I bought this caliper because it has both the SAE scale and the metric scale. My wood and woodworking tools are sized in fractions of an inch, 1/2", 1/4", 1/16" etc. so I use that scale a lot. Sometimes I use metric as well, but I rarely have any use for measurements in 1/100" or 1/1000 inch, so dial calipers and calipers with decimal inches are not useful to me.I almost didn't buy this because the thumb "wheel" is not a wheel. It is just a handle to put your thumb against to move the slide. Having a wheel makes it much easier to adjust a caliper. But now that I have it, I find that the slide moves smoothly enough that a wheel is not needed. It works fine like it is.The zero on my caliper is fine, as you can see in the photo. Some reviewers have complained that the zero is off, but mine is OK. I use this for woodworking, and I rarely have to measure anything to less than 1/64", so the accuracy of this caliper is actually overkill for my purposes. Your mileage may vary.At first I had a bit of trouble figuring out how to read the vernier because the markings on the main scale are 1/16" and the markings on the vernier are 1/128". Figuring out an intuitive way of seeing the in-between sizes in 1/32" and 1/64" was not obvious to me. I finally came up with the method shown in the photo.Here is how I do it.Count the marks on the main scale that lie before the zero mark. Then if the vernier lands on the mark labeled "4", multiply the count by 2 and add 1. That gives the number of 1/32" it is showing. If the vernier lands on mark number 2 or mark number 6, multiply the count by 4 and add 1 or 3. That gives how many 1/64" the measurement is.If the vernier lands on marks 1, 3, 5, or 7 multiply the count by 8 and add the appropriate number to get the number of 1/128". I rarely measure anything to less than 1/64" so this is not very relevant to my case.Reading the metric side is easier since that is simply a decimal number, although it only reads to .05 mm, not .01 mm, so there is a slight curve ball there.The caliper has a heavy, solid feel, and so far I am enjoying using it. I can just pick it up and measure something without messing with dead batteries and all that.

needed a shop Vernier, Tool is nicely made and slides smooth, unfortunately I can only give it a 3 Star since the most important part for a measurement tool is accuracy and since zero is off by about 0.002-3" / 0.05-0.08 mm I will just use for not critical tasks.Update:since i wrote the review customer service reached out to me and wanted to make it right, they sent me a replacement product and i evaluated it. This one is much closer to zero but still a little off, where you can see when you close the caliper that the zero lines are not exactly lining up, I would not have complained about this unit but looked at it so much closer then I would have other wise. Again great product but there is a small issue with the lot they are currently shipping. Customer service is absolutely on it and i can recommend using the product if it is not working for you they will fix it.
