Another Q for him: Brake, dial, electronic LCD, or vernier?
-------------------------------------------------------------
I sometimes wonder if houses would improve if the yahoos that work framing tract houses would serve as an apprentice to a tool and die maker for 6 months or so.
Hell... they'd improve if those yahoos were forced to work for six months under a journeyman carpenter.
You really shouldn't be using a dial caliper for that - it isn't accurate enough. Try a good set of vernier calipers instead.
And then, when you have finally become a fine woodworker and can hit the .750" right on, buy a tenths micrometer so you can shoot for .7500".
