I'd be lost if the digital caliper got lost and I had to go back to
the analog dial caliper. About $65.00.


Yeah, those are great! You can find them cheaper, though. Picked up the
one at Harbor Freight for ~$16 about a month ago (for SWMBO; she loves
it. QC inspector by trade).

Lee Valley also has (a likely better one) for something in the $30
range, I think.

Very handy to have around the house/shop.
