I am away with work at the moment but have a day off so have been posting some photos I took just before I left.
One of the items which arrived from Shipito just before I left was two Cary micrometers. I have been acquiring (?collecting) high end precision measuring gear for some time especially micrometers. Not sure if anyone is actually interested in this stuff so will keep this short.
Cary is a Swiss brand that was acquired by Tesa which was then swallowed by Hexagon metrology. The Cary micrometers are probably some of the nicest micrometers ever made and when new cost about $3000 each. Interestingly all the ones I have previously seen are metric which is what you would expect for a swiss micrometer but these two are imperial with resolution of 0.00005". Will need a clean when I get home and can post more then. Have a number of other micrometres/comparators which can post if anyone is interested.
For the ultimate in comparators check out Mikrokator's http://ift.tt/1vQScNi
Can post some pictures of mine later if anyone would like.
To finish have included some random shots of my Cussons floating micrometer and Pratt and Whitney standard measuring machine
