    Back in the early 70's when we were renting, the landlord lived next door. He bought his wife a new welding outfit, tanks, torches, regulators, etc. for Mother's Day. He got new china for Father's Day. They got along just fine.

    It reminds me of the Veritas Mk.II Power Sharpening System I bought for my wife when it looked like she was going to get into wood carving...

    LOL, I should try that with a bandsaw, worth a shot. If she doesnt like it, I guess it could go out in the garage.

    Everyone is different.

    One year for Valentine's day, I bought Diann a pair of tires for her motorcycle.

    The guys at work were convinced she was going to kill me.

    She was ecstatic over the tires.

    Nothing says " I love you" like a new pair of Metzler's.........LOL............Rod.

    Smooth for comfort, or ribbed for riding pleasure?
    My wife asked for a Hockey season, this year.

    Still working on that...

    I'm still not sure DeBeers is going to change or add to their product line.
