does your drill gauge go smaller than #60? I've been looking for a gauge to measure sizes smaller than #60 drill bits.

@jonason321 Yes , the General No. 13 does 61-80.

Hey Mike, thanks for video considering I have just started model railroading, this is very helpful if you could take a look at my layout and tell me what you think that would be great.

Hello,Mike.

One thing I do for safety with my Exacto knives, is I put a "flag" of masking tape, near the end, to keep them from rolling.

@Blargaldalien

This is an excellent idea and tip. More than one of us has been stabbed by our own Xacto.

Wow! That is quite the tool collection. Were do you get the magnifying glasses that go over your eyes? And that deal that you have with the clips for soldering stuff. I picked one up at radio shack a couple weeks ago, but it had a magnifying glass over the clips plus a soldering iron holder and a sponge.

Thanks , Mike
