Not Accurate Enough

Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I found this measuring tool very finicky and inconsistent. That's my review!

Pros
  • Easy to clean.
Cons
  • Not precise enough for serious work.

Bad case great tool

The description says "supplied with matching case". The body is the blue plastic version seen below the various images associated with the caliper. He's not fit. Along with these photos is one of the typical wooden crates I've received from other Fowler calipers. This is an adapted version. I don't know why two different cases are shown, but I have a blue one and it's poor quality. The caliper itself, as expected from Fowler products, is reliable and accurate with little play.

Pros
  • Industry and Science
Cons
  • Requires socket

Jaw ID 0.500 in measure

Accuracy confirmed by various pin gauges. It came in a plastic case because they don't make cases for wedding circles anymore, ok. It was a little stiff due to the Grease packaging when I first opened it with WD-40 or Blaster Penetrating Oil. What bothered me the most, and what I couldn't find in any part of the description or any other review, was how big the Jaws IDs are. The 24" caliper at my work has 7/16 IDs and I wanted it to be a regular half inch so I didn't have to use a calculator…

Pros
  • Vernier calipers
Cons
  • Newer model could have been selected
