Caliper

Caliper compasses are very serviceable tools in a foundry doing general work of a superior order. No consideration of false economy should be tolerated that does not furnish ample means for obtaining correct measurements. These tools especially should be of a reliable character. They may now be obtained in an endless variety of styles and finish from the supply dealers throughout the country. See GAUGE.
