I am past the point of any expectation as to a christmas gift. However, I always pay special attention to purchasing my darling bride something special and thoughtful.....always pays off.

I got a gift from my 19 year old son, that I rebuilt the SIlver Bullet with (74 2.0), and he could hardly contain himself while I opened it.

Best Gift EVER!

I just discovered how to really enlarge the image and now I see what it is! Kool! Where did he find it?

The guys in our local Ace (very local, 200 yr history) have a very old version of this hanging in the fastner isle - saved us time/money over the years making certain that the size and threads are correct....

How many 19yr kids do you know that know the difference between and 20 and a 32? Or a 1.0 vs a 1.5?

Or know the difference between a teener and a real Porsche!

Truly the best gift! Where did he get it from?

Very cool! I bought one for myself (sigh) last month. Here's the amazon link...

Best gift ever! Just know that when you have something like this you become like the guy with the pickup truck in the neighborhood. Everybody asks you to help them move, or in our case to check a thread. lol.

Can't get any better than that.

Smart Kid. For the rest of you, you can use a Tap & Die set with a thread gauge. Harbor Freight has them for for < $20. PS, don't try to thread anything harder than aluminum with the HF set.

Very thoughtful gift.

Very cool gift, smart kid!

They have those exact sizers on the fastener aisle at all of the Lowes. Saves us a lot of time with customers.

thanks, just ordered

Wait a minute you got a gift to check the size of your nuts?
