The following measurements (given in inches) were made with Starrett dial calipers. These are really made for 0.001" measurements, so that fourth decimal place isn't too accurate (say perhaps to the nearest +/- 0.0002"). Also, I measured 4 parts and (...)

All my pnuematic cylinders are over 10 years old, they don`t seem to work well at all, do seals wear out, or crack due to age? Maybe i`ll need to buy that backhoe to update my cylinders... (21 years ago, 14-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)
