I get a very good condition Mitotoyu 0-1" 0.0001"mic with the slip clutch and
carbide faces at the gun show for $17.
I pointed out that it didn't zero,so he knocked it down from $20. Had the original
case and wrench.
A drop of Mouse Milk, reset the zero to dead on.

Nice deal Bill. I have one of Mitotoyu's caliper tools and like it. I wish I could find a deal like you found as I have some need of a 0-1" mic.
Mark 5:34 And He said to her (Jesus speaking), "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace and be healed of your affliction."
Keep an eye peeled at gun shows. Many folks have no idea about precision
tools. The seller asked me what I would use it for after the deal, and after looking
at him hard to decide if he was 'funnin' me, I briefly explained cast boolits, fitting to
barrels and throats, etc. He seemed interested and also slightly amazed. Still had
not much of a clue afterwards. Young guy, maybe 25 YO.

At 25, he probably thought it was a broken clamp.
Has it completely cooled off yet?

Magnificent!
The basic flaw with Science is man.
Just one question. How do you get mouse milk? Really tiny fingers?

From a metal can. It is a penetrating oil brand name.

You did good on that deal.
Keith,
I've had a fixed spindle carbide faced 0-1, 1-2, 2-3 set for 30 yrs, and they are
wonderful mics, but the opportunity to pick up the slip clutch version for $17 was
too good to pass up. Of course, I have developed a pretty decent 'feel' over the
decades, but the slip clutch should be extremely consistent.
