New From Lee Valley

[Jim Koepke]

The notification about this new tool came during the time of the free shipping:

303868

It is kind of small, 3", the metal is about 20 ga. and seems a touch thin.

Looks to be a tool that has a place in my shop.

As the tips wear it will need calibration. How is thes accomplished?

[George Bokros]

I have something similar that was my father-in-laws. I do not think you will see much wear on the tips.

[Daniel Rode]

I don't have any need for it but I want one anyway. Something about the design borders on steampunk.

Now if only the other side was Metric, I'd get one.

[Brian Ashton]

That was my thoughts on it. With most of the world metric I'm surprised they don't offer that option. I grew up with imperial and used it almost exclusively for the first 40 years but now I rarely use it as everywhere I've been (which it looks like there's another on the horizon) living since is metric. I find myself actually passing of imperial tools as the mental back n forth conversions are more a pain.

Old ones are more like 1/16" thick.
