Selected User Reviews For ALUMINUM 24" IN/OUT METRIC/SAE RULER WITH CALIPER
There are some reviews that state, The output is inaccurate right off the bat. I ask a favor and ask you to stay silent if you don't know how to use the set screws on the head piece. It is easiest to check the squareness of a diagonal by this method. Transferring dimensions is a breeze with it. A simple and quick way to use the system. To deter the review trolls, it might be helpful to include a short instruction sheet.
All went well. I had hoped for this to work out. My tape measure allowed me to accurately measure in spaces that a tape measure could not reach or where standard calipers were too short. Anyone who has ever attempted to measure an open space with two rulers or worse, a ruler and some other primitive tool knows how difficult this can be. Those who have used a measuring tool before will recognize its value. This is true. Some people can make do with a tape measure, but for some purposes, the tape introduces fudge factors and uncertainties that make it difficult to design an item that will This is true. There is only one There's no clear explanation for how I am supposed to take advantage of the 1/128". It has a graduation of 05mm. The lack of familiarity I have with tools such as these is probably due to my own lack of familiarity, but some simple instructions would have been useful. It seems likely that a manufacturer expects its customers to know how to use a product as specific as this one. This is true. THE UPDATE IS An engineer pointed out the simplicity of the graduations when showing it to a machinist. The book is not in front of me, nor do I have decent access to it Between two normal hash marks, the graduation that lines up with the hash mark equals 128ths of an inch. A picture of this size thus has a great resolution until between two normal hash marks, the graduation that lines up with a hash mark equals This is true. It is a very useful tool, but make sure you use the right cleaner. It is possible to remove some of the hash marks using solvents, and if you lose the writing, you may lose the ability to use the product.
As for price, this is a good tool. It is made well and works well.
The tool I am using is neither the most sophisticated nor the most pro. Although it lacks a couple of features common on smaller calipers (central needle for depth measurements), it is still ok for my use, is light and cheap compared to others.
I feel like a toy when I use this.
Vernier measures are as easy to use as dials and have the benefit of being precise. In order to keep it from becoming scratched, I made a cardboard sleeve to store it in.
