This may be more appropriate for the orange forum, but...


I went out today to buy a vernier caliper to measure several aspects of the sleeve, shaft and draw. I found some very nice pieces, but I could not for the life of me find anything in METRIC! that had anything close to a level of acceptable PRECISION!

I hate this backwards country at times :evil:

I'm a bit disappointed with everyone here. I've been stuck in the lab all day running a 14 hour assay that requires my attention every 7 minutes. In my "down time" I've been coming over to the forums only to find a handful of posts and a KB that thinks his wife is more important than a Revo Party (Live another day...good call :lol: ). I have a ways to go and no BBQ in store (national holiday), so cheer me up! :mrgreen:
