Review: Good accurate tool - Perfect
Review: A Tool You will Discover is Super-Useful!! - For most of my adult life, I have admired well-made vernier dial calipers and micrometers like this one. Finally, I made an investment, and cannot see any quality difference between these and the über famous Starrett brand. There is a useful, short and direct video on how to calibrate precisely this item on YouTube and if you aren't familiar with micrometers, this is worth your time to watch. Anyway, these are a true joy to use - and I'm finding that now that I can measure the thickness of materials quite accurately, I am avoiding problems with projects up front and solving others in ways I hadn't considered. As an example, my wife recently got a plastic lamination machine to use at school for her students. The plastic laminate comes in various mil thicknesses. Now that I can measure the thickness of, for example, a social security card - I can help her pick the right laminate so that the result is sufficiently strong but not too stiff. Moreover, I use it extensively in my metal shop. You can buy these with confidence. However, do make sure you keep and read the instructions, treat the instrument with respect - you can't toss these around like you would a T-square for example - and you will have a high precision tool that you can pass down to your grandchildren.
