[QUOTE="Paul M., post: 2429876, member: 73165"]I have an [URL='http://www.amazon.com/iGaging-Electronic-Digital-Fractions-Stainless/dp/B001AQEZ2W']iGaging IP54 digital caliper [/URL]and a [URL='http://www.amazon.com/Jewelry-TBBSC-Precision-Milligram-Reloading/dp/B012IJCI1Y']TBBSC digital scale[/URL]. The caliper is essentially the best digital caliper you can buy without going to a high end Mitutoyo caliper ([I]i.e.[/I] the kind of instrument that comes with a calibration certificate and will run you multiple hundreds of dollars).
