Hello from Atlanta, Ga.   Thank you for the post!---it is great to know that
these tools exist.  I had no idea....  I am an electrical contractor by
profession, and know the value of good (=right tool for the job) tools.  I
have encountered frequent problems using Husky, Craftsman et. al. metrics on
my two '81's---we do all of our own work as a hobby.   I hope that we  can
do business soon.  Happy Easter!

Regards,

Michael and Christina Nichols
