Mine asked me once MANY MANY years ago: "How many sewing machines does a woman need in a life time?" Mr. I have a drill and a saw for every occasion really regretted having uttered those words. Since then he has come over to my side.
I on the other hand have to clamp it sometimes coz Pat is a hobby astronomer. Seen the big dipper - don't need to see it again. Groan. lol
