Dissatisfied with sizing

I was dissatisfied with this. I bought 2 of them right away. Another use and another just to have. After only 3 months of use, the crystal and tourniquet fell off immediately. So I got the 2nd one out. Low and here he did the same. But now I have a turn signal, another cheaper brand, for 3 years and in perfect condition.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • I will add later

Decent quality for the price

I have not used this dial indicator much, but my limited experience with it is positive. I'm a hobby machinist and I don't need Starrett quality (or Starrett price). This is a tool that I will only use occasionally, not daily, for years to come. So I am happy with this tool so far. (I will provide a long term update in the future.)

Pros
  • Turn signals and accessories
Cons
  • Dull packaging

Great gauge at an even better price

For what you pay for there is no better gauge. There is a slight difference in fit and finish from much more expensive brands like Starter or Brown and Sharpe, but this indicator works great. I use mine almost every day in my job as a machinist. The black dial with white lettering is very legible and I had no issues with accuracy.

Pros
  • Gauges
Cons
  • Non automatic
