I had a Fowler dial caliper that I was reasonably satisfied with, but now need to replace it as the spaniel knocked it on the floor this morning. Spent most of the day trying to rezero it (the calipers) without success.

I had a cheap digital prior to the dial caliper but it failed after a couple of years. Display blinked random numbers despite replacing the batteries.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent caliper in the less than $100 range?

Thanks.

If you can't be a good example, may you at least serve as a dreadful warning
