WTB - Telescopic gauge
Looking for a quality telescopic gauge to replace the missing size in the Mitutoyo set my FIL gave me.
I’m missing the “B” size - 3/4”-1-1/4” or 19-32mm
I’d consider buying a whole (quality) set at a decent price but can’t justify a brand new set of Mitutoyo/Starrett etc.
Let me know if you’ve got anything or have any likely leads.

I did have a second Lufkin set, but something in my head tells me I need to check because I may have already sold them. Ill report back next week.

you can buy individual gauges form Mitutoyo, MTI Qualos are the agents over there in Melbourne. If the rest of your set is good i would just replace the missing one. I have Mitutoyo, Starrett and cheap import bore gauges, and have found Mitutoyo to be orders of magnitude better than the others, even Starrett.

Thanks Snapa - that’s probably what I’ll end up doing if nothing surfaces here.
I’ve always found the Mitutoyo ones nice to use, but only have cheap imports to compare them to (which are only marginally better than nothing!!)
