this is A very specific question so I may not get an answer but figured it wouldnt hurt to ask.
I have the Mitutoyo 511-931-20 dial bore gage set. I was looking to pick up a setting fixture but didn’t really want to spend almost $2k on the mitutoyo fixture. I saw that both starrett and Fowler have one that’s more in my price range. In the photos of each fixture it shows a bore gage with the wheels like my Mitutoyo has. My concern is that there is a difference in some dimensional difference in the wheels themselves or the way they are arranged on the tool causing it to not be accurate. Any one have any useful insight?
