Hi, just wandering what everybodys opinions are of the digital micrometers versus verneers, specifically od. Micrometers. I will be purchasing some new tools soon for my job, im looking at the friction thimble 0-1, 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4's. I havent personally used these digital ones and have only used verneers, are they accurate? How do they hold up to everyday use? I need accuracy, our shop is strictly tool and die work with some of our parts being +/-.0002", most parts being machined/heat treated/ground/hard turned/edm'd. For my job im not required to buy and bigger than a 0-1" but like most shops the "community" tools are garbage junk, and my raises depend on my work being precise as we have tests making more difficult parts as the pay scale progresses.
