That $200 edge finder I mocked ended up being worth every bit

I used to think the fancy digital edge finders were a waste compared to my old wiggle style. After picking one up for a job in Toledo last month, I measured 40 parts without a single touching-off slip. Anyone else switch from the classic method and never look back?

Forty parts without a single slip? That's wild, honestly. My old wiggle style still gives me the jitters on tight tolerances, so hearing that kind of consistency blows my mind a little. I always figured the digital ones were just a gimmick for people with more money than sense, but maybe I've been stubborn about it. The fact you measured forty in a row, that's a solid workday for most setups. Guess I owe that edge finder an apology, or at least a second look next time I'm at the supply house.
