Vector 3D | How Much for Good Callipers? I Tested 20 So You Don't Have To @Vector3DP | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
I spent my own money buying 20 different callipers off AliExpress ranging from 76p up to £34 and I tested them to find out which are worth spending your money on. So today I’m going to share the results of my experiments, give out some fun awards, and share my favourites. My goal in this article is to help you, a 3D printing hobbyist, find the right callipers for doing jobs like printer calibration and reverse engineering.
