Great precision meter for the price.

Like some of the other reviewers, I took some measurements on these blocks as soon as I received them. I measured the left and right ends of both faces. All had a deviation of less than 0.002 inches. 1/8", 3/16" and 1/3" were less than 0.0005" and 1/4" and 3/8" were about 0.0015". Reason for lowering the Sterns is that the box has the "Made in USA" lettering painted over it, and the sticker on the plastic case says "Brass Height Gauges" (not "growth scale"), which leads me to believe it's not…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Crumpled

Not perfect perfect

If 0.0005 thousandths don't annoy or bother you during processing, then this is the perfect product for you. I was trying to save some money. and not. With the money saved, I spent several hours grinding stones, plating them, and converting measurements to the next smaller metric measurement. I engraved the new sizes onto the brass blanks for the box labels and glued them. They will serve a specific purpose, but not the one originally intended. When it comes to tooling, you get EXACTLY what you

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • I can't remember but there was something

Good enough for most woodwork but not for precision work

I bought these gauges last December and hung them on my workbench in the zip pouch that came with them. I've used them several times for woodworking and they work great. However, I never thought to verify their accuracy. After reading some reviews that spoke of measurement inaccuracies, I thought I should pull out the digital calipers and take a closer look. My results are similar to some other reviewers. That means they're not perfect, but good enough for the vast majority of woodworking…

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
