Review on πŸ” Enhance Precision and Depth Control with Mitutoyo 050083 10 Depth Base Attachment by Jacob Leon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Buy the same item with a different brand name for less than half the price.

Well made product but not Mitutoyo. They only left their mark. As other reviewers have pointed out, it does not properly match the 500-196-30 caliper body. It almost fits, but doesn't quite match the dimensions given by Mitutoyo. The thumbscrew is tapered at the bottom and I suspect it will damage the edge of the caliper. I added a nylon washer to fix this, but this hack shouldn't be necessary for the overpriced $50 part. Luckily, the exact same Woodriver-branded item sells for less than half the price of Mitutoyo, and it comes with a plastic carrying case. .https://www.amazon.com/WoodRiver-Caliper-Depth-Gauge-Attachment/dp/B01BWO5AJS WoodRiver Caliper Depth Gauge
