Jan 9, 2012 #1 jdm2008 Industrial Joined Oct 18, 2010 Messages 19 Location US I am looking for an adjusable shaft to measure the perpendicularity of a hole. The problem is that the hole can varry in diameter by quite a bit(.015). The same concept is used in a bore mic but I do not need to actually measure the hole.
