Ebay Micrometer

Post by refinery mike »

I should have know when the price was sooooo low and no one else was bidding. I bought a Brown and Sharpe Digit-Mike 25-50 mm for just 20 bucks. It looked like new and came in a wooden box, only problem was it didn't work, missing pieces. After two attempts and about an hour the new tiny parts are made. And it works plus or minus a couple thousands of a mm. WAHOOOOOOO this time i thwarted the bottom dwellers that chump me on EBAY. I love the Digit-Mike micrometers. I would love to see a breakdown on how they work. And the Metric one works different than the english one. Howbeit they look identicle.
