Review on ๐Ÿ“ PandaHall Elite Jewelry Sizing Set: 4 Metal Ring Mandrels, Finger Sizing Stick, 27 Circle Models, Rubber Hammer by Linda Diaz

The ring ruler (finger gauge) is accurate but the measuring stick is a half size off

I purchased this item to buy a ring for my wife. I have measured her current rings but they have expanded a bit and are no longer perfectly round. The package contained a set of calibration rings (finger gauges), a measuring ruler, a mandrel and a hammer. Wife. I measured its inside diameter in several places to make sure it's really round and to avoid measuring errors. I took 7 measurements with a micrometer with an accuracy of 1/20 mm. I discarded the smallest and largest dimensions. Average 5 measurements: 17.75mm, 17.8mm, 17.8mm, 17.7mm, 17.75mm. These measurements are in the range of 17.75 +/- 0.05mm which means the size of the ring is actually round. Interestingly, the expected inner diameter of a US size 7.5 ring is slightly different depending on the chart. You use. The expected inner diameter ranges from 17.7mm to 17.75mm which means the ring size is accurate (it can be up to 0.1mm larger depending on the specific measurement and the specific ring size chart). However, the measuring ruler is a disaster. . The US 7.5 ring gauge shows size 8 on the supplied measuring rod. I expected a reputable manufacturer to make sure their gauge rings and gauge line matched. or less accurate. Since the micrometer (or its modern equivalent, the digital caliper) is relatively cheap ($15-$30), I suggest that you purchase one to determine the size of your existing ring. Your measurements will be much more accurate than buying a ruler. You will also need a conversion chart to convert your measurements to ring size. As an added benefit, you can use your new toy to measure other objects (e.g. the thickness of a sheet of paper).
