Fowler dial bore gauge?
Hi,
Im going to buy a dial bore gauge and wonder if any of you are familiar with a brand called Fowler tools, they are about 1/3 of a Mitutoyo unit.
thanks!
Have Fun!

my experiance with fowler is there affordable, downsize being under extended use there tools seem to fail much earlier then Mitutoyo, if its just for casual garage usage i would say buy it, with these kind of tools you get what you pay for.

Even a good used Mit will outlast a fowler, I'm sure you will be fine.
