- This is reading the 1/1000" scale which is the most common. Hopefully this helps! I have another video showing how to read the top scale (1/128") here: • How to read Vernier Ca...

THANK YOU!!! 11 min video>1hr lecture by engineering professor.
An excellent tutorial. Years of wondering just what it all means now comes to an end. Thank you!
Thank you for the refresher course. Yours was the first video on this subject that I actually was able to understand! Well done. I have subscribed to your channel as a result of this video!
Many years ago my father-in-law showed me this method but I'd forgotten how it works....Thank you for the very clear explanation of how to get close to micrometer accurate measurements with the vernier caliper.
The best explanation ever, I cant thank you enough 🌹
From Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
amazing you got the best video about the vernier caliper if you listen closed enough u ll learn something valuable
"DON"T EVEN LOOK AT THE TOP SCALE! Look strictly at the bottom scale." lol

RE the ~6 minute mark in the video: The technique here is sound, but that "lined up" 12 looks a lot more like 20/1000ths to me, or maybe 21. That also correlates better with the relative position of the bottom scale 0 vs. the first major scale mark. In other words, if it was really 12/1000ths you'd expect the bottom 0 to be only about halfway to the first mark on the major scale (12 = roughly half of 25).
My apologies if the camera isn't looking straight on and that's a parallax illusion.
Perfect explanation! Thank you so much! I had no troubles with standard caliper and mics but the Verniers was always confusing. Not anymore thanks to you! This will help out quite a bit with my finer woodworking measures. I owe you one ;)
Thank you for taking the time to make this video and post it. It helped me to understand how to read it. Before watching this I had NO idea how to use one. Thank again.
Good to practice along side digital calipers. I found my grandpa’s old calipers made by Helios. A little dirty but they still work great
Thanks for the vid. I ran into a set of these today and wasn't sure how to read them. Now I do!
great video, you just helped through my fundamental shop skills theory of measurements... you explained it better than my teacher! thanks again!
Excellent video on explaining the scale , thank you for taking the time to produce this .
Awesome its great people take the time to help others!
Thanks for the good word man. It's good knowing that the video is actually helping people out
Thank you sir. I don't use my vernier often so this was a perfect refresher! Peace
I bought a cheap plastic set of vernier calipers ($5 bin at the hardware store) back in 09 and have never thought about using them but maybe I will now
Thanks for the video. I have one of these and you just saved me some money as I don't have to buy a digital caliper.
Your video did the trick. thank you! Subscribed.
best video on how to use this caliper . thank you for making this
I thought it was cool that vernier is pronounced differently where you grew up from where I grew up. We pronounced it 'vər-nē-ər in three syllables. I love the way language shifts and morphs.
Thanks for the video. The 1st reading was off by .004 but the second reading was the same as my reading. The concept was correct. Someone seemed confused after watching your video and may be because the vernier caliper takes practice to master. I personally like the dial caliper but use both vernier and dial to confirm my readings. Digital calipers are for quicker measuring but not as accurate +/- .005 difference sometimes.
Fantastic video thank for the multiple explanations.
This is a great video you make it very easy to understand!
awesome
Thanks for making this video! My science exam is Tommorow and I needed this 😁
First off, GREAT VIDEO. I'm studying some machining courses but I've been out for a bit and needed a refresher. You did a great job with this, the ONLY thing I can say that would help would be to add a few annotations to make it easier to keep up with. Other than that, fantastic job. Maybe you should consider a job as an instructor to help those trying to get their certification. You'd be pretty good.
Best explanation yet! Do you have a mm video?
One clarification needed please ?? When reading the 25 scale do you move along to the right until the first marks that just barely meet at the corners of the marks or do you go until you find marks that are perfectly square on ?? Thank you in advance for your reply.
Salute this man,,,with simple and brilliant explanation,,,,,easy to understand.....may god bless
Good job of explaining, thank you for taking the time to make the vid.
Awesome refresher video! Thank you.
very clear explanation..thanks you sir..in havibg trouble reading measurement using vernier caliper..until now..=)
Very great video! Helped me a lot!
thanks man because of you i finally learned how to read a vernier calliper
Thanks for the vid! I could not remember how to read these :P
Great video. This helped me a lot. thanks.
I like your video, it helped me understand how to read a venier caliper.
Great video! Thanks!
I never had this explained to me
Many thanks
short answer: physics --- the device requires no other energy than the mind and talent - digital tends to fail and provides false data if current source is not constant -- and requires calibration/replacement once a tool has been even slightly subjected to impact, and finally, digital is just a sample --- Am still using a Vernier caliper made some 60 years ago.
thanks its refresh my memory i already forgot how to read it but now i remember thank you :D
Taking a class in dimensional inspection. This is helping my dumb brain.. THANK YOU
The technique was just a refresher and knowledge about the vernier calliper
Very,very helpful. Thank you very much!
i too would like to thank you for the refresher course.....i too subcribed.
Thank you very much for this video. I am reviewing for my Workshop Exam - very helpful!
We learnt this in class and I just needed reminding but you actually explained the scales etc much more clearly than my teacher haha.
Jeez, this is easy. Thanks. My teacher made this harder than it actually is.
thank you very much!
I agree with you, but there are instances (like mine) where the measurements are taken in wet areas so digital becomes unfeasible..
Most VERY large calipers are still vernier. The vernier type with the 50 scale is by far the best way to go. If you ever get a chance to see the 25 and 50 side by side, you will wonder why they even make the 25 scale type.
Ur a good man !! Thank u sir
Great help
You should make an eye control. :)
These work as well as digital or dial. Used vernier calipers for years until digital came down to a reasonable price. Still use my vernier. It's better for some jobs.
Thanks a lot sir .
Great video! Thank you for teaching me how to read a caliper! Very helpful! I can't believe all of the tangential and whiny comments on the comment board.
Because a manual one is just as accurate when corretly used. And you don't need to worry about batteries.
Thank you!
there no upper scale in my caliper...how to measure now??
Thank you sir !
Wow awesome camera resultss..1!
wow, it is a valuable information : thank you
thank you sir
amazing
He says the 12 lines up? looks more like the 17 lines up to me.
RC Ward I made it about 17 or 18 too
thank you! :)
Hi, thanks for teaching me this, now I get it. The ding dogs who made dumb coments about, no body uses inches etc or inches went out with the dinosaurs are just the usual bunch of youtube pinheads. The only reason someone would watch this excellent video is because they needed to understand working in 1000th of inches. I am working on a 1930s car, which is built in inches. So preferring to use mm is as stupid as trying to run a steam engine off a USB port.
Thanks a lot :D
thank u very much sir.
When you are saying for example 0.025 is that not hundredths of an inch and would 0.0025 be thousandths since the third decimal place is where thousandths starts? After all this caliper does measure up to ten thousandths of an inch. Am I wrong or right anyone?
Umm, you're misunderstanding.
The scale is in 1/1000th's of an inch.
That means you have no more than 3 decimal places, therefore your smallest measurement 1/1000 of an inch as a decimal is: 0.001
Your initial number of 0.025 is:
~5/1000th's of an inch = 0.005 (also can be read as 1/2 of 1/100th of an inch)
~20/1000th's of an inch = 0.020 (also can be read as 2/100th's of an inch)
And if added is: 0.025 (also can be read as 2.5/100th's of an inch)
Now as to any calipers for 1/10,000 of an inch, typically because of the difficulty with the transition between standard measures and imagine how difficult it would be trying to even measure anything smaller than 1/1000 of an inch?
So we go with the metric system and use microns, or thousandths of a millimetre.
I hope this helped.
(Addendum): As to your question for ten thousandths of an inch, I neglected to mention that it's used with most micrometer calipers. Apologies for any confusion.
muchas gracias viejo
Thank yooooooouuuuu!
you are shivering
got it thanks
I confused,about the 25 or zeros. I'm a learning? Gsh help please!,, or let's get the digital
Blurred video. Please reload with clear images.
Thankyou☺️✌🏼
This dude was too nervous
And he needed another drink
best man!!!!!!!!!!!
But the video is goood. Really helps (y)
Thumbs up for the vibrating fingers :D
Hell yeah bro need another drink..
ty
Good idea. Too bad I can't think of these things before I make them...
So i'm at the local homecenter and I ask the clerk for a decimal inch tape measure. He says "what is that?", and I say "a tape measure where each inch is broken into tenths instead of halves quarters and eighths". He then says, "you can't divide an inch into tenths".....Anyone know what the official name of this scale is? My drafting classes were many moons ago.
Inches in 1/10's are what is written on American blueprints. ie. 1.125 = 1_1/8"
I take that back it's the 19 that lines up.
RC Ward I’d have to say 18
how come there so many views when the comments are negative. Thanks though nice vid
Good
I guess I am a Dinosaur. Thanks Triden 55
It is Vernier, not veneer. Vernier (with an R) comes from the Frenchman who invented the bottom scale to increase precision. Veneer is a very thin wood sheet that is glued on top of crappy wood products to sell them at a higher price to the masses.
And use a stick to point things out. The fat finger covers up half the screen and the uncontrolled shaking is dizzying at such great zoom in factor.
You don't seem the type that should normally find their way to this video. Did your dad leave his youtube page open or did you misspell "my little pony"?
Council from Russia - wear gloves - heating tool causes its expansion, which introduces an error in the accurate of measurement
+MARK K yeah but it's usually not such a great expansion and this isn't exactly for scientific purposes.
.019" of an inch
I almost understand, but I can't .hmp soo much to learn
0:00
i didnt really get the understanding of this how to read a vernier caliper so thiis didnt help me
IF YOU WISH TO EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO A VIEWER IN A CLASS OR OTHERWISE THE SUBJECT MATERIAL MUST BE TRUE TO THE VIEW OF THE CLASS, THE VIEWER HAS NO RELAVANCE TO AN INSTRUCTORS VIEW, WHY BOTHER "SHOWING" SOMETHING THAT IS NOT CORRECT TO THE VIEWER. A VERBAL OR TEXT EXPLANATION WOULD DO AS WELL, LET THE CLASS IMAGINATION PROVIDE WHAT IT NEEDS OR THE BASES FOR QUESTIONS.
LLuE88 don't need to yell
I have test using one....
Nice vid, but inches! who the hell still works in inches! the imperial measurement scale went out with the dinosaurs.
Bud thanks for the effort, but your stage fright is palpable... so i will look further.
