Model Trains 'n Things - Online Tool Shop

Good tools for anyone who wants to get into scratchbuilding are hard to find and no one really specialises in quality scratchbuilding tools for model railroaders.

So here at Model Trains 'n Things we've decided to do something about that. We're looking for reliable suppliers who can supply us with scratchbuilding tools that we can sell to you at a reasonable cost. And we're starting our scratchbuilding tool shop off with a relatively inexpensive vernier caliper for beginners.

Please note - we will only ship within Australia

6" Vernier Dial Caliper

Dial Vernier Caliper


Here is the ideal beginner's 6 inch Vernier Caliper at a price a beginner can afford. Yes it is plastic and you wouldn't want to use one of these for some engineering that your life might depend on but it is an ideal tool for someone who wants to try their hand at scratchbuilding.

  • It measures in millimetres and inches

  • The dial is easy to read ... even for old-timers like me

  • The measurements are clearly printed on the shaft and just as easy to read

  • It's half the price of a metal vernier caliper and the price you see is the price you pay
    there are no hidden costs of postage or shipping!

Make no mistake ... this is a beginner's tool and as you develop your scratchbuilding skills you may want to buy something a little more upmarket ... but if you're just starting out then this 6" vernier dial caliper is an economical way to start building up your toolkit.

Order yours today and start building the toolkit you need for some serious scratchbuilding
