Default Well this is fun.....

I actually have an idea what those gizmos are...and going along with that when you start measuring for accuracy take into account just how long can I hold my hand perfectly still to get a "solid" reading? and what is the temperature of the room I am measuring in, how do I take into account thermal expansion, does it matter ? well yes and no, and yes and know.. depends on the kind of tool you use to split the hair and the type of surface finish I have achieved in my final process. Lots of variables to consider. ..as has been stated by others, that thousandth or two won't matter much if I point and shoot straight. I am always humbled by the fact that the Parker gun is such a Marvel of metal and wood, balance and artistry and has been for well over 125 years....I am still studying but I should get back to my chores..Happy Easter to All...Thanks & Best,Paul
