Lee Valley Veritas April Fools 2011 Pocket Dovetailer

Veritas knows that woodworkers are super-busy these days, short on tool storage space and with lower budgets than ever before. With this in mind, they went on to develop the Pocket Dovetailer, an all-in-one tool for on-the-go dovetail joinery.

This fictional tool features a built-in 14 TPI saw blade, 1/4″ and 1/2″ chisels, a marking knife and removable 1:6 and 1:8 dovetail markers.
