Calipers
Regardless of their style, size and shape, all calipers (digital, dial and vernier) perform the same kind of job; they measure, check, transfer, or compare the dimensions of raw materials and parts, as well as the size of the slots, grooves, and holes that you make in those parts and materials. We have a caliper sitting at the front counter of Tools Plus, since it is a handy, accurate tool that can be used for a multitude of tasks. Calipers have a pair of outside measuring jaws for part lengths and thicknesses, a pair of inside-measuring jaws for slot width or hole diameter, and a depth rod for the depth of holes and grooves.
