Shoutout to my digital caliper for saving a $200 panel today

Was building a custom cabinet for a weird alcove in a house near Nashville. The customer's wall was out of square by almost a quarter inch over 4 feet. Instead of guessing and hoping, I measured each section 3 times with my Mitutoyo caliper and adjusted the dados accordingly. Everything fit perfect on the first try during install this afternoon. Anyone else ever have a measurement tool bail you out of a major redo?

Honestly never thought to use a caliper for dados, that's actually brilliant.

Wait you mean like to measure the depth or check the width?
