    Recomend me a good micrometer

    Best Micrometer aka "Mike" Hi, My advise is to get the best "Mike" for the dollar, I have a set of Starrett "Mikes", 0 - 1", 1" - 2" and 2" - 3"... All have the ratchet thimble on the end of the "Mike", this allows you to achieve a consistent feel / reading, Gage Rod "Master" for calibration...
