Jim, For that price you can afford to throw it away if it doesn't work. Steve

Damn! I could use about 3 of those sets in different sizes too!

This economy really sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!

"A conservative who doesn't believe? in God simply doesn't pray; a godless liberal wants no one to pray. A conservative who doesn't like guns doesn't buy one; a liberal gun-hater wants to disarm us all. A gay conservative has sex his own way; a gay liberal requires us all to watch and accept his perversion and have it taught to children. A conservative who is offended by a radio show changes the station; an offended liberal wants it banned, prosecuted and persecuted." Bobby XD9

I couldn't pass this up. So, i bought two sizes.

I think someone else had gotten these and commented that they were unexpectedly good quality for the money, so I ordered the 0.24-0.4 set and the 0.4-0.7 set. On the web site both gage sets are pictured with a wooden box.

The 0.4-0.7 set arrived first. Although the box was red plastic, it had a metal latch and a real hinge on the back of the case, and the interior had well fitted gray foam. It came with a sheet of instructions. The gage worked and was repeatable. The dial indicator that came with it had MHC on the face. I prefer wooden cases, but the plastic case was of decent quality, so OK, I'm only minimally disappointed.

The 0.24-0.4 set arrived yesterday. A little disappointing. It arrived in a Harbor Freight quality red blow molded case with poorly fitting interior compartments. No instructions in the box. The anvils didn't quite have a good looking finish. The supplied wrench was a really sloppy fit on the tiny nut at the end. The dial indicator cosmetically looked identical to the one in the 0.4-07 set, but did not have MHC on the face of the dial. The measurements were repeatable. The poor case and the sloppy wrench detracted from what is probably an OK gage.

I checked the catalog number and that matches with what I ordered, and the web site shows the sets with wooden boxes. The wooden case pictured on the web site is almost bait and switch compared to what I got. Is this typical of Enco currently? I haven't bought much from them in the past few years.

I received the .2-.4 and .4-.7 ones together and both are of the same decent quality, in red plastic boxes marked MHC. The instructions don't apply to the small sizes and when I checked for better ones on the website the smaller one was listed as on backorder, so apparently you got a substitute.
