For people that don't know this is not how you use Calipers
Wow! That's a creative way to use a caliper.
That's why teaching children about metrology basics is so important.

Next time, chose a smarter client.
They don't exist.
Bold claim, also very true
please close and reverse the tool, then grip it tightly and drive it into the skull of the complaining customer
Showed this pic to my co workers (steelworkers/blacksmiths) and only the old guys knew what was funny about the pic... Gen z think that calipers are toy guns.....
I feel like a boomer/millenial trapped in a young body when I read stuff like this 😭
I dunno, a lot of gen z and millennials probably use them when fabricating parts for things that you can't get them for. I know I do for my printer.
Well.. im an old millennial and know what it is and how to use it properly...
I use calipers frequently and didn't realize it was upsidedown until reading this.
I thought it was a joke about clients always sending shitty low resolution pictures where you can't actually verify their claim.
How do gen z-ers measure distances finely, then?
Realistically, how many people need calipers in their life? The vast majority never used one because a ruler or tape is enough for pretty much anything in a house.
