It's amazing that they put a blind man to present this to us. Kudos to them.

i think it would be great if camera can focus on the micrometer so that we can see it clearly how it works.. TQ~

I have been using these for years, and in my line of work I have to be perfect. When doing the headspace on a firearm I am going to .001 as I only have at a max 3 thousandths of and inch between a firearm being safe and not safe.

People lives are on the line when I have to measure something to that level of accuracy. I also never rely on just the digital readout as they have been known to drift or not read correctly and possible you could hit the reset or origin button resetting it back to zero making it incorrect, always double check with the readings on the handle.

Store your micrometer(s) in their case(s) they come with when not in use, put them back in and close the cover and even put them back in the paper sleeve to insure if dropped they don’t fall out. I always keep a tight grip on mine when in use and so far they have not ever been dropped, not sure if I could ever trust them again if that ever to happen, someone’s life is worth more than 300.00 and would be better to replace them.

The video was very easy to understand.

Are you for real? The micrometer has 4 buttons and you mention one. This is a "how to video"? It's more like a "we want to sell you a stand" video.

Why are you not paying attention to what you are doing?

Let me check one specific thing about proper measurement by vernier calipers.
Some time ago I met opinion, that when you use external jaws for measuring some objects (especially objects that have just very small contact points with jaws, for example some round-shaped details) - you must place such object in the central part of jaws, not in the bottom part, where jaws have milled out edges. This is supposedly important for the most precise measurement.
I don't remember where I found this but remembered. Later I tried to find reconfirmation of this opinion: is it really true. But in the manuals and in yourube videos no specific confirmation I couldn't find. Some really put objects in the center of jaws with no explanations or remarks why. Other put object just in between the bottom ends of jaws.
Could you please clarify?

Pretty technical words for when it heats up it goes out

Suggestions:
Great camera prescience....but

1.) Slow down when talking
2.) Focus camera on micrometer
3.) Focus on micrometer as you talk and explain what your doing.

Individuals don’t care as much if what your saying is “perfectly” read as much as if they get education from the video...Being relaxed and natural and just “talking” it through would be more productive-(just my opinion). {even if you stumbled due to being nervous, if this would be the case}, would be great!
I realize the pay Check comes from Mitutoyo ...but maybe if they see the feed back they will let you re-do!!!

don'
t look at the camera look at micrometer

[kintanputrinabila]

its better if the sound loudly and the camera make close up to the micrometer thank you

[dakrinacrochet]

1)Is this the actual method on how to measure using a micrometer?
2)Using only the small knob until it is ticking?
3)What if I zero the datum and use the thumble first until it is tighten after that I use the small knob? Is my measurement valid?
4) I don't find any reference on Mitutoyo's manual that I should use the small knob. Thus, people are blaming the method and the measurement result seems to be dubious.
5)Do you reply the comment? How can i have the answer?

How do you measure paper? If I close the digital micrometer fully I get a measurement, let's say 0.079 for example; but if I loosen the micrometer somewhat, the paper is still held firmly by it and the measurement is now perhaps 0.095. So I measure by closing the micrometer and then backing it off to a point where the paper will slide just slightly with difficulty within the teeth of the micrometer. I take that as the measurement. Is that methodology correct? If not what is the correct method? Thanks very much, Mark

Only one problem with the paper method to clean a mic, it only works on a 0-1 mic its usless for all mic's as they don't closed down so why do companies countinue to do this? It dosen't work for my 1-2 mic or my 2-3 mic or any other mic's so stop this method and show one that works for all micorometers no matter what size.

[sunillamichhane]

could have focused on the instrument. Don't waste your time!
