Very nice ... Very Nice Indeed!

Craftsman made precision tools, so the craftsman may make even more things with even greater precision ... and thus was technology ever advanced!!!

Nothing beats simple well functioning tools, especially if they can be made at low cost at home.

Great work Lenn - didn't realize there were variations to the basic tool we used in surveying and construction. "Plumb, level and square with the world" is what your tools bring to mind - a good way to live.
