I have two of these cheap, metal, unbranded Vernier callipers, and wanted to create a Gridfinity holder for both, plus 4 batteries.
Instead of wasting a print on someone else's design that doesn't fit this model, I decided to waste about 5 prints on designing my own and getting it wrong, but eventually right.
Interestingly, my 2 callipers (exactly the same design) had tiny differences in the length of the jaw, so obviously I used one calliper to measure the other, then one of them didn't fit on the first go…
Anyway hope this is useful for someone. It's a needlessly complicated design, which probably causes more problems than it solves, but that's how my brain works.
ALSO - DISCLAIMER - the batteries were supposed to be friction-fit. I tried a few times to get the tolerances right but once I managed to get the ruddy callipers in, I took a sigh of relief and gave up on the battery holes. They hold batteries, but not exactly with much ingenuity.
