"The longest-lived micrometer than can be bought." J.T. Slocomb micrometers and stand, all fully restored by myself. Each mic is between 70-120 years old, and they're all still accurate.zyzzogeton t1_j93of6q wrote

Adam Savage has some interesting discussions about his journey towards precision. Pask has a similar kind of arc as well on his channel. The hallmark of craftsmen is that their tastes become more and more exacting over time. The tools needed to accomplish that become more and more specialized and beautiful too.

I've enjoyed Adam Savage's journey. Wild to see someone I admire so much, have the same kinds of struggles and learning experiences that I have.
