I may be wrong but I think Penno was making a serious suggestion. If you have difficulty reading metric rules, either because it is dark or bad light then his suggestion is ideal IMO. As for calipers etc., being an ex RAF technician, there are loads of things around in engineering that would do what you want them to do. Trouble is they would take so long to use, if space is restricted you may not get them in and after a while they would get so dirty you wouldn't be able to read them.So that's it, just a bunch of wise cracks?
Anyway, thanks, real helpful![]()
Like any job experience will teach you the ways that best suit YOU. Without sounding disrespectful, if you are having difficulty seeing the metric graduations on a tape, you may really actually need your eyes testing again. I had mine done before christmas and things are now soooo much clearer it is unbelievable!
