I am rather interested in what brands of tools everybody uses in there shop. ive seen lots of shops use mitutoyo but my shop uses just as much Fowler as mitutoyo and how does that compare to other shops. if i didn't include your brand please leave a comment.
Hexagon is a huge conglomerate that owns reputable brands like Brown and Sharpe, Etalon, and Tesa.
I voted Mitutoyo as that's what we have most of but swiss premium really does stand out. Etalon is top top end but they make only a select variety of measurement tools. And unfortunately Brown&Sharpe is slowly falling towards the Starret line (lower quality, value focused items).
