What caliper do you use, /g/?

>>58383381
That one. Mitutoyo is a reliable brand that doesn't need recalibration every 6 months. Every single place I've worked at has had them exclusively

>>58383381
Mitutoyo, but the bigger dial gauge version, when I need one. Got a company issued box of Starrett 1-12" mics I use for the stuff that counts though. Calibrated and certified every other year.

the cheapest plastic one they had at my local independent hardware store

>>58383554
I regularly turn parts to .0005" tolerance.

Aren't you special

>>58383577
80k salary for sitting on my ass watching machines run special, yea.

Dials >> digital 2bh

you plebs disgust me

>turning at +-.0005
You say that like it's hard. Try doing two opposing face cuts on brass that's .100 thick that's +-.0005 then come talk about it.

No you don't. Not without working 10+ hours a week of overtime.

>>58383611
Not up to me, all gauges have to have an id# in the inspection report.

harbor freight 12 dollar one

it works

>>58383611
No nearly as precise as the other ones ITT.
What you posted is basically paying too much for a ruler.

>>58383611

motherfucker have you actually worked at an actual company

my goddamn rulers and stopwatches are calibrated

>>58383624
Yea, bit of a misstatement, just barely cleared it with a healthy amount of ot this year. Old heads at my place make 100k though.

> opposing face cuts on brass that's .100 thick that's +-.0005

I've done similar. Try cutting a nine inch long bore of duplex stainless with a 32 finish, accounting for tool wear and finish polishing. That was my nightmare yesterday.
