Re: Digital Calipers
Tristan, I think Don and I both understand that the odds of a team buying and regularly using vernier calipers is pretty darn slim....
Lately I've been using a cheap imported 6" dial caliper for general measuring. Either a dial or digital caliper will suffice for most of what an FRC team needs to measure.
On the cost/quality decision...there's a lot to it. You can buy several of the low cost calipers, for the price of one very high quality caliper. How many does your team need? how good is your team at taking care of delicate instruments? Are you planning to make stuff that needs very high precision?
