To those of you who celebrate Easter, I want to wish you a blessed day. Enjoy time with family and friends and keep an eye out for that Easter bunny. I will probably take a couple of days off. See you when I get back.
If you cut and assemble it carefully this will be a fairly accurate caliper. It will not be as accurate as a commercial caliper but much of the time it will be accurate enough. Mine seems to be accurate to about 1/32".
The trick is to cut close and then sand the edges for a perfect fit. You want the slide to move smoothly but not be loose. The slide needs to stay parallel to the setpoint as it moves.
To lock the slide, use an eyelet screw with the tip flattened. Predrill a hole in the back of the slide and insert the eyelet screw until it touches the caliper body.
