Whatever you decide to buy is up to you. Both types are OK. It just depends upon what you get use to. |
I should take a picture of my caliper line up.
I have Starrett #123 series vernier calipers: 6'',12'',24'',36'',48'',& 60'' never found a 72'' one though. I also have a 96'' digital that's built on a table . I use it when measuring extrusions we cut here. It holds a zero and repeats really well and I can push a button to get MM,1/64'',1/32'', 1/16'' Decimals: .01'',.001'',.0001''
