Yes, I've been in this field for a long time. I started back in 1975. I will probably be retiring next year a bit early - 64 yrs, as it's getting harder to put up with the BS at work. Metrology (science of measurement) has been fun while it lasted. Not sure what the company is going to do when I retire, but that is not my problem.

Going back to topic, I'll see what other items I have and post a new thread if I have other items.
We sound about the same age. I made my first tool (very ugly!) in trade school in 1970, and have never been away from the trade.
