inQuestion about getting a gift for my dad who's into woodworking
Oh man, totally. I got my brother a really nice marking gauge one year after he kept borrowing mine. He still talks about it, way more than the Home Depot card I gave him once. That specific tool just showed I paid attention. It's like you're buying into the hobby with them, not just funding it.
