OK, I have a few of these Calipers and they work great, except that the
indicators arenbt accurate and they are non-adjustable.
Here is a link to a photo that I put on my website to define the problem
Ibm having.

In the picture, the OD measurement of b
Ab
should be the exact same as the
ID measurement of b
B.b
But they are not. This means that as I measure a
piston and the cylinder bore, Ibm not getting a good result (the bore is
coming up SMALLER than the piston diameter.)
These do work great for measurements of the same ID or ID objects however.
So what I need to find is a way to make sure the calipers are b
correctb
before I buy them.
Any suggestions?
