Gift ideas for a machine builder

A machine builder will appreciate practical gifts: a quality tool set, callipers, a multitool, a thermos for the shift or a model of the machinery they build. For a female colleague, engineer or manager, flowers are fitting: a large spray-rose bouquet looks impressive, while red roses with gypsophila are a classic, understated choice.
