Hi Bob,
These moles, are they from Brazil? No one named G. Peck is there?

I have it on reasonable authority that there are some problems with getting approval for the Jointing Queen due primarily as you allude to, the fear of conquest of the US market. It would be interesting to know if your local Festool weasel has a "U.S.ified" domi or European version. Maybe you could get a CB radio and crack the coded conversations between Das Kaiser und der underlackeygetestergoobens, then send results to us by Morse code. (No one will suspect since Morse code has reached its use by date.)

Regards

Rob
