Thank you I got a new job that requires me to know this skill this video was by far the best that I've seen. You answered all the questions that I had and explained everything in a way that was simple for me to understand thank you man
So in summary ten marks in tenths. Hundred marks in hundredths. Thousand marks are also in the thousandths . Thanks for the video it definitely helped.
This is an excellent teacher who prepared cogent well organized video. Kudos! I'd just add my 2¢ worth. I feel we all spend way too much time measuring and not enough time having fun on our projects. I Dremel carve small pieces, 4"x6" or so, and don't really care if I'm 1/1000 mm off. For you tech guys and gals, well we don't solve the same problems with calipers. lol ✌
Worked in the manufacturing. of precision plastic parts one of the old timers told me you can get any reading you want by how hard you squeeze the the calipers 😅
About to start a job where they use these. I can not thank you enough for this video. I will be calipering the shit out of some glass tubes come monday!
L have got to say this his the best video l.ve ever seen on you tube. Please mate could you do a video on how to read micrometer in inches and mm. Every video l have watch on here keep repeating what he just said you Don.t you show has it should be show and you are very easy to follow mate thank you for this video it the best l have ever seen on you tube thank mate
I recently bought that anytime dual caliper and I think it’s the best deal for a caliper you can find. It’s smooth, accurate, and the fit and finish is as good (maybe even a tad better) than a pair of Mitutoyo vernier calipers I bought at the same time.
Excellent, simple and to the point. I really don't know at what level if any is the rounding part even a point but I seem to remember that form a math point of view, all things being equal in other words 1.055 you go to the "even" number 1.060 not to 1.050 (6 being even and 5 odd). Again this is not from a machinist point of view or a practical POV. but from a mathematician POV. it is done because it make the calculation and math workings that might come later easier because it is easier to divide even numbers than odd numbers. All be it "a human hair" worth of number.
The precision required is to the 1/1000 of an inch, so three decimal places are significant and rounding would occur at the fourth (1/10,000) decimal point; e.g. 1.0554 would round to 1.055 while 1.0556 would round to 1.056.
Good video, however you didn’t show what your other knob on bottom of the dial does. Also the there is a 4th way to measure a ledge using the step on the backside of the blade surface. Would like to have seen you show us the unit that has dual needles one of which for the metric system.
I noticed a lot of videos do not show using the backside of the blade for some reason. Good video however. At first I thought he wasn’t going to go over plain ‘ol thousandths
My metric dial calipers spin the needle one whole turn per millimeter of jaw opening, and being graduated into 100 segments, provides an accuracy supposedly of 1/100 mm. That’s better than a thou. This sort of accuracy is contingent upon there being no micro inaccuracy in the toothed ratchet and pinion and of course that the overall range does correlate to a true measure. Seems pretty good to me, I tested mine on many drill bit shafts..not bad for about sixty bucks (50 Quid uk).
Thank You! I watch these videos and my head hurt. I didn't know how I'd make use of measurements using the thousandths terminology. I can't tell a salesperson I'm looking for a part that is whatever thousandths of an inch. You are the first one that said you just read it as a decimal. I'm sure most people already knew that but I didn't :)
A couple of things and I rarely am critical of any UA-camrs except political commentators. 1) You will be laughed out of a machine shop if you start refering to metric & imperial scales as "big & little numbers" 2) When reading a measurement to the right of a decimal; it should be read in thousanths of an inch .092 = ninety two thousanths, or 4.748 = 4 inches seven hundred forty-eight thousandths, or 3.5616 in the case of vernier calipers = 3 inches five thousand six hundred & sixteen ten thousandths or fifty-six hundred and sixteen tenths. 3) The fourth digit to the right of the decimal is ALWAYS referred to as tenths (informally) or ten-thousandths (formally). 4) A metric caliper is always referred to by its length in millimeters. 5) An imperial caliper is always referred to by its length in inches. 6) You should have included vernier and digital calipers of which both are more accurate than dial calipers. 7) I do, very much, like your imperial/metric dial calipers. I have not seen any like that before.
I would expect you to demonstrate the important step measuring function. If you are going to make a video on this subject this should be included. Do you know of this function?
I don't understand how you only write the tenths that you can see the line to the right of? To me, clearly that line is in the 3 tenths box, so the number would be 1.3... not 1.2...
Have to say, I don't quite agree with the caliper accuracy claim. My old man used nothing but gauge-less calipers for most of his life and he knows his way around a lathe or two. You can absolutely get the same accuracy if you know to how use it!
Highly underrated video. If someone was to ask me how to use dial calipers, I would direct them towards this video.
This is a great service to humanity! Your in depth explanation is more informative and helpful than any other video I've seen. Thank you!
This video is fantastic. I like your teaching style. Thanks, man!
Fantastic tutorial!
Very informative video. Loved how you belched in the video and said oh that was gross!
Best video I've seen on dial calipers! I've been lost but your explanation makes it very easy to understand. Thank you!
Amazing and detailed video. Appreciate it Brother. This video helps out tremendously
Thank you for your time and knowledge, great video.
Thank you I got a new job that requires me to know this skill this video was by far the best that I've seen. You answered all the questions that I had and explained everything in a way that was simple for me to understand thank you man
Thank you! Always wondered how to read a dial caliper. Now I know. Much obliged. :)
You are a very good teacher.

Amazing how this was so easy to understand, do not know my university professor overcomplicated this and make it weird and difficult to understand.
About to start a job where they use these. I can not thank you enough for this video. I will be calipering the shit out of some glass tubes come monday!
God bless in Jesus name🤣
Awesome video. I really liked the way you explained it.
L have got to say this his the best video l.ve ever seen on you tube. Please mate could you do a video on how to read micrometer in inches and mm. Every video l have watch on here keep repeating what he just said you Don.t you show has it should be show and you are very easy to follow mate thank you for this video it the best l have ever seen on you tube thank mate
This is an important useful video. Much appreciated.
Very, very good explanation/demo
Great video. Simple and explained well
Thanks!
Nice easy to understand explanation.

Great video! What is the brand and model of the caliper in the demo please. Thanks
You are an excellent teacher!!! Great tutorial! New subscriber!!😊
Brings back memories
Thanks a bunch, very very good demonstration on the dial cals. 👍👍👍👍

I was today year’s old when I learned that the annoying bottom stick is for depth measurements…
Nice overview.
bro thanks.. i been watching a few videos on this and this one helped out the most.. you did good teaching..
My metric dial calipers spin the needle one whole turn per millimeter of jaw opening, and being graduated into 100 segments, provides an accuracy supposedly of 1/100 mm. That’s better than a thou. This sort of accuracy is contingent upon there being no micro inaccuracy in the toothed ratchet and pinion and of course that the overall range does correlate to a true measure.

I have been taught! Thank you!
You're welcome! Glad it was helpfull

A couple of things and I rarely am critical of any UA-camrs except political commentators.
1) You will be laughed out of a machine shop if you start refering to metric & imperial scales as "big & little numbers"
2) When reading a measurement to the right of a decimal; it should be read in thousanths of an inch .092 = ninety two thousanths, or
4.748 = 4 inches seven hundred forty-eight thousandths, or 3.5616 in the case of vernier calipers = 3 inches five thousand six
hundred & sixteen ten thousandths or fifty-six hundred and sixteen tenths.
3) The fourth digit to the right of the decimal is ALWAYS referred to as tenths (informally) or ten-thousandths (formally).
4) A metric caliper is always referred to by its length in millimeters.
5) An imperial caliper is always referred to by its length in inches.
6) You should have included vernier and digital calipers of which both are more accurate than dial calipers.
7) I do, very much, like your imperial/metric dial calipers. I have not seen any like that before.
Thank you bro you let me understand easily
We usually play with+/- .0001. Indicators and ceramic gauge blocks are what I work with most of the time.
The very lesson I needed..thank you
I would expect you to demonstrate the important step measuring function. If you are going to make a video on this subject this should be included. Do you know of this function?
This is a great freaking Video!! Thank you!
Thank you man I appreciate it
Thank you
Outstanding thank you !
I salute good explanations!
excellent video
Excellent !!! Thank you
Good stuff- Thx!!
helpful 👌
I don't understand how you only write the tenths that you can see the line to the right of? To me, clearly that line is in the 3 tenths box, so the number would be 1.3... not 1.2...
👍 good but I would say when the dial is in between lines always go for a micrometer to get the exact fourth position .0000
Thankyou🌟
Thank you sir
You got it all wrong. You confused tens with 100's is like this. 1.231.3 reads like this, 1inch 2 hundred and 31 Townsend and 3 tens!
I always thought if you want to get to the bott0m of the hole you need to add material not subtract.
Calipers ain’t for precision you use mic. For accuracy
Duhhh!
Have to say, I don't quite agree with the caliper accuracy claim. My old man used nothing but gauge-less calipers for most of his life and he knows his way around a lathe or two. You can absolutely get the same accuracy if you know to how use it!
You are absolutely correct. A old machinest showed me once at his desk back when I was young and said same thing this young man said.
