetail.
