Identify SWA

A micrometer with which you could measure 1 strand is one thing, but a vernier calliper gauge is a pretty basic tool.
Is that actually still the case? AFAICS, most calipers around these days have similar resolution to micrometers (generally 0.01mm for 'standard' instruments) and, of course, many have the advantages of being able to measure over greater distances and, sometimes, internal as well as external dimensions.

I meant basic in the sense of everybody should have one. Basic vs unusual/specialist/esoteric. Probably not the most precise word, but there ya go.

Ah - as you will realise, I misunderstood what you had written. I thought you were 'downplaying' the value of calipers.
