[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1839608, member: 93138"] I use both, but I tend to grab the digital first. I think you're fooling yourself if you think that you can accurately gage to .0005" with calipers. They have .001" accuracy with .0005" resolution. I use the .0005 as a "round-off direction indicator" and don't expect that I'm actually measuring to that accuracy. I've found that by manipulating the zero button that I can use it as a limited function (+/- only) calculator too. [/QUOTE]
