Re: Electric Caliper Recommendations?

I found an 8 inch Mitutoyo electronic caliper at a local pawnshop. Works perfectly. Same readings with old battery and new. Have several standards to check them with. I would normally use a dial caliper but the Prestige one that I was last using got dropped and is no longer working properly. The Prestige replaced a Craftsman dial caliper. Both the Craftsman and Prestige calipers were used for more than 10 years before they were damaged and made unusable.
I also have and sometimes use an old Lyman caliper that is made of plastic or nylon. Accurate enough. Reads within .001 of my other measuring devices. It was also the first pair of calipers that I purchased.
