Dale,

I make my living working with wood, and Lee Valley's catalog sits on the top of my catalog pile...................it's the best of the best. Not the least expensive, but simply the best. I can relate to the "drooling" aspect. I do it every month. And the line of tools they have designed and built themselves are a "must have" for me. I buy every one of them I can afford. They are great people to deal with also.
Chris :D

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.

I have a couple of tools similar to the wave, but cheaper and probably don't have all the same gadgets on them. I use one in my boat...very handy to have.

I totally understand this, my wife just doesn't get it though. For me it goes for almost all tools, wood, mechanic, and power tools. It just depends on what project I'm working on at the time.

Oh, I have the same weakness for electronics. It doesn't help that they opened a Harbor Freight next to Fry's, only 8 miles from my house.

Glad I could be of some help. I always like to hear about new tools, especially ones that can help save time and effort.
