How Do I Read A Dial Caliper ? ? ?

[SCHOONER]

Hi Rev

Thanks for your clear explaination on dial caliper readings.
I understood it all.

Now, what I'd like to do is get an inside micrometer so I can do the readings myself.

The inside of my cylinders are very smooth, as far as any cracks I don't know about that

Think I can locate 'em myself

Rev you know in this world lots of people like to get-over on others who don't know too much about rebuilding an engine (ME)

So I'd like to check the bore myself and see if the machine shop is trying to get over on me.

What do you think

Thanks Rev
GOD bless and Happy New Yr.
