vernier caliper gage in inch with resolution of 0.001 in

The slide caliper is a measuring instrument with a scale and a cursor that drift into it. It was designed to take external linear dimensions, by contact between two opposing sides. With less accuracy, it also measures internal dimensions, depths, bumps, among other.

The scale of this simulator is graduated in inch and it´s divided into tenths and quarter. The vernier scale divides the quartes in by twenty-five, marking the 0.001in.
