Title: Micrometer Catalogue
Post by: Rick O Shea on October 10, 2016, 05:10:18 AM
Hello All
I have two micrometer questions:
1)  I am seeking a catalogue or  directions to some sort of list that gives the  types and ages of Moore and Wright  micrometers.  I have for years  been gradually accumulating  micrometers Starrett  Shardlow  Brown and Sharpe and M and W. Over the years I have mended a few. I have  to concentrate on the British brands  for the time being,

2) I am also after some either dead or dying ones for spare parts or spare parts so that i can repair a few more.

some pointers on both of the above would be a great help.

very best wishes

Mike

Now that you remind me I did know that but I do not think I have ever seen one in the flesh.

very best wishes

Was that during the silent era? Like the movies now we have talkies!

Hi JD   thanks for that, they do have a few 'for parts' I was hoping that they may have been a bit less costly.
 I have bought other stuff  from G and M in the past, they are not cheap.

Thanks very best wishes

Just a very heartfelt thanks to Bob Krv3000 who has sent me exactly what I have been searching for a M and W catalogue. It just goes to show what nice people there are on this web site.

Thanks Bob
