Clean the object and make sure that there is no grease, dust or grime that can affect the results of the measurement.
Loosen the screw of the caliper, if there is a locking screw on the device, to start your measurements. Then, close the jaws of the caliper to make sure that these faces to zero before making measurements to make sure that you get a precise reading. Ensuring that the reading is zero is important because if you do not do this, you will need to correct the results for the zero error.
Take the object and place it in between the jaws of the caliper. Slide one of the jaws against the item that needs to be measured. The larger jaws should be used to measure the distance across the object while the smaller jaws are used to fit inside an opening of an object.
Take note that the smaller jaws can be pushed outwards to measure the inside of an opening. Once the jaws are in position, tighten the screw or locking screw to save the measurements.
Read the measurements on the main scale first. Read the number where it lines with the zero of the Vernier scale. The main scale provides the whole number along with a decimal. This is read just like a ruler is read, measuring to the zero mark on the Vernier scale.
If the zero on the Vernier scale lines up with the 3-inch mark of the main scale then the measurement is 3 inches. If the zero on the sliding scale lines past 3 inches about six tenth-inch marks then the measurement is 3.
Use the smaller value if the result is found between two lines. Do not estimate. Locate the first mark on the Vernier scale that lines up with any line on the main scale. This will tell you the value of any additional digits. If the 9 on the Vernier scale aligns with a line found on the main scale and the main scale represent 0.
Add the main scale results and the Vernier scale results to get the final answer. The correct units for each result should be used to get a correct result. A Vernier caliper should be kept clean and free from any debris which could affect its precise reading. So after making any measurements, wipe the jaws clean as well.
Use a clean cloth to wipe it or you can use paint thinner to remove any paint residue. Vernier calipers usually come with a storage case; always keep the caliper inside this case to make sure that this is safe and secure.
Digital calipers are also available to use. For certain things though, they can have their place. But if you try to stuff too much into your toolbox, or have too much random things in there, it becomes difficult to find things. The ideal situation for example, might be a toolbox of your primary items, containing all your most used items.
If you need to do something outside of the garage, what would you bring with you so you had everything you needed? But one could easily imagine this approach extended to several stands if required, for various categories of tools.
For example, a stand for various kinds of hammers, or one for various screwdrivers. At the end of the day, I really love his solution. That way you can take your tools around your workshop more easily. I personally feel that this is largely determined by the air quality and environmental conditions of your workshop, but also the safety concerns as well.
While your power tools will likely be fine either way, I tend to feel that power tools that are stored in their original containers or other container system will fair better long-term than the exposed one. It will be more protected from the elements, and will likely be better maintained as a result. If you happen to have a super clean workshop with great air quality, vacuum connected saws, and reasonable climate control, you might be able to get away with leaving many tools completely out in the open.
For me, my go-to option would be to keep these kinds of power tools in their original boxes, and store them on a shelf or cabinet for easy access and visibility. You could store them in a variety of configurations on shelves… stacked vertically, or horizontally side-by-side.
Your workshop is like an artists studio, and how you want it organized can be a very personal thing. No two artists are going to organize their studio the exact same way, and the same goes for workshops and garages.
You need to design it based around your unique needs and work habits. No matter how big or small your workshop is, you can always make it more efficient with a few little tricks. Hopefully this has given you some useful ideas to consider for your own workshop or garage. What Will I Learn? Are there certain tools that should be protected rather than left out in the open? Are there certain tools that should be stored in boxes or drawers?
