Dial Caliper easier to read than Digital.

I was thrilled to acquire a digital caliper many years ago.  It lived right by my thickness planer and received regular use.  Recently, though, I started using this fractional dial caliper and it is making a huge difference.  Looking at the big, clear dial instantly lets me know how close I am to were I want to be.  Gone are the days of having to convert decimals to fractions, and best of all, no more dying or dead button batteries.
