Default Caliper Extender

there is a 24 inch vernier caliper on ebay (or it just closed) - worth
looking there to see if you can find what you need

I need to measure some parts that are 24" +/- .005 and don't have a
large enough vernier. Would it just be better to bite the bullet and
get a large vernier?


I've got an extra 24" Starrett 123. They have a couple thousandths
wear at the extreme tips of the jaws, otherwise in good condition. I'd
sell them for $100 +shipping if you're interested.
