You would've also understood that my frustration with the calipers was never because of their performance (or lack thereof, because I hadn't even tested them,) but because I wasn't able to adjust them properly due to the manufacturer's design and build choices. There's a reason you didn't understand, abd that's because you didn't bother to read what I wrote.
Look who's making assumptions. Just because I'm a newbie on this site, means I have no validity?? I've been posting on another site since 2014. If you read my post, I recommended that you watch 2 YT channels that feature Aliexpress parts. Their videos specifically note when modifications need to be done to make certain parts to work. That in my books is a no go because you essentially voided any manufacturer's warranty. And this is something that is noted in their videos as well. I've reviewed lots of stuff that I've bought on Aliexpress & I've given my honest opinion when I think something is good or not so that other buyers can make an informed decision. When one buys something even when others don't recommend it....well what do you expect as a response???
