Discussions — Gridfinity Caliper Holder

Just as a heads up - Metallic sharpies say to store tip down - They'll dry up/"clog" if stored tip up. (over time)

Strange. I have a Mitutoyo 500-197-30 Absolute Digimatic (CD-8" ASX) model and it is nowhere close to fitting into the printed part :(

The jaws are quite a bit "taller" (pointy bit to pointy bit is 90mm) than the slot. So I doubt it would fit a 12" set as stated in description, unless 6 and 12 are both older/smaller jaws and only 8" is larger?

The cutout is pretty close to fitting some cheap iGaging calipers from Harbor Freight though. Those are 6-in calipers with 76mm wide jaws...

ridiculous

Not a great fit for my 500-196-20. The jaws fit very snug and there is no recess for the in/mm button, so you always have to push it in and when lifting it out it takes the whole module with it. Close to greatness, but not quite there.

Thanks a ton for the model! Love the gridfinity system. I remixed this model to include a "bridging fix" for the magnet holes. I included an F3D source as well if you want to update yours to include the same fix. https://www.printables.com/model/464090-gridfinity-mitutoyo-caliper-holder-wbridging-fix

Thanks for a great model! Been using this for a month now, and just did a remix of it so that it would hold a fillet gauge and steel ruler: https://thangs.com/designer/emmett.pickerel/3d-model/Mitutoyo%20Holder%20remix-651999

jeev hahaha you troll

Thanks, Zack! Best, Stu

My Husky brand digital caliper fits perfectly without any modification to the part!

Thank you for your hard work on all of this. This caliper holder works great.

Is someone able to modify this for the cheaper NEIKO brand one? Its not really a perfect fit. Im tempted to make a joke about my cheap caliper not being able to take proper measurements to do it myself lol

Thank you, Zack! This was one of the pieces I was most excited to see in the video, and it's working great for me!
