I was thinking that it wouldn't be too hard to make such a
trencher if one had a router tool... I'll have to sketch what it
looked like and see if my BIL can make one for me.

I'd love to have a facsimile of the two coffee pamphlets and the
book that appeared to be about CHOCOLATE! :)  I'm hoping the
catalog will have more about those pieces and not just the bit of
information that was on the descriptive placard by the books.
