All- Women who know how to make their men happy are truly beautiful. My late wife gave me a surface plate. She kind of knew what it was for but that it made me REAL happy is what counted to her. (And of course her next frame was even better because of it).
She was fine with what ever I wanted to get bike wise (parts, as I made the frames) AS LONG AS she got the same for her bikes...
