It's not easy to set up, but there's an old video on YouTube about how to do it. The instructions that come with the package are largely ineffective. The tool is of good quality and consistently performs its function. However, I believe that a set of snap gauges would suffice.

It took me a while to figure it out if you're just starting out. For an analog gauge, I couldn't find much help on the internet. In order to calibrate your tool, you'll need to use another method of measurement.
Because the gauge's exact accuracy isn't listed anywhere, I've attached a photo of the certificate that came with it. As a result, the resolution is pointless in this situation. I'm not sure what the purpose of 0 is. With a listed accuracy of 0, 00005" resolution is good for. 0006" with a repeatability of 0. 001. 0004".
The results were comparable to those of much more expensive units.
I wasn't happy with it because the calibration and use of the digital part were confusing to me. However, for those who are more familiar with that setup, it could be a useful product.
Someone asked if the digital indicator could be removed and mounted on a stand; it can be removed and is a fairly standard gage, but it lacks a mounting lug on the back. It's simply a cover plate with no frills. You can swap out the plate for one with lugs.
