>clicked on a few of the tools than had to wade thru all the other stuff to find out how much the tool cost. Would of been a lot easier if the selling price was either listed with the tool, or if the link went straight to the tool. I only clicked on a few because of this. what catogory was the Auriou file under on the LV list? I never did find it.
The VP planes at BCTW where interesting but at those prices I'll pass.

$100 for a hand drill, when I can get originals for $5?
Besides, on the GW page that drill chuck does NOT look
