    MICROMETERS & CALIPERS DISCUSSED (FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN QUALITY)

    I’ve never cared for Starrett micrometers from day one. With that said Starrett depth gauges are superior, as pictured. Brown& Sharpe were always the preferred precision dial indicators. Ames indicators and Mitutoyo blade mics were the best.....Accordingly, the 2002 dated calibration stickers...

    You didn't run into Swiss made Etalon tools very often inside the circles I've worked. Here is a zero to one inch mic, notice the .0005 graduation line between each thousands mark. With a little practice you could quickly read the tenths scale. ETA: pics
