  • See how the numbers work on the dials to measure run-out or out-of-round. The idea works in fractions or decimals, metric or inch-based as well.

    Your voice is so relaxing, also glad you said different ways of saying the numbers, it's frustrating when people assume I know number lingo. Studying for my job so I don't look or say something foolish. Thank you for the refresher!

    Thank you for the explanation. To some it may be boring but I appreciate the way you teach (explain) and leave nothing to guessing. Dont change anything in the way you present these videos except if you could use a pen instead of a sharpie.

    Thank you for the very in depth explanation of using this, and how each part of the dial indicator is used and read. People like me (woodworker) who are not engineers or machinists use these to set the accuracy on our tools. But I had never seen, or used one prior to learning this trade. So this was very helpful! Awesome explanation!

      @apprenticemath  5 лет назад +1

      Thanks for watching. Woodworking tools could be checked for axle, blade, or bit runout to minimize chatter marks and fiber tearout.
      One example is here, although shot on a demolition not a precision tool ruclips.net/video/VS0pIOQEy6M/видео.html

      @mewk 9 лет назад

      I hope you didn't take my comment the wrong way.. I wasn't trying to be malicious. Your video was actually the most helpful for me.
      The dial indicator essentially divides an inch into ~1000 units or 1.000"
      One turn of the dial = 100 units or 0.100"
      Five turns = 500 units or 0.500"
      Nine and a half turns = 950 units or 0.950"
      The small dial usually shows the count of turns out of the available ~10. Your dial seems to only show 5 at a time.

    But I am having trouble why as a fraction ten thousonths of an inch is written 1000 and not 10000.to me how you written 1000 shows me its one thousanths ,could you explain please,

    So if I am trying to find 4 mm BTDC on my engine (to set the ignition timing), and I am using an Imperial dial indicator, a depth of 4 mm would equal .1575" . So .1575" would be roughly the "16" mark on the outer dial. Correct?

    • @apprenticemath
      @apprenticemath  6 лет назад

      Not even close. After 15 full turns "75" mark on the outboard dial.
      (Sorry about the delay)

    • @Ricky-mouser
      @Ricky-mouser 3 года назад

      You are correct that 4mm equals .1575". Drop the last 5 for this is called 1/2 thousandths or tho for short. So you have 157 thousandths. 1 turn is a 100 then go 57 more
