Review on πŸ“ SHARS Precision Indicator 0001 303 3205A: Accurate Measuring tool for Precision Engineering by Michael Boyd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty cute! fits test indicators

What a good part. The first impression counts and that is what makes it special! These are little things. First, the case, although the plastic has proper hinges, it's not paper thin and has a good latch! Next comes a sheet of paper with a serial number that matches the number stamped on the indicator. Now it is not known if they will recycle the same number but I have 8701652 so let's see what you get. Both clasps (brass tipped) are wrapped in pink protective paper and a small key is included in the box. WHAT, who knows, they didn't supply other sized pens. ? Maybe I didn't have enough money. Contact the seller about this. For them there is a hole in the foam. Next, this thing has some gravity! This is usually a quality feature. The pen moves very smoothly and there are no nicks! The yellow backlight isn't that bright in real life, but it's still easy to read. So far this appears to be a quality tool and I expect it will pass my calibration workshop with no problem. Let's see what the discounter says about the missing stylus tips. (Edited: spoke to the folks at Shars, it doesn't come with some bars, you get a wrench but no spares or different size balls. Really disappointing, they've reduced the price by over 5 cents. I'd like another euro to count. :-/

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
