Best part? Only $45, shipped.
Yeah, old stuff. I have an old US made dial caliper, and a newer chinese made one. While the cheaper one is good, it doesn't compare to the 50-year-old US made one. Something about that silky smooth feel that the chinese one just doesn't have. It's comparable to the old Mitutoyo, but just not quite the same as old school.
I just looked at the picture above, and while it doesn't seem to look quite as bad as the picture shows, I can't have that old wooden block looking like that. I'll sand and oil it.

Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts
