You're wife is a machinist? And a glass blower?

Cool!

  This is exactly when I hate English - I don't know it good enough to tell if I said something stupid and everybody will make fun of me or maybe it just you trying to make bad joke :)

    'made' to 'gave me'
    
    unless... she really did manufacture the device with her own hands!

      Thanks for correction. In Russian we do say 'make me a present' and it usually means 'gave me a present'.

    No sarcasm at all. And no bad joke!
    I really do think it is cool that your wife is a machinist and a glass blower. Mine is an electrical engineer and a web master. I met her in college when we were both getting our BSEEs.
    
    And, on a related note, anyone crass enough to pick on someone's mastery of a foreign language is a jerk.
