Thank God for calipers with a digital read out (in fractions)...

The grandson just knocked over a BIG drill bit rack :-(

Trying to read the etched sizes and reload the rack would have taken
forever.

Just took maybe 5 minutes with the calipers.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

I completely agree. I have many. Even the cheap ones from Harbor Freight are
worth their price and get used a lot.


http://www.harborfreight.com/6-inch-composite-digital-caliper-93293.html
is on sale for $7.99 right now.


I have one of these, too. It sells for $9.99.

They're also useful as a quick inch-mm converter.
