    Я тоже дошел до этой идеи, но раньше на полгода. Добавлю что не обязательно точно соблюдать размеры площадок на линейке, программа в считывающей головке сама умеет подстраиваться под размер площадок, я даже делал, для эксперимента, линейку у которой площадки в два раза шире (хотел линейку на поперечную подачу токарного станка приделать, что бы показывала размер на диаметр), но показания не изменились и считалась длина так-же как и с обычной ширины площадками. Для работы нужны только "Т"-площадки. Линейку сверху защитил каптоновой лентой.
    I also came to this idea, but earlier for six months. I will add that it is not necessary to accurately observe the dimensions of the pads on the ruler, the program in the reading head itself is able to adjust to the size of the pads, I even made, for the experiment, the ruler whose pads are twice as wide (I wanted to attach a ruler to the transverse feed of the lathe to show size per diameter), but the readings did not change and the length was considered in the same way as with the usual width of the pads. Only "T" -sites are needed for work. He protected the ruler from above with Kapton tape.

      i had tried a year ago to decrypt the code after 3 attempts I got the right results +0.01 -0.01 if the board gaps do not fit the tolerance is 3mm or more Only a high quality pcb manufacturer can produce the printed circuit boards

      @@jimi1233 The board itself, the one in the caliper, of course must be made very accurately. Accuracy depends on it.
      But the requirements for the accuracy of the ruler are much lower.
      I made a ruler tape on a simple CNC milling machine, I simply engraved with a milling cutter without even taking into account the width between the platforms. And everything works exactly.
      In the descriptions for this video there is a .cdr file, there is a drawn ruler that I milled.

      Сама плата, та что в штангенциркуле, естественно должна быть выполненна очень точно. От нее и зависит точность.
      Но требования к точности линейки гораздо ниже.
      Я ленту линейки делал на простом фрезерном станке CNC, просто гравировал фрезой даже не учитывая ширину между площадками. И всё работает точно.
      В описаниях к этому видео есть файл .cdr, там отрисована линейка которую я фрезеровал.

    I have recently made myself a DRO using digital calipers and I have had some of your extensions made - thanks 🙂
    Do you have any advice on how to prevent interference from my mill's motor being switched etc. from causing the calipers to jump in their readings?

      @@jimi1233 Hi, The 0,01 accurate calipers continue the count until 999,99 mm then to 0, so it's easy to code. One question: in your video, between 09:11 and 09:14 you don't show how you 'glue' them together, I think I need to solder and verify the exact distance between 2 pieces? ALmost done here, will share the video. Combined with a rotary encoder, I have accuracy up to 0,0001 mm (0,1 micron)

    Nice thing!
    I would too like to maximize my calipers but I'm not sure about the dimensions of the grid. Can you post the dimensions? because I only seen three of them, 7.8, 2.3 and 0.3mm. 2.3x2 for the widest part of the T? And how about the height of it.
    Thank you very much!

    Nice idea, but thumbs down for missing narration and that annoying music. Did you check the exact spacing of the pads on the ordered PCBs? Looks like you measured just a single pad and put that in your file. That will add up the error with every following pad. The long version could be several millimetres off if full extended.
