Shars brand, china made. But they work fine. http://www.shars.com/products/measuring/caliper/6-dual-reading-inch-metric-dial-caliper One thing I learned from experience - if you drop them and the pinion jumps a tooth on the rack, you aren't going to be able to get both needles pointing at zero again by disengaging and re-engaging the pinion. It seems like it can go together a thousand ways and only one way has both needles aligned. I took off the bezel, carefully popped off both needles, and pressed them back on in the proper orientation. -- John Kasunich [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
