Its a reasonable caliper. Its good to hundredths of an inch for metalwork and 1/64ths for woodworking. My only issue is the needle on mine was bent about the width of the needle blade itself between the fractional and decimal scales .. which means I have to rezero it for changing scales. If actual thousandths was wanted, the company should swap the locations of the fractional and decimal scales (which would be a reasonable thing to do regardless, considering the decimal scale has greater accuracy than the fractional 1/64ths). Swapping the scale locations would give the caliper accuracy to .001 instead of a mere .01(5). Still, not bad for the price.
I really like the fractional measuring readings on this caliper. It is much easier to deal with than my old one because of the accuracy and size of the display for the reading. I would recommend it to anyone dimensioning lumber. It is well made and should last a long time.
