The other day I had to buy a new slide gauge, because I've lost my old at the site ^^ Since there is a danger that it may happen again to me soon, I decided for a cheaper option. This caliper looks visually good, measures up to its 0.05mm accurate and does not play. Nevertheless there were features, with which I am not satisfied: - The guide is pretty stiff for a measurement tool; - The adjustment is sitting much too loose in the thread and threatens to fall out.
