Favorite Christmas present?

[Onan18]

All right everyone, what was it and why? You can do different ones from different years, this is mine from this past year. My best friend since first grade gave it to me. I am not sure if it is my favorite because I have been wanting a set for a long time but was too cheap to buy them or if because she actually paid attention while I was talking about it and got them for me.

those are the only digital calipers I like (don't mind) ...don't own or want to own any though... I prefer my Starrett dial or vernier calipers

not for long the way starrett is going...I grew up around the corner from the starrett headquarters...a lot of their tools are being made over seas now, and the quality is *s-word compared to the stuff still made here...according to Doug Starrett (ceo) the quality is exactly the same....guys a *f-wording moron

Don't get me wrong I love my Starrett 120 dial calipers and most of my micrometers are Starrett. I just happen to like the Digimatic with the Absolute Origin feature.
