I'm wanting a dial indicator for general use in a home workshop -
setting up in a small 3.5" lathe etc.

One I'm considering has a resolution of 0.01mm/0.0005" with an
accuracy of 0.02mm, For twice the cost I can get 0.003mm accuracy but
do I need it?

Ian,
You can only machine as good as you can measure
The more precise your measuring equipment, the more precise you can/will
attempt to machine. Get in a habit of this and you only increase your
skill.
