When you want to re-engrave the grooves in a plastic model but aren't sure which tool width is right, you can lay the ruler over the area you want to measure, as shown in the diagram, and find the matching width. This is more accurate than the old method of physically testing the groove with a tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinting extremely fine lines, as thin as 0.05mm (MCG-01 only), took highly skilled plate-making. Conventional plates couldn't print such fine lines accurately, leaving them thicker than specified or blurred. Microgauge was developed in collaboration with a local printing company that specializes in high-precision plate making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can also measure small diameters and circular shapes. When you're looking for the right size of circular masking tape (sold separately), the Microgauge makes measuring easy. The product comes in a protective transparent bag; please remove it from the bag before use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HiQ Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53604821369141,"sku":"MCG-01","price":500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/8923\/4741\/files\/Micro_Gauge_1.jpg?v=1789726252","url":"https:\/\/kittomaru.com\/products\/hiq-parts-micro-gauge-1-for-0-05-to-2-3mm-mcg-01","provider":"KittoMaru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
