Re: Dial indicator ???
Just to add some more to the Starrett vs Mitutoyo debate, it seems like our company follows a general rule of thumb.
If it is a digital display (digital calipers, profilometers, etc) it will generally be a Mitutoyo.
If it is a mechanical or scale based display (dial calipers, dial indicators, micrometers, depth micrometers, etc) it will generally be a Starrett.
Each has their strong suit. Personally, I do not like the way a Mitutoyo micrometer feels and I don't care for the way the cylinder lock engages. Their digital calipers however are excellent and honestly, pretty affordable considering the quality you get.
One badly fit bearing can pay for a few nice measuring tools in a few short seconds.
