Think you got your moneys worth yet?

Most definitely. It served me faithfully for these
years, and cost
just $20.


Then put it in a nice little shadowbox, drape it in
black crepe and
put a RIP-2008 plate on it, and get another one. They
are cheap and
frankly ...disposable.



I will keep using it, for wood and stuff, where I do not
need the
readout.


You mean, like, measure it with a caliper, mark it off with a crayon
and cut it off with a chain saw? sorry, couldn't resist.......;)

Almost!
