Like Glenn i am tackling my to do list. One thing i have on the top of the list is buying a new caliper. I am going back to analog dial indicators. Had enough of the zero digital nonsense and not knowing if it is or inst.
So I know Starret is the ultimate and i am seriously looking at this one
http://www.starrett.com/metrology/p...nd-Tools/Slide-Calipers/Dial-Calipers/1202F-6
But LV also has this one
http://www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=46036&cat=1,43513,43546&ap=1
And naturally price is way difference.
What i really would like is a dial that does metric and imperial but i aint seen any. Does anyone know of a unit that does fractional and metric on the same dial ?
Anyone got any experience with either the Starret or LV version of the Starret.
Thanks all comments would be welcome .
