What Did You Buy Today?

[ChazzC]

No such thing as too many micrometers...

Then why hasn’t anyone said they want to buy the set I’m selling??

There is a limit on too many, and I've passed that point

Here’s the mail call haul.



A dual rounded anvil mic, as well as another 1/2” mic. This one is tailored for being a tube mic.

Additionally another catalog came in as well. It has some unique things in it too. A nice surprise.

There does come a time when you may have a sufficient number. I have one set of Staretts that go from 1" to 3", a second set that goes from 1" to 6" and a third that goes from 1" to 12". In addition, I have a set of 1" to 4" Blackhawks I use in the field and an individual 1" Starrett at almost every machine. I don't think I need any more and am not currently in the market for any.

In the Archive collection, theres about 140 or so larger than the 1"-2" sizes, and around 180 mics in the 0"-1" size. Its been a long while since an actual count has been made.

Oh...you mean what we can actually use...what we need?

I didn't think that factored into the assessment of 'enough' for the members of this forum.

Wait, what? Need?? Actually use??? Since when were these a requirement for obtaining tools?
