Scratched my head for a minute, then checked the calender.
Good try.

You have to like a company with a sense of humour. Pretty funny.

I do realize the date, Good fun, but hell for some drilling tasks it might work :-).. Not a router certainly but a precision drill perhaps...Lee Valley ended up producing and selling one April 1st Joke...
