should be able to screw it?(if you will excuse the phrase) Todgy!
The customer should no have get a degree in screwology in
order to purchase a simple thing like a srew should they?
There should be only one standard for screws not twenty shades
of grey? And that standard should be ADEQUATE imo!
Donkeyman! 😇😇😇

It could have mutated here in the UK.
What state would we be in if other Countries went after the UK.

For example if I want to buy a micrometer then I could buy a Mitutoyo thing beast, a make that is pretty much the dogs danglies or an el-cheepo thing for under a tenner.
If I then put my name on it while they both look similar --- well the rest is obvious.
Both will have been manufactured to my spec, both might say made in Japan, but they will be very different after a very short time.
Actually I'd not bother with a mike' these days. I've got a digital caliper that cost me a fiver on eBay. It's very high quality because it complies with all my requirements and perhaps remarkably it's accurate to ± 2 last digit! - For a fiver!

But I can see your point about the Digital Vernier, why have six Micrometers when you can have one accurate vernier.....
