My dial indicator is measured in metric (millimeter ) can I get explanation in millimeter instead of inches.

[@DrivelineMaster]

I don't have one for a video but I just looked it up. Look at the center of your dial indicator. it will tell you how much each line measures. such as it's most likely that each line measures 0.01mm or 1/100th of a millimeter. So when the dial reads on the 10 your really reading 0.10mm or 1/10th of a millimeter. If your dial reads up to 10mm then each revolution would measure 1.00 or 1 millimeter. Hope this helps.

It's not dirt it's the quality of the picture. It is an old picture and I hesitated on replacing it. Looks like my critics have spoken and I need to fix it.

Isn’t it supposed to be thousandths of an inch not thousands of an inch?

[@DrivelineMaster]

You are so correct. The caption text is incorrect 7 times. It's easy to fix the captions and I will do that right now. Thansk

What a dry, monotone voice.....I'll use this video to fall asleep at night.

Glad I could help. That was done right after I had vocal cord surgery. Sorry.
