You're talking to the new owner of 1-2" range Slocomb micrometer.
Title of post is wrong. Can't change it. I was thinking ahead I guess.
Only one left to get is 2-3" micrometer. Might get a 3-4" for pistons.
At least I will be when it gets here.
Idea is to build a set for small engine project right now.
0-1" 1-2" and 2-3" set 3 micrometer set.
Harbor Freight ones are $39. Then you use 20% off coupon and they are about $32.
I noticed Made in the USA ones were going for about that on Ebay.
So I'm going for it.
Told a relative about building micrometer set and he is giving me a 1-2" micrometer
Which might turn out to be near a 100 years old!
Plus it was used by another relative.
A pattern maker in Philadelphia.
