About 20 years ago I bought a second hand Mitutoyo 6" dial caliper, and I loved it!
After 7 years I sent it out to be reconditioned.

Now it was beginning to get tired again, but there's no shame in that.

Today I bought a new set. For $60!

A guy at work happened into an eBay deal on new and used tools and is selling them
at the shop. I'm happy with the 40% discount, and even though you need to check the
ZERO everytime on the old one, I now have a better caliper to use at home as well.

Ooooh, pretty! And 40% off ain't a bad deal.

Have fun with it, Rick. (which I know you will :D)

Best regards,
