Anyone brought any calipers lately? I see that the digital calipers here in the shop are around twenty quid, yet I have brought some ordinary ones in Clas Ohlson for a fiver, anyone looking for some and don't want to spend out a lot of money, check them out they even come in a hard case

I got mine from Lidl a few months back, digital ones in a hard case for under a tenner, work really well, and well made too, Rob.
