Hey gang

Thanks for the feedback.  This has been a fun little journey.  I'd never
heard of Twix before, and now I'm stumbling over them.  Tony recently
posted a combo square by Twix, and I got a Twix Jobber Drill gauge in an
auction box lot last month.  No name brands on the listing, I was after
something else in the lot..

Then, while partaking of a GS (that I mentioned in the EP Nicholson
thread), I also found a Twix 6' folding rule, as a well worn metal rule
(and following pic)

Kinda like getting a new car, suddenly you see the same model everywhere.
