By that; I mean, why do all these videos I see show people using measuring wires or dedicated pointed anvils for finding the ID of the thread. I'm talking about home-gamers when I see this and not talking about guys making aircraft parts for Boeing or JPL.
Do my Mitutoyo thread gauges show me my threads are deep enough plus OD readings with normal layout tool mics not get the job done? Do I need to invest in a dedicated screw-thread micrometer with different thread-form anvils? It seems like overkill to a home gamer. I haven't done much threading yet it just seems like 60 degree threads are habitually being over-complicated when I look at what's being touted. Am I missing something?
I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Thanks folks.
