Turn the barrel or friction screw to close the rods around the object to be measured. The rods should lightly touch the object between them but not clamp down on it.here are 50 such marks, meaning that each turn of the thimble corresponds to half a millimeter, the distance between the upward and downward marks on the cylinder central line. Add these values together. This is the measurement of the object between the measuring rods.
