It's a tool that I don't use everyday but is good to have when you need it, and when you are needing to measure for close tolerances it is better to have the best.
Not so much anymore, years ago when I was real involved in racing I used to mill a lot of engine parts to remove weight and balance the parts so I used it quite a bit then. checking parts for size and clearances. Last time I used it was last year when I rebuilt a engine for my father in law, he has an old 32 Ford hot rod.

Do you do a good bit of close work once-in-a-while?
