It's been years and I still hasn't even crossed my mind that I should upgrade from my $7 calipers.
I upgraded from my cheapo set for 10 micron precision, since I'm reaching that scale with some of my fabrications.
That's awesome!! What are you fabricating with that you need that precision? Also what are you making?
Parts for a thing. Don't want to spoil the surprise just yet.
DM me when you have a project post so I don't miss it!!
Any recs?
Not specifically. I spent $30 on a metal one on Amazon that seemed to have good real reviews.
