I've used micrometers/vernier calipers for almost 50 years now (since I was a kid - my father had a machine shop), and I like to think that I'm fairly proficient in their usage. I always have to guard against being _too_ fast, however. I always take at least two readings on each piece of wire to eliminate the possibility of error due to corrosion, kink or natural arc of the wire. Any one of them can change the gage of wire you think you need. YMMV, of course. Conrad Hoffsommer All I ask is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.
