After looking at the various fractional dial calipers out there, I
settled on one advertised as "Avenger" from
http://www.woodworkersshop.com/Aveng...al_Caliper.htm

My first choice (in my price range) was Shopfox. The Shopfox, and the
one I ordered, both have the fractional markings on the outter ring of
the dial, which makes for easier reading/accuracy.
The Shopfox was around $34, and the Avenger was on sale for $25.
When they arrived (friend and I split shipping on 2) they were both
Shopfox calipers :-)

In case anyone is looking for a caliper.

Using it today, I love it! Cliff

Looking at the photo, the face looks exactly like the one I got from
Highland Hardware 3 years ago. For $30.

I'd say not quite a gloat, but a good deal.
