I just looked one up, it’s less than 20€, 0,02mm of precision. There are just 4 markings between 1mm and the next.
So instead of 9 markings, each marking adding 0,01mm, you just add 0,02mm. Doesn’t sound complicated at all.
I haven’t found an analog one, but a digital one with 0,01mm of precision costs 30€. Maybe an analog one costs 50€.
So if adding 0,02 is too complicated, you can just buy a 0,01 one for 30€ more. Which is the price of a pizza for a tool that will last years.
Anything more precise than 0,01. You probably have a lot of experience using a caliper. Whatever method it uses to display that precision is gonna be second nature.
Yes, but by recording your measurements as being precise to the neareat 1/5th you’re saying they’re precise to the nearest 1/10 if you record it with decimals unless you add a qualifying statement.
Is there anyone in this world needs a caliper of precision between 1cm and 1mm that can’t afford a 1mm of precision caliper?
No, but between 0.1mm and 0.10mm is absolutely a thing.
And that is shown by the markings.
