Default Shortening caliper length?

This may seem like an odd post but has a last resort I may need to
shorten a 4 inch digital caliper with a hardened stainless scale. What
would be the best method to cut this? I also realize that I will have to
reattach the stop. Thanks for any input!!!


I believe someone recently posted a message about using one as a cheap DRO
scale and said they cut the jaws off with a cutoff wheel on a Dremel tool.

A quick Google search found this message:
