MACHINE SHOP METROLOGY #2, how to use rulers, surface plates, joe (gauge) blocks and dial indicators

Second of a three part video series that introduce the novice machinist to metrology (the scientific study of measurement). More specifically, this video introduces us to RULERS, SURFACE PLATES, JOE BLOCKS AND DIAL INDICATORS. As for all THATLAZYMACHINIST videos, this video is produced for novice , garage or beginner machinists. You can find all my videos as well as project drawings and course notes on my website http://www.thatlazymachinist.com/

Thanks for understanding that I am a professional toolmaker and teacher but I am not a professional video producer (and it shows). I produce these videos for fun as a little retirement project that lets me give back a little of what was passed on to me by so many amazing trades people most of whom, sadly, are no longer with us.
