I met them last year at Alexandra and they had some convincing promotions. So I went home with the digital dept gauge see http://www.machine-dro.co.uk/index.php?target=products&product_id=160 Now you, well I do, rarely need a dept gauge but . This one has a hook at the business end. Ever tried to measure up the thickness of a ring held in the 3-jaw ? Simply hook the business end of the gauge behind the ring and bring up the foot against the face. Scroll down the page to the drawing with L2 on it and it will be instant clear what I mean. Can tell you that this one lives next to the normal calliper and sees a lot of use. The next tempting item was the digital angle gauge. See http://www.machine-dro.co.uk/index.php?target=products&product_id=7 Primarily intended for use on woodworking machines it to finds its use in the ME shop. setting the angle plate on the mill is one of the uses which springs to mind. used it also in combination with the bending machine. I have no connection with the firm whatsoever, just a satisfied costumer. But a stop at their stand at Alexandra is time well spend. Just one warning keep an eye on your credit card or it will end up a lot thinner. Regards and seasons greetings to you all.
