This Thing Saves Me So Much Time | Mitutoyo Digital Calipers Review

[@flawlessbutdysfunctional7787]

The first time I used this tool in my stem class I was amazed lol

[@o2bsam]

Coming from a old school shop I’ve used a multitude of measuring instruments. But few compare to a good pair of digital calipers. Thanks Joe

[@rudychavira5558]

Wow I got a great deal on this caliper, not using much but will have to learn some, didnt want to buy cheap. Nice video well done thanks

[@joannetactikos5722]

Hello, don't know if the website is still current. I use the Mitutoyo digital calipers but wonder if I can change to order in which the data is input to my PC from column to row?

[@ChessTurner]

Thank you so much for great review, good day and good luck

[@michaelbrock6222]

does this show fraction also

[@paulgush]

Does it do fractional inches? My much cheaper Gerneral calipers do, and I find that really handy. It rounds to the nearest 64th of an inch. Very handy for doing conversions as well as measuring

[@Neur0bit]

they do not. you will have to convert it.

[@EditioCastigata]

These days I'd buy calipers from Mahr or Vogel. About the same price as Mitutoyo, but nicer.

[@benoliver3763]

You got that right!

[@riversvic]

Absolute Digifantastic

[@notsafefortorque9060]

Is the version with the little wheel worth it ?

[@MrBoxershorts16]

no

[@mpdjr77]

REALLY helpful and informative video. Thanks. Grace and Peace

[@johndonlan5956]

Dial calipers, even though they're easy and quick to read, notoriously have problems with chips and machining debris clogging up the rack gear.... And not only giving an inaccurate measurement, but sometimes even causing a tooth to skip. The digital calipers are infinitely better in that regard!

[@robc8468]

Plus you can shift the origin on digital saving time doing extra math.

[@artomix7]

You're a damn good speaker

[@markjarman7819]

I use them in my wood shop there perfect😊

[@ThatFreelance]

Very informative.

[@a.z.c.681]

You should do technical reviewing for living!

[@clubmate12]

The video was great.. I just wish watching it didn't cost me 120£ 😆

[@Maikelwilke]

I still prefer the analog Mitutoyo's and I'm not even that old.Whay less need to interpret the reading. Maybe it's just that I've been using them as long as I can remember

[@cobraframebuilding]

I like analog better if I’m working only in inch or only in metric, but that’s kinda rare in my shop. Trapped in the middle. I need the inch/metric functionality.

[@Maikelwilke]

@@cobraframebuilding You have analog Mitutoyo's with metric and imperial scales. Mine does up to 7" in 1/128" increments. As I'm from europe and using metric, this comes in real handy sometimes if I cant get a good metric reading, then the inch scales are also there, no need for pressing a button

[@xl000]

you mean a Vernier where you have to find the two matching lines ? I like those ones two but it's more error prone. Not sure what you mean by interpret the reading

[@EditioCastigata]

4:34 Not "a lot of the rest of the world is in metric" -- all countries except the US are. ;-)

[@walterwilliams268]

Most are fake fyi.......

[@johnathanmcbride1683]

I still prefer micrometers- much more accurate, and the math isn't that hard. Basically calipers are just a fancy steel rule. 😂😂😂

[@cobraframebuilding]

I agree that micrometers are more accurate, but they're slow and you need six to cover this same size range. I can reliably measure +/- .002" with this and that is almost always good enough for what I do, which is why this is the most *helpful* measurement tool, not the absolute most accurate if time and convenience aren't a consideration. This video is for folks who don't have much experience with precision measuring to help them get perspective about which measurement tools they really need.
