I have a dial indicator and a set of micrometers along
with inside and outside calipers

A while ago, I bought a 6" dial caliper that's marked in fractions of an
inch on the dial (each 1/8" is marked on the dial, with, IIRC, tick
marks at 1/64" increments between). Lately I've become very fond of
using it for measuring. Not so much because I care about 1/64th
accuracy, but just because it's so much easier for my middle-aged eyes
to read than anything else I have.

I just wish somebody would make a left-handed version of it.
