Precision Instruments
Sometimes I just like to make sure that everything measures up.

Nice photo Larry.

My favourite uncle was a precision toolmaker. He made, from scratch, a set of 5, Screw Gauges he called them. (He was from Glasgow).
They were kept in a beautiful Walnut and brass case, that he also made.
I really coveted it, a real thing of beauty to my young eyes.
My cousin inherited it,.....swine!

Thank you.

Your uncle sounds like the sort who would appreciate a quality mechanical watch.
