My all time favorite pastime since learning the basics. Only downside is the price. Zero complaints, love it. Nothing else compares.
System is compact, comfortable, sturdy and easy to use. Stainless steel bottom gives it a nice heft to keep it on your desk through use. High quality materials and perfect precision.
