11:40 Metric reading

I am 60 years. Still learning. No time limits to learn. Learning things our whole life.

You “DEFINITELY” and example of a good teacher … breaking everything down in more simpler way!!!! Thank you Sir 👌💯

I used to work for a subsidiary company of McDonald Douglas in the early 70s as Machinist I machine parts for the DC-10 you don't know what pressure is until you have an FAA inspector working alongside you I changed careers became a finish Carpenter now I'm retired thanks for this refresher course it will help me when I start to rebuild my off-road trucks engines

I am an engineer and have been reading mic's for years. You have made this task much easier for many I would assume, especially in this digital age where most digital callipers are not as accurate as micrometers. First class video.

I'm a CNC milling machine operator, I'm new to having to read micrometers you have made this seem rather simple. Hopefully now I won't be a ball of confusion when trying to measure my parts 🤞🏽 Thankyou!

Well done, I just stumbled on this and decided to do a refresher ( it’s been 50 years since I read one) you had me organized immediately, nice clear concise instructions.

Thank you very much. I loved my father may he rest in peace (who was a machinest) so much that I wanted to work with him all day. In high school I took metal shop and I worked my way thru college for 6 years. I always had a hard time with micrometers. You explained it very nicely. I still have his tool chest from 70 years ago and all of his tools say "made in America".

I was never taught how to read a micrometer and these HF models don't come with any instructions so your video was extremely helpful. Clear and concise with good examples. Thank you for making this!

Awesome explanation Stuart, I have been watching a lot of this type of videos. Your explanation is the best I have seen. Finally understand my micrometer. Thanks!

I found this immeasurably helpful ! Precision quality video, on a scale of its own right down to the finite detail, sir !

Great video. Just ordered a micrometer. Been realizing I needed one in my shop. They are definitely handy to have. My first job was at an automotive machine shop. I use to use them all the time. But that was 20 years ago. Kinda forgot how to do it. One watch of your video, it all came back to me. Keep up the excellent work man.

First video I clicked when I looked up "how to read micrometers". Very great video!! Definitely explained it easily enough to understand it!

FINALLY. Someone who actually teaches and explains. Nobody else actually learns you how, not even the manufacturers. They just kinda throw about 1/4 of what you need in your general vicinity. THANK YOU SIR

Appreciate it brother! Goin back into CNC milling & lathe work tomorrow morning after 25 years of automotive technician repair. I've done this work before about 22 years ago so i really needed a refreshers course on the micrometer readings again. 10:36 minute mark was all i needed. This brings back even the metric memory stuff. Thanks a ton friend. Greatly appreciate these important videos!!

This is opening up a whole new world to me and is making me appreciate my grandfather more being that he was a master machinist and had many calipers like these laying around his shop

This was a remarkably clear and concise explanation. For what ever reason, my nervous self had frequent brain farts using this at my A&P school and the teachers were not often clear on how to use them. A very helpful video to reference for my refresher course before my United Airlines interview the other day. Excellent work.

The best explanation I've seen on micrometers,thank you.

Excellently done, finally someone who can explain the readings, tenths , thousands, ten thousands.. Thx very much

A simple 16 min video taught me more than my professor, ain’t that some shit haha

Great job. I really appreciate you taking your time to explain this application.

Thank you so much for explaining how to read the measurements so clearly. Great video!!

Thank you so much Stuart, I could have used this a week ago while starting a new job. My "trainer" gave me 30 seconds of training and said go for it and left me WAY confused. I know I'm better off now.

Thank you for the course on reading a micrometer. I'm getting into a detailed engine rebuild of a small engine and this is invaluable to make sure I order the correct piston. Thank you!

I'm a metric guy from the UK but I recently got and old (1950s) American truck and of course all the critical engine dimensions are in Imperial. So this video was spectacularly useful! As I had no clue how to read an imperial mic. Now I do. So easy to follow and understand. Thank you

Great explanation. Thank you! definitely hit the nail on the head for common mistakes. Thanks for clarifying.

What memories! I worked tool & die 40+ years ago. From corvette dashboards, to plastic hip sockets and stainless steel backbones, to CNC fighter jet hydraulic blocks. Fond memories.

The best explanation I have ever seen on how to read Inch micrometers.

I'm in my 50s, and I've finally learned how to read micrometers. Thanks!

Perfect. Needed a good measurement and got my dad’s old mics out. Got it figured out first time through. Thanks for posting

Excellent explanation. Always wanted to know how to read a micrometer correctly. Thankyou, regards from 🇦🇺 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you for posting this video. I'm in an intro to Ag mechanics class and have to be able to read this for test purposes. You explained this a little better than my current teacher. Thanks again!

Very good video. Learned how to read them back in high school but when you don’t use them since then well…… Thanks for sharing some experience. Much appreciated!

Thank you. I recently got a promotion into bearing inspection. I was really apprehensive but told, it's no big deal... we'll teach you what you need to know. So I took the job but they didn't really teach me how to read the mics properly and I fumble on my own. This video will help.

I'm in college right now and right now i have learned more from you than i ever did in class. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

I always wanted to figure out how to read micrometers. You make it so easy to learn.

Totally superb tutorial. Have used mics for years but still learned something, thank you sir.

I HAVE USED ONE A LITTLE BUT NEVER HAD ANY ONE EXPLAIN HOW AND WHY NOW IT MAKES SENSE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.

Getting a job that involves these. Thank you for explaining this, it makes alot of sense.

Thank you for the tutorial,it was easily understandable and your video was also done with care so that viewers can easily see the small readings you were explaining.Thankyou again for your effort and time.

Thank you so very much for imparting this knowledge. Your method is so much simpler. One can only imagine how difficult the FAA General aircraft mechanic knowledge guide can be... Given the FAA wrote the material. A mystery solved.

You explained this very well. Thank you.

Thanks for the video, it answered all my questions.

This video helped me understand so much better than my teacher could. Thank you for creating this!

This is the best I've ever seen so far about reading micrometer. Thank you 😊

Doing a micrometer reading test for school, this was the perfect refresher! Thank you!

Wow thank you so much. My new job requires to use these and I had no idea how to use. I'm sure they'll be asking if I'm familiar and now I'm much more comfortable with my answer. I'll watch again tomorrow to keep refreshing myself.

Excellent instruction for my wife and I. Thank you Stuart.

Very good and clear explanation. especially the mistakes...that I have done looking at the video just one second before you clarify that 🙂

Wow this is so much easier than I had thought. Thank you for making this material so accessible!

Very good in years of Millwright work I can honestly say that was the best explanation of the veneer line. You have no idea how many gifts millwrights will not carry out to .1000 this can be an issue. Sweating hubs really comes to mind.

Thank you. You are/were a great teacher and I am sure you sent a lot of people into the work world with excellent skills.

Thank you! I was trying to learn this from a text book! This video turned mud into water... As in my muddled mind received clarity, yay! I so know how to use one of these now!

When you have to come to this video because your teacher doesn't teach like this. 👍

Excellent video. Pointing at scale with the pencil as you explained made it easier for me to understand. Some of the other videos just turn the thimble and talk. If your new to reading a micrometer it harder to understand. Nice job, now I understand. Thanks

Thanks so much. I thought I’d watch as a refresher, then discovered how much I didn’t know / had forgotten.

Excellently articulated with excellent examples. Thank you.

Been using digital only, was never shown how to read these guys. Very informative video, thanks for sharing!

Many thanks for refreshing my memory I have not had to use my micrometer for some time now. cheers buddy.

Thank for the video. I had a class about that yesterday and couldn't figure out how to read this and I have a test about it today and after watching your video I am quite confidente.

Wow you are a legend. Thanks a bunch for posting this straight-forward tutorial.

Thank you for this video, it has helped me completely understand the use of these micrometers!!!

Slightly more precise than my 25 ft tape measure... Great instruction on reading a mic. Thanks for posting!

Such a detailed explanation! Thank you for mentioning the common mistakes associated.

thank you man! at first I hated the inch micrometers because I couldn't understand it and the professor didn't help that much. NOW it's a piece of cake for me because of you. THANK YOU!

This is the best explanation to date that was easy to follow! Thanks. I had a measurements in MM for engine shim buckets, and the way I was reading it wasn't getting me close to the converted IN measurements I was getting with my Micrometer. Very frustrating, after I saw this video I got much closer. The bucket shim (when new) said it was supposed to be 4.80 mm, and after measuring it I got 0.1883 in or 4.78282 mm which is very close and could be accurate because of the wear on the part. All these other videos get into screw thread ratios and twists, good god... No one needs to know all that background stuff in order to read it. Now If I was a trying to reverse engineer the micrometer...then that would be nice to know.

You are the best because your intention is good. You wanted us to learn and we did. You are a teacher. THANKS

This was a really helpful video. You broke it down and made it simple, now I feel far more confident in measuring my bearings! Thanks!

Dude,...my production professor made it sound like opening a puzzle box! You made it so simple..Thank You!!

thank you for clear explanation, it helps me a lot. nice job!!!

The best how-to video I've seen in 2020!!!!!

I will use this moving forward in a job opportunity. Thanks for the information. Very helpful

I love this video! Going to school to be a welder but have a class in the damn machine shop! Sold the 1955 Atlas lathe but kept the measuring tools,just never needed to learn to read mikes until now. EZ PZ My instructor might be slightly impressed! Thank You!!

thank you i just watched a UTI video explaining it and I was clueless this has helped me alot.

Very informative Video, Thank you!! I just bought my first micrometer and need to learn how to properly read it, This was a HUGE help! Thanks again

Your an Excellent Teacher !! Thanks so much ! Easy to understand now

I never read a micrometer in my life. But I'm planning on buying a lathe. this video was in the recommended area. and I found it very informative. Thanks for the video.

First one I found to explain how to read...great job. Thank you.

Excellent and clear explanation - saw a metric mic for the first time and was scratching my head...

Very good video! well spoken and informative. Thank you for the upload, it helped a lot

Wow it’s funny how I assumed I had it right and was instantly corrected, great teacher 🙌💯

I took this class in advanced manufacturing we had a quiz on how to use one of these this was very helpful!

I'm starting a new job after not handling a Mic in over 40 years. Thanks for the refresher. I have never worked with mm.

Profesor in my school cant teach like this, even explain well, but this video more on explanation,you will get it! Love it..

That was very clear and simple instruction. Thank you!

Watch this couples times a month to brush up, don't get to use these daily, very helpful in my Mercury outboard restorations, keeping all in spec.

Circa 1978 I could read a Micrometer in machine shop have not read one since and I was pretty good. Thank you for this vid I am reminiscing.

Thank you. You have made more sense than my course instructor

Old Tool and die maker tip: On the small 0-1”, 1”-2” Mike I am right handed so I take my 0-1” in my right palm and loop my pinky finger around the frame of the mic. Now a have I positive grip with my pinky my thumb and index finger to spin the barrel for an accurate measurement and you never slip and drop your expensive mic.

Your the best after I watched this I finally can explain how read micrometer to my instructor teacher 👨‍🏫 🙂🙂❤️❤️

Awesome thank you... like reading old analog clock the second hand will tell you where the minute hand and that tells you where the hour hand is

I have just learned something new. As a hobbyist. Thanks. Super easy to understand.

Excellent ! Very clear and well explained. Thanks a lot, Colin UK 🇬🇧

Thank you for this! I tried to learn this years ago, for metal shop, but couldn't grasp it then. Of course, the micrometer was different, but it just wasn't taught very well. This made perfect sense to me

GREAT GREAT video!!!!!!!!!!! Micrometers demystified. makes me want to go out and buy a set and practice measuring. Thank you for making!!!!!

The BEST explanation I've seen! Thanks!

Thankyou that was excellent and very clear! I now feel much happier using a non digital display micrometer.

Thanks for the video, it is a great tool and not used very often (ever) by the common person.

Wow, very good video i never used a micrometer before but after watching this video i surely can now. Thanks.

Thank you very much for this tutorial!! Just purchased my first micrometer set and now have a much better understanding!! Thank you, me and my engine thank you!!!! No worries though, ill have a professional check my measurements lol
