I'm pleased with mine they're almost identical to the ones in the yearbook (buzzworkz article p78) I'm off to measure summit....

That's a good price, i'll stick to my old mitutoyo i can still read it so no need for digital yet.

I got a set last year. Didnt find them very acurate, especially measuring shims. Dont know if the set i got were faulty but the jaws seemed to flex on the rail meaning depending where in the jaws you measured you got very different readings.

my set don't have any lateral flex along the rail warren so maybe yours have a defect ? did you keep your receipt ?
