Oh Thy Vernier

As far as neat measuring devices go, this is the neatest.

The Vernier Caliper never ceases to amaze me.
While it looks so utilitarian the simple yet oh-so precise technology behind it is astounding. The ability to measure to a hundreth of a millimeter is crazy not to mention the fact it can measure distances 4 times at once.

The Vernier has the ability to measure depth, external and internal diameter as well as flat surfaces is simply incredible.

There is not much to talk about other than the fact it has amazing precision and so many uses. But regardless this is by far the greatest measuring device I am yet to come across.
