When doing lots of layout work where you are trying to pick up scribed lines for drilling it is invaluable as a timesaver. It also fascinates the kids, as it is an wholly unexpected combination of items. I’ve had one for years as well, it is surprisingly durable!

Just the right amount of heft. With enough patience you could drive just about you could with a claw hammer. I don't use the glass very often, but it's there. The rubber mounting sits a little proud of the glass, which I credit with keeping it scratch free. Have had it for 15+ years and it does what it says. Just the right amount of heft.
