G'day all,
Today I needed to measure the OD of my rifle barrel, so I pulled out my trusty 25-50 Mitutoyo mic. Upon turning the thimble I had discovered it had become considerably hard to turn, and even when turning it feels real lumpy in the thread. No worries, I'll just back off the split nut, for tightening the threads, and put a drop of tri flow in them. Still no cigar. It's not the spindle brake either.
Does anybody have much experience with these and have any idea what has gone wrong?
The 50-75 and 75-100 are the same. With the 100 being the best of them all. I think that one is just the nut. They are all mitutoyo.
