Lesson 2/Learning Event 2
The transfer feature of the caliper is illustrated in Figure 29. Note that
the diameter being measured is recessed and the setting cannot be
transferred to a scale directly because the legs must be collapsed to get
them out of the work. The setting must be reproduced after the calipers are
removed.

inside spring caliper.
