Insert a small C-clip washer under your Caliper's thumb screw to remove the cheap "wobble" from low end budget calipers. Make yours feel like a Mitutoyo caliper!
Just remove the thumbscrew wheel and attach the c-clip washer on the thumbscrew axle, and reassemble your caliper for an improved feel!
Attached is the Fusion 360 file if you need to modify yours to your needs (if you need to make it thinner or widen the center hole).
Recommend print settings: 0.2mm layer height, Concentric top and bottom patterns.
Test the c-clip on both sides of the thumb screw to test for the smoothest rolling.
You may have to scale down the model only by the Z axis to make the washer thinner or thicker. This is a very quick print, so adjust the STL model scale as many times as you need.
