- In this episode of shop talk I go over telescope gages and how I use them. I share my techniques on how I pull them from a bore, hold them for measuring, and them using a mic over them.
Thanks a ton Adam. I've never had good luck with my grandfather's set of telescope guages but I just went out to my shop and got 6 consistent reading with them using your method. Thanks a bunch.
Your humble nature makes you a much better teacher. Thanks for showing the techniques you use.
I've worked in computing 30 years and over that time people comment on how smart you must be to work with computers. Engineering like this to me is clever guys. Building a lot of the stuff over time 'without' computers and just plain talent is smart. Much respect to you guys who can do this kind of work. My grandfather was a machinist and I really regret not learning from him before he passed.
Have been using mics, bore gauges and other precision measurement tools and have come to understand that this is as much an art as a science
Hi Adam. You covered a bunch of very small details that will all make a difference in the end. This instrument is certainly an acquired feel. They can be very accurate. Personally, I like the single sided models. One thing I'd like to contribute is to always keep the rigid barrel down towards the ways of the machine. This keeps the weight of the instrument from influencing the measurement it delivers. Good video. Thumbs up.
One of the first videos of you using this tool I noticed how deliberate that motion was, repeatable & accurate
These are my favorite episodes. I've imitated your technique for a while, nice to hear it laid out in words.
Straight out of machining school and into a job shop/electric motor repair shop, this really helps me. I struggled with telescoping gauges for a bit, but this video really cleared it up. I'm getting consistent readings now. Thanks!
Great video as always. Your method was taught to me in High School and has proven accurate for over 37 years. Great explanation and accurate to boot. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a bunch Adam, watch your channel all the time. Really good information on telescope gauges. Look forward to see more of your shop talk on other instruments. Keep up the good work, Brent.
Thanks Adam. I remember back to some of your first videos showing you using the telescoping gauges. I adopted your technique and it's been very helpful in getting consistent readings.
I just like to say thank you for the videos you put out and some of the other guys on UA-cam as well. I'm self taught so that obviously means I didn't have anybody show me how to use some of these tools and the best thing about these modern times as I can get info from guys like you!
Thanks Adam, there's no substitute for the kind of experience and communication skills that you have. I can see your confidence affecting a whole bunch of us amateurs that watch every week.
Thank you Adam, very informative and easy to follow. I'm slowly working my way through all your videos and am learning a lot from them - I feel like I'm doing an apprenticeship with you!

Hi Adam,
I started using your technique after watching your video a few months back and I like it.Been doing it your way ever since.
I noted how you did the telescoping gage when I first started watching you. I followed your example, but your explanation today cleared up some things I didn't see. Thank you.
Thanks Adam for the informative video. I struggled on using the telescoping gauge, but your video opened a whole new perspective. Thanks Jason R.
Thanks for posting this; your technique makes the most sense to me, and yields accurate and consistent measurements for me. I was having a hard time checking the bore of an 1986 Chrysler 2.2L turbo which I'm rebuilding.
