    Nice work! I'd like to have one of those.

    A bit of trivia that I have to mention because it was drummed into me by my friend Alf Stace, a Scot from Inverness, is that "Scotch is a whiskey, PERIOD!". A person can be a Scot and things can be of Scottish origin or nature, but Scotch is only ever a type of alcohol. His first day in the States I took him to Bonanza Steakhouse for lunch and he mimicked me through the line grabbing a big juicy jalapeno and a big glass of iced tea as I did. When he bit into the pepper his eyes lit up like a pinball machine, he grabbed his drink and started gulping it, only to immediately blow it out all over the table. Once he regained the ability to speak he declared "I dinnah know which was worse, that bloody gherkin or that foul swill" (he thought it was Dr Pepper). I still chuckle about that incident. So anyway, it's a Scottish Yoke.
    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.
