> 3 dayAt $10, its hard to believe this is really a Mitutoyo branded tool, but it is. Quality is fantastic, very precise and repeatable, down to about a hundredth of a millimeter (as far as I can take it). I much prefer the cylinder style edge finders to the conical style edge/center finders. Its good to have one of the conical type in your toolbox for occasional use on small holes, but 99.9% of the time, this is the one Im reaching for.

Greater than one weekWorks as advertised. It will find the edge of a work-piece within .001-.002 consistently. I recently used it to relocate a hole that needed a deeper counterbore so I used the edger finder to get me in the ball park. After dial indicating the hole the DRO showed the difference to be .001 on the Y axis and .002 on the X. Great tool!

02-04-2025I bought this because the budget version I was using was wearing out or somehow got damaged. This is somewhat more expensive, but not by that much, and it just works better. The motion of the head at the edge point is significantly more, so easier to see, and when you back off a little, it comes right back to the center. For work with students, who dont always take it as slow as they should, this makes a big difference.

01-04-2025Edge finder works But i would gladly pay the extra $12 and get a starett! Dont get me wrong mitutoyo rocks for almost all measuring tools but for conventional edge finders Starett is literally the only one i will touch. Starett has .0002 repeatedly that is amazing for a edge finder this here mitutoyo hardly gets .0008 which may be good for some but if you are gonna start your setup off already everything else you do will be off by at least that much! It is such a small price to pay for accuracy! I have a $400 Haimer 3d taster and 5 interapids and i still need a conventional edge finder and that is a starett. $25 well spent!!

> 3 dayGood edge finder, reads spot on with my Lagune DRO. It does leave a slight mark on softer materials (aluminum/plastics) unlike my Starrett though, not sure why this is and am docking it a star for the issue.
