Gloat: It's good to know tool-and-die makers

At the end of this week, I'll be collecting my square (piece of angle
with 6.000 and 12.000 inch legs) and straightedge (4.000 foot) made
from A2 tool steel.

Cost: 2 dozen donuts. And maybe a 12-pack of Bud.

My father is a retired tool and die man. He has given me most of his
goodies over the years since he's retired and heck, the stuff is way more
precise than I'll ever need wood working, but nice to have. Enjoy! --dave

Yes it is - that's how I had an accurate bar for my table saws miter
gage made. It's still lousy, but it fits much better in the slot!
